    It’s clearly iOS 17 and it’s compatibility with old apps that ran fine on 16. People have been reporting heat issues with Instagram since 17 beta 1.

    If it was the A17 or the Titanium frame, it wouldn’t be impacting the base 15, which is the old A16 and aluminum enclosure. Also people wouldn’t be able to reproduce on older phones and iPads with iOS 17 / iPad OS 17.

    Every major Windows, Android, iOS release has some apps that shit the bed and are incompatible with a big n.0 release. This is more of the same. Apple needs to step up their QA game, and this should be yet another a reminder of what happens when you jump into a new major OS update on week 1. The risk of broken 3rd party apps is high at that time. Always has been.
