The development of iOS 16 hasn’t been the smoothest. Accordingly, a number of high-profile features will not debut in the initial release of Apple’s upcoming mobile operating system.
Andrew O’Hara for AppleInsider:
One of the most notable delayed features is support for Live Activities. These allow you to view real-time updates directly on your Lock Screen.
Apple’s Freeform app won’t in iOS 16, though the iPhone-maker said this from the start. It will be arriving in a future update across all of Apple’s platforms.
Another feature that we won’t see for a bit is support for Matter. Technically, iOS 15 already supports the beta of Matter and iOS 16 will fully support Matter — when the standard is released itself.
Matter is supposed to be available to end-users this fall and iOS 16 will — theoretically — be ready when it arrives.
MacDailyNews Take: We’re hearing iOS 16 is planned for public release on Wednesday, September 14th.

All i want is for them to give us a quick easy way to save Message audio files. Can it be that challenging. Or did I miss a memo? SMH!!!
All I want is an analog clock on the Lock Screen and a home button added to the side of the phone.
