New but annoying additions in "iOS 16" .. This is how they stopped running

This week, Apple released the latest version of the iOS 16 operating system, which, according to followers, came with many "annoying features".

The new operating system, iOS 16, works on iPhone 8 and later devices, while it will not provide support for older versions.

And the American “Cnet” website said that the system came with many features, such as the return of the percentage of the battery and the ability to edit and cancel text messages.

He added, according to "Sky News Arabia", that "there are many annoying additions that you will not be excited about, such as a new search button on the home screen that is easy to click by mistake, or pop-ups for unexpected images that may be very personal."

1 Prevent images from appearing unexpectedly 

Apple's artificial intelligence helps unexpectedly highlight photos and videos on your phone screen, as a "way to remind you of them," but you may not always want your photos to appear suddenly, especially if you are next to someone.


But with iOS 16, you can now disable this feature in Settings, then Photos, and turn off Featured Content.

2 Prevent the side button from accidentally ending your phone calls

The Power Button (side) allows you to quickly turn the phone off and on, but if you accidentally press it during a phone call, it will expire prematurely.


To prevent this annoying feature: Settings, Accessibility, Touch, and turn off Lock to End Call.

3 Remove the search button from your home screen

The search feature on your iPhone lets you quickly find what you're looking for.


The new operating system has added a search button to the home screen, which is easy to click by mistake.

To disable this button: 'Settings', 'Home screen', then 'Display on Home screen' feature.

4 Return to your old “lock screen” notifications

In the new system, notifications appear at the bottom of the "lock screen", instead of at the top.


In case you want to return to the previous form of “lock screen” notifications: “Settings”, then “Notifications”, then “Display”, and then you will see three options: 1- Number: Notifications appear in the form of numbers at the bottom of the screen.

2- Bundle: Notifications appear at the bottom of the screen as a bundle.

3- Menu: Notifications appear all over your screen.


To go back to the old notification mode, choose the third option, 'Menu'.
