I find that iOS 15 has very few bugs or at least very few serious bugs. I have an iPhone 11 so I don't know if other hardware has different issues, but I have no problems with the wallet, no issues with the share sheet and I just fixed the app switcher problem where flicking left sometimes doesn't say which app you are on by turning off Reduced Motion, this can be found in Voiceover Settings > Motion

I hope you enjoy your new phone. A friend of mine told me not to get it yet because all the bugs need to be ironed out in 15. I want to get the new phone that is labeled as Pro Max.

(For those who do not get the reference of the subject line, I will post a link to a Wikipedia article at the end of this email.) Yes, UPS made good on the text Saturday morning letting me know that my package would be delivered today, not Monday. We had just helped a friend setup her new iPhone 12 Pro with the wireless data transfer from her old 6S, so I was sure my experience would be similar… You know what happens when you assume?... After 2 hours and a couple of failed attempts, I called Apple Accessibility. I got a wonderful woman named Regina, who was more than happy to sit with us through this process. Of course, it failed for her too. Then, she had us reboot both my SE 2020 and the new iPhone 13 pro and this time, the process went very smoothly. I was afraid I would have to truly start from scratch, but it went much faster and got everything trasnferred over. I think the fancy new screen may make a little difference in swiping. It is quite responsive, but that could also be just the new chip. I bought an inexpensive ESR clear case for it, which fits very nicely. The case came with a surprise; a stand. It is like the decrotive plate holders, a plastic V with knotches near the end of each half and it hinges at one end and when you spread the sides open, the phone sits at a nice angle in landscape mode. I’m listing the observations/opinions in no particular order below. The Sound. Well, I was expecting better sound. I was not expecting this quality of sound. When in that little stand that came with the case, sitting at my desk about 2 feet in front of the phone, the stereo separation is very clear and the sound quality is quite impressive. Now, my SE 2020 I got last year, had significantly better sound than the SE first generation and of course, had the stereo if you had your nose about on the display. The 13 Pro sounds way better than the SE second generation. Bigger, clearer, and while the phone is only slightly longer than the SE second generation, the separation is noticeably better. I never heard the 11 or 12 pro, so maybe they are as good, but I’m quite impressed. Setting up Face ID was very easy. VoiceOver walks you through the setup with good directions. Best yet, at the end of the setup, it lets you know that the requires attention is turned off for VoiceOver users but you can turn it on if you wish. I wouldn’t do that. That requires very specific focus rather than just some of your face being seen by the camera. It makes unlocking the phone quite fast. I won’t guess at battery life for at least a week after I’ve used it a fair amount. My wife wathced a video on inserting the Nano SIM from my SE 2020 into the 13 Pro because she could not get it to fit. It goes in upside down from the way it was in the SE 2020. Then, it works fine. I am on Xfinity, and I could make calls, receive calls, etc., once the Sim was in and I rebooted to make sure. I will call them later to see if they need anything like the IMEI number, etc. I’m having a few issues with mBraille but that is probably me getting used to the larger screen, but I’m not sure yet. I used Super LIDAR from SuperSense briefly this morning. Very promising. One thing it does that might be nice for low-vision/blind going somewhere on their own, if it sees a person without a mask, it will tell you “person without a mask.” I think I’d want a lanyard, harness, something that would make it so I don’t have to hold the phone pointed ahead of me to use that feature, or any other LIDAR feature. I have some settings to still go through and some apps to log into again, but so far, I really like the phone a lot and know I won’t need or want another phone for several years.
