iOS 16: You’ll Lose These iPhone Features

Are you looking forward to iOS 16? We also! There is a big but: you not only get functions, a number of things also disappear. In this article we show you four functions that you will soon lose in iOS 16. Attention! At this point, iOS 16 is still in beta, so Apple may still tweak these features.

In the screenshots below, you can see iOS 15 on the left and iOS 16 on the right.

1. Live Wallpapers are gone in iOS 16 on iPhone

In iOS 15, Apple gives you several Live Wallpapers that you can set. These wallpapers move when you hold down the finger on the screen. Sadly, these Apple wallpapers are gone in iOS 16.

Live wallpapers can no longer be used in iOS 16. By holding down your finger on the lock screen in iOS 16, you can now open the lock screen settings.

2. You hardly see the open lock anymore

When you unlock the iPhone, you will see an open lock on the lock screen. In iOS 16, this open lock has disappeared and you will lose this function. You only get to see the (now even smaller) lock if you lock the iPhone and immediately unlock it.

3. Battery percentage is (partially) gone

When you start charging your iPhone in iOS 15, you will immediately see the battery percentage. If you tap the screen while charging, the battery percentage will appear. If you do this in iOS 16, you will no longer see a percentage. This can be solved by manually adding the battery widget to the lockscreen in iOS 16.

4. Adjustments to Apple Music

When you play music in Apple Music, you’ll see a small dot that lets you adjust the volume or scroll through the song. In iOS 16 these dots are gone. This will make it more difficult to adjust the volume or skip through a song.

Lost features in iOS 16: not so bad

As you can see, it’s just minor features that are gone in iOS 16. The feature we miss the most at the moment are the live wallpapers. Of course, you get a lot of extra features in iOS 16 in return. Perhaps Apple will change this, as iOS 16 is currently still in beta.
