This morning starts day 9 with my 15 PM. It works as designed with no issues. I’m on the stable release is iOS 17.1, from what I’ve noticed many of the 15 PM complaints have come from people running beta software.

also, have you heard of iCloud backup?

So, I feel the same way about my 15 PM. I returned the Apple clear case because it was more slippery than just the naked phone, I feel like I’m less likely to drop it without that case on. What I did was buy a cheap case and I have the dBrand Ghost case on order. What I would recommend is use a case in a strategic way, meaning think about what your day will look like and then decide whether to use a case for that day, half day, or hour. In my current job my phone is usually either in my pocket, on a table or desk, or plugged into my car. I don’t really need added protection for my normal activities. But if I’m going to a rock concert, or a sports event, or hiking, something where my phone will be out and in the air a lot taking pictures, then I’ll case up as there’s a greater chance of a drop.
