Apple is set to update its mobile operating system to iOS 10 very soon, and it has a lot going for it. The biggest additions will change how people use their iOS devices in the future — transforming the way they write and send texts, interact with notifications, and use Siri within apps. The new version of iOS has been in beta for a while now, but the beta was only recently made available to the public, meaning thousands of people are now experiencing iOS 10 prior to its official release. People are getting to grips with new features, but there are also some iOS 10 problems that Apple needs to deal with.

Fortunately, making the beta available to the public will result in more bugs, glitches, hardware and software issues being discovered, which should give Apple a chance to fix them before the OS’ official release in the fall. That said, it’s always convenient to have one place to find any and all iOS 10 problems, which is where we come in. We’ve scoured as many forums as we could to find the biggest problems people have run into while using the iOS 10 beta, and provided workarounds and solutions for as many of them as we can.
Problem: Battery drain
The iOS 10 beta 7 release, as well as other versions before it, have caused excessive battery drain for some people, even when the iOS device is being used normally. The problem isn’t universal, as many people report that their batteries are performing as expected, but if you’re using iOS 10, you should be prepared to charge your phone more than usual.
