Currently on 15.7
1) Can I jump directly to 16.1.1 or should I install 15.7.1 first?
2) Is 16.1.1 safe for my phone, or buggy and perhaps I should wait? I don't want to create a problem where none exist.

No issues with either phone.

Running 15.7.1 on iPhone 13 Pro Max.

Mainly because Apple removed the day/night wallpaper option that automatically switches in accordance to day and night mode, a feature that I absolutely loved.

You can jump straight to 16.1.1 as 15.7.1 is just a security update. You do not have to download anything in between the newest firmware and the one you have currently installed.

16.1.1 is fine on my 12 Mini. Most of the issues appear to be DI related on the new phones.

"DI related"?
