Apple confirms it is working on a patch for this update
Users complain that they spoke to one of Apple’s engineers and the official stated that the company is already working on a patch to fix the issue. However, there are no details as of yet on the patch. Not everyone knows whether the update will come as an independent patch or as an iOS system update. Currently, Apple developers are testing the iOS 16.3 update with developers and public beta testers. However, the iOS 16.3 update will not be available until early next year. It can be that Apple will release a patch to fix that or users might have to endure this until the iOS 16.3 finally comes out. Source: Reddit / Apple Discuss Community Forum
