iphone 7 issues after ios 13 update

This problem is being talked about all over the internet. It's the IOS update that killed the phone. It was caused by the software, but the damage occurs to the hardware. The common story is that Apple will not help you if your phone is out of the warranty period, even though, it was the IOS update that caused the problem. Seems like a great way to make those frugal users who try to take good care of their phone, have to buy a new phone.

I suppose that Apple has fine print protecting them from having to fix all these (now) useless phones. I am VERY unhappy with Apple about this.

Have you tried setting it to factory settings and then setting up as a new device? That will tell you if the problems are in the software or if they're hardware related.

The worst update ever . My iphone 7 plus was working fine perfect till i update to 13 the sound during call disappear , no speaker i have to use AirPods because even the normal headphones will no work .With all of this no wifi .

apple what are you doing to us ...

This happened to me as well. Same bullshit answer from Apple that you got that the phone has been dropped even though there’s not a mark on it but they’ll happily try to sell you a new iPhone 11. Apple do the right thing by your customers and sort out your ****

surly if you do this it’s going to re-install the updated software that has caused this problem in the first place

If the install was corrupted in some way then the issue could be resolved with a factory reset.

AppleCare is only good for two incidents and there’s a deductible as well. Yeah you can do that but you’re paying a lot for the AppleCare and the two incidents of replacements.
