ios14 update - slows my phone

I have an iPhone XR that is fairly new, and I just updated my software to ios14. I wasn’t having nearly as much problems in ios13 as I am in this new update. My text messages are selectively sending. My apps (like snapchat) are not loading completely, or will glitch out and freeze the screen. But my worst issue is that apple music is no longer showing the lyrics. I just bought this phone, and will not be buying another iphone if these issues continue. I have restarted my phone, network, and apps NUMEROUS times. With covid, I’m uncomfortable taking this to a store, I would like a solution otherwise, if possible. Thank you!

That is not text message, that is group MMS which is a carrier feature and has nothing to do with Apple, ios or Apple device.


As far as social media app, you can contact the app developer or look at their support site.


For Apple Music you can contact Apple support.

I, too, am having several issues with my iPhone ProMax after updating to iOS 14. The phone will randomly freeze up, the sound quality has dramatically and noticeably decreased. If I tilt the phone to maximize the screen for videos, the sound only plays from the ear speaker. If I set it upright, you can hear the sound switch to the speakers near the power port. Its frustrating but I have no doubt Apple is on it: please fix the issues.

Please go back and read the term of service you signed up for. This is a user to user technical forum, there is no Apple here.
