iOS 13.5.1 screen and calling issues

Oh boy!! This update has been terrible. Screen freezes, or opens random apps. Won't let me type at times. Won't let me send text messages, if it lets me type it. Screen bounces all over the place, shakes and goes from screen to screen. I mean, how long will it take to get fixed, if it gets fixed? I can't afford a new phone because of Apple error!

That’s is exactly like mine IPhone X! I have master reset so many times and makes no difference. Literally thought my phone was getting hacked! Have also noticed my battery life it extremely poor and running low by lunch time

I updated my iPhone XS yesterday (6/20) and since then my touch screen has not been behaving properly. I can’t type 1 and q unless and I keep it on landscape mode. Effectively when the keyboard is on the bottom left corner becomes useless.

FaceTime and phone calls outside of hands free is dead on my 7 plus since the update. I understand that the iPhone is more than a phone but needs to pass the basic function of telephony. Hoping for a Quick turnaround.

I just updated my 7 plus and all front cameras i.e Snapchat, WhatsApp and Instagram are either freezing up or giving me a black screen except for the camera already installed on this phone. Please fix it! This is very frustrating I can’t FaceTime I can’t make WhatsApp video calls.

I restarted but still nothing... it’s frustrating cause I just got this phone and updated it thinking I’d experience faster features and now look, my zoom classes are on hold...I’m in school I need help with this! I’m yet to try to erase all data though, I might lose all my school docs. Ugh

Did Apple really just destroy my phone?! Same issues on my 7 Plus... I can’t continue to give money to Apple to trash my phone in hopes of me upgrading. If this software issue doesn’t get fixed soon I’m out. I’ll upgrade on my own terms. Can’t believe I have a cellphone that I can’t make or receive calls on, kinda defeats the purpose.

I upgraded to iOS 13.5.1 and now my iPhone 11 is really dim. With brightness all the way up its similar to my old iPhone 6s at full brightness. I have a 2018 iPad which now is way brighter than my iPhone 11. I can't figure out what's going on, I did a reset and nothing changes. Any ideas?

Very unhappy with Apple. Did they not test the update before requiring phones to get it? I’ve had problems in the past with Apple updates so I avoided 13.5.1 as long as I could. Then, one night, it automatically updated. Since then I can barely answer or give phone calls, texting is a game of 50/50 chance, my battery lasts maybe half as long as it used to, my phone seems to running extremely hot (7+ by the top right, just below the camera and flash), most applications won’t open without crashing, scrolling only works maybe half the time, wifi and cell service seem non existent, and video and audio playback (even from things downloaded and stored on the device) are entirely unusable. I’ve tried restarting my phone, freeing up storage, and deleting and downloading apps again. Non of these have worked and now that I’ve deleted the apps I use most, my phone won’t download them again. I would backup my phone but it freezes every time I try. Great work, Apple. Top notch as usual.

Hi! I updated my iphone 7 plus from ios 13.3 to 13.5.1 earlier this month and I can only listen to calls through a Bluetooth device. The proximity sensor has stopped working too. Everything was working perfectly until the update. Help me please because it is making me develop hatred for the phone.

I have the I Phone 7 Plus I did the ISO 13.5.1 update and have the same issues, battery drain, phone real hot, having problems making and receiving calls at times, cannot get e mails, some of my apps are not working.

I am off work with a broken foot and need my phone to still do work related stuff.

I tired the reset push top volume button once, push the bottom volume button once then hold upper right site button in till phone started up. Still have the same problem, Wondering if I need to erase the phone then reinstall everything that I have saved, how do I do this, if this is then next first of action? Please help desperate!

I have all Apple products. I have spent thousands on a Appe iMac and iPhone. When I purchased these products they worked so well. Now, after both an update on both my iPhone and iMac, my products are virtually unusable. I would like Apple to reach out to me and help me through their changes. I have tried backing up my devices, but I can’t. I do not know what else to do. If Apple can’t help, I’ll have to try something that does.

I have an iPhone 11 and after I installed 13.5.1 , the screen goes completely black when I make or receive calls.

Not all the time, but frequently.

I think the best advice is to not upgrade until the .3 version.

Adding my voice to the chorus here. My iPhone 6s has become basically unusable. Yes, it's an old model, but it was working just fine before this last upgrade. Apple, you've now successfully trained me to never do an upgrade again.

Why no response from the company here, beyond the one person who keeps telling us to do a complete factory restart? That's an enormous headache, which will cost many people hours if not days. (Side note: please, for the love of god, make it possible to transfer voice memos off of our phones in bulk rather than one by one!) Is that truly our only course of action?

This upgrade is clearly causing big problems. Solutions, Apple?

if you read the term of service you signed up for then you would've known that this is a user to user technical forum and that there is no Apple here.

If you want Apple, then suggest you go to your nearest Apple store and can do your rant there.
