I don't know about others, but I didn't receive the update. A prematurely written and published article?
So I got the update
Weird. And do you have updates turned on?
Is it clicking for anyone when it's already 16.2? Why don't you delete the old articles?
So again a prematurely written comment
I still don't see Matter support anywhere. Settings/general/… should be visible. – under carplay, but I don't have it there. IP13Pro

And has anyone noticed a difference in battery life between the 15/16.1 and 15/16.1 versions? I went from 13k to 13 on the iPhone XNUMX Mini and the battery life went down pretty quickly. Which, considering the recent switch to XNUMX mini because of the battery, is quite annoying...
