As usual, the betas are first available for developers and soon become available as the same builds for public beta testers.
iOS 16.1 beta includes a few minor changes and additions, like bringing the status bar battery percentage indicator to more iPhone models, and support for a feature called Live Activities which allows you to see real-time data on things like sports scores from the iPhone lock screen. It also is likely to include a fix for the “Allow Paste” popup bug, though a separate bug fix release will be available sooner for that.

Many iOS 16 users on iPhone have noticed a goofy “Allow Paste” but on their devices that comes up when you attempt to use copy and paste between two different apps, say Messages and Notes, or from Safari to Notes, or Messages to Instagram, etc. Any built-in apps or third party apps seem to be subject to the issue.
The bug is not subtle, and if you experience it you’ll see frequent messages like ‘”Messages” would like to paste from “Safari”‘, “Do you want to allow this?” with two options for “Don’t Allow Paste”, or “Allow Paste”, neither of which serves to dismiss the popups from coming up again in the future.

Some users really like the haptic feedback feature on the iPhone, and it may help improve typing or at least the sensation of typing for these users. So, want to try it out yourself? It’s easy to toggle on and give it a go.
