Aside from this, the Weather widget has been fixed to show the time and weather correctly, and an issue with the native Messaging app has also been fixed.

The update also features some improvements, including better SD card detection and enhanced compatibility with some SD cards. Also, a new Hotspot icon has been added that appears during VoLTE calling. And finally, users will now also be able to receive notifications while on a VoLTE call and Video call.
