Will it stop my iPhone 11 pro from getting hot? I suspect not, but I'll download it anyway. Thanks for the heads up

I was hoping a fix to allow you to actually delete emails from gmail accounts via the ios mail app. No such luck. They all get archived.

This is configured in your gmail account settings on your phone - make-swiping-delete-or-archive-for-gmail-in-iphone-mail-1172548

 

When I used gmail I always made this change.

I am reluctant to install any more ios updates after such a massive fail on Apples behalf. I dont know anyone with an iphone that hasnt had issues since 13 dropped. Their lack of communication on the whole issue is also a fail. SOm many people must have wasted countless hours refreshing etc.

I figure it can't get any worse so might as well install it.

 

 

Hoping it fixes mobile data usage for me, which results in most of my data being used in 'system services' for 'home screen', 'itunes accounts' and a few others. Crazy wastage. Keeping mobile data off all the time now until I need it, and double checking it's off before using itunes

I'm still getting mail refresh issues (get a notification of new mail, but doesn't show in inbox and have to refresh), hopefully this resolves them. Also, even apps that have mobile data turned off still use it - you can see the data used by the app increase when you open it.

Thanks, I have it set as delete already, but it still archives. I've read somewhere that it's a current bug.

I am extremely angry about the whole iOS 13 fiasco, but I will install this update because I expect it will be focused on bug fixes. I won't ever install a major update (i.e. iOS 14) ever again though.

 

My main outstanding issues are:

 

  • Mail app intermittently failing to delivery notifications.
  • Apps (particularly books and podcasts) freezing on startup.

I get the opposite. You get the notification, but nothing shows in the inbox until a manual refresh. Has been like this since iOS 13.

I think I would prefer to have your problem. I am often unaware that I have received an email until I sit down at my laptop at the end of the day.

If you are checking mail on an account that uses Fetch rather than Push then setting it to check every 15 minutes instead of Automatically. This guarantees it will go looking for mail so the longest you should ever have to wait is quarter of an hour, and if you know you should have an email then you can always manually refresh the app.

Here’s the official bug fix list (from my iPhone pre ipdate)

iOS 13.3.1 includes bug fixes and improvements. This update:
Fixes an issue in Communication Limits that could allow a contact to be added without entering the Screen Time passcode
Adds a setting to control the use of location services by the U1 Ultra Wideband chip
Addresses an issue that could cause a momentary delay before editing a Deep Fusion photo taken on iPhone 11 or iPhone 11 Pro
Resolves an issue with Mail that could cause remote images to load even when the “Load Remote Images” setting is disabled
Fixes an issue that could cause multiple undo dialogues to appear in Mail
Addresses an issue where FaceTime could use the rear facing ultra-wide camera instead of the wide camera
Resolves an issue where push notifications could fail to be delivered over Wi-Fi
Addresses a CarPlay issue that could cause distorted sound when making phone calls in certain vehicles
Introduces support for Indian English Siri voices for HomePod

The affected account is set to push, not fetch.

 

I have no muted conversations and the problem is sporadic, so I'm pretty convinced it's a bug.

Good luck with that!

 

 

I spent a year keeping ios11 off my 6 a year or two ago. It was an exercise in frustration and probabaly had to delete the update a dozen times at least - hard to keep remembering to keep wifi off when charging.

 

 

I think my backup 6 with ios12 on it might become my daily driver if the mobile data issue isn't resolved...
