Your report may provide crucial information. The more reports they receive, the higher the priority they give to fixing the bug.

The only annoying bugs I have is VoiceOver basically jumbling over and when it comes to words and the fact I can’t use any of the editing actions any more.

amazing! now beta updates will be faster, and thus users don't have to wait a week later to install future beta versions. Hoping apple will fix those bugs in the second beta whenever it becomes available.

I am updated to the latest version of iOS 16, but the beta update menu isn’t showing, I think it’s because I accidentally turned it off. Now it won’t show up again. I tried resetting my phone and re-launching settings about four times. I don’t know how to fix it.
