Jonathan ~ If the app's icon was this:

...it's Apple's own app:

Fitness on the App Store

I have just installed this update on my iPhone 13 mini. It has had two immediately obvious strange effects. First, the time display on the Lock Screen is now an ugly bold font, not the usual stylish Apple aesthetics. Second, a new Fitness app that I have not deliberately installed has suddenly appeared on my Home Screen. On opening the latter, a dialogue asks for personal details, which it says are not shared with Apple. Why would an Apple upgrade install an app that is not associated with Apple? I backed out and deleted the unwanted Fitness app, but these two odd changes following upgrade leave me quite concerned. I wonder what else I will discover?

I have same issues. After the update 16.1.1. My iPhone XR suddenly shutdown again and again.

I turned off my phone and restarted. Also, I reset the settings too. But it doesn’t work. Help, please

How to be back normal my phone?

anujin ~ Shutdowns & restarts can be caused by a weak, aging battery...

Does your iPhone XR still have its original battery?

And what's the Maximum Capacity % here?...

We don't know the 'why' of what Apple does, but there's this form:

You can safely update. This update is recommended for all users

I’m having problems opening links in emails plus all sorts of other problems - not sure what to do about it

Thanks, but why was it necessary? They could have made that customisation possible without changing the existing lockscreen.

Again, I didn’t want it. Why did they need to dump it on my phone?

Ah, thank you!

Since I updated my XR to iOS 16.1.1 I can’t get retrieved my messages from messenger. The phone indicates I have a message but when I try to see it - there is nothing there.

This update is terrible. Don’t do it

Agree. It’s driving me crazy. Cannot stand the new UI
