Sorry about that, Richard, I thought I had added my reply to the correct message. And, I thought Deidre was talking about the new, just received SE.

Deidre is using an iPhone 6s, while considering a new phone, possibly the new SE. If you are talking about the new iPhone SE, I'm certainly not having any issues with it, and Deidre doesn't have the SE, but is dealing with the 6s issues and/or iOS 13 issues. I personally love the new SE. Richard Linus to Charlie Brown: "Worrying won't stop the bad stuff from happening, it just stops you from enjoying the good."
