I heard this update caused problems with Safari and other apps. Is this true?

After ANY iOS/iPadOS upgrade/update, you should ALWAYS perform a simple hard reset/forced restart of your Apple mobile device.


For iPad models with a Home button, do a simple hard reset/forced restart of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake/power button simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons.


OR


For much newer design iPad models, without a Home button, try the new simple hard reset/forced restart procedure for the new 2018-2022 iPad Pros, 2020/21 iPad Air 4 and 5, the 2021 iPad Mini 6 and the new 2022, 10th gen base models,


1. Press and release the volume button closest to the top Power button


2. Then immediately ( and quickly ) press and release the volume button farthest from the top Power button.


3. Then, press and hold the top single sleep/wake/power button You will see the Slide to Power off button, but keep on holding down the power button until you see the Apple logo, then let it go.


Once you have performed all the steps, wait for a few seconds and your 2018-2022 iPad will boot up completely to the iPad’s Lock screen.

16.5.1(c) caused cellular internet to stop connecting. WiFi worked fine. Tried the hard reset (multiple times), also tried putting the phone in Airplane mode for about 20 seconds, then taking it out to force the connection to re-establish. None of that worked. Ended up uninstalling the Security Response (while on WiFi, of course) and all the issues went away. A fix would be nice because I don't like having vulnerable devices. iPhone 13 Pro Max.
