iPhone 12 is so slow

I have to say my phone is fine now. We had to wipe it clean & download from the cloud. I think I might have done something wrong when I tried transferring my data myself. I really love my 12 now!

My only complaint was that when on WiFi it would be very slow but I read online turn my WiFi assist off in setting and to reset the network and I did and now I do t any more probs phone works great but now my only issue is the voice to text which I use a lot bc I don’t like typing but compared to android it’s not very good it screws up what I say a lot

hello, lately I’ve been have many issues with my new iPhone 12 Pro! My business is all on my phone. I’ve had dial- up Thats much faster then having this phone. I thought it was my wifi but it’s the iPhone 12 Pro! PLEASE fix this issue or i’m switching back to anything else but Apple!

My new iPhone 12 promax is really slow on the Internet I’ve tried turning off the wireless And going on 4G this doesn’t seem to solve the problem Eva. I’ve done a speed test at home on my Wi-Fi and all is good can you help can anyone help help

Has anyone figured this out? I got my iPhone 12 Pro on the 5th, it didn't work really, slow to start up, download my apps etc... i was like that is weird. and then i went to bed and the next day i tried to connect to Wifi and it did but everything was extremely slow, or didnt work at all. My apps didn't load. IG Xed out. So, i decided to try my new simcard but 5G was missing... in settings. Anyway, it then connected but again it was so slow, extremely slow or didn't work at all. Anyway, i sent it back for a new one.

Same here ! I’m so disappointed. My son and daughter-in-law bought me the iPhone 12 Pro. My last phones were all the latest galaxies and after selling my galaxy s20 ultra I got a google pixel 3a to try and so far that $300 google pixel blows this thousand dollar iPhone away . I obviously would never tell my children that. My whole family has iPhones and I thought iMessage would be magical but ...not! It’s just so disappointing for my first iPhone . The google pixel 3a is faster with a much brighter screen i, super light weight and it takes way better pictures !!!!!! I hope apple fixes this issue . Right now this iPhone 12 is dull. I’m gonna tough it out for 2 years but after that I’m going back to google if it’s not resolved !

Oh god. Please someone tell me how to stop getting these emails. The whole thing is solved but it never ends. My wife loves her phone, it’s super fast, you are all going to need to take some personal responsibility and read the thread.

same slow issue on refreshing page on almost all apps and sites during browsing. I change connection from 2.4 Ghz to 5Ghz network that seems to be helpful. Disabling private address didn’t help me on 2.4Ghz on wifi.

Hello there,

I have an iPhone 12 Pro since I got the same problem. I contacted Apple support.

I reset the network settings. I reset the modem settings. I installed it as a new iPhone. It didn't work.

I turned off "private address" in wifi settings. I have 100mbits internet. I get 10mbits hard. Average 0.50mbits.

Disgrace. I have to use cellular at home.

I think it's a hardware problem. iPhone XS, iPhone 6, iPad Air 3, iPad Air 2 and iMac are all connected to the same network.

I’m having the same issue with my 12. It’s Unbelievably slow. I can’t tell you how many times I’d like to throw it across the room just waiting for a photo to load on Instagram. Streaming is constantly being interrupted. I’ve been on the phone with AppleCare+3 times and they can’t offer any suggestions. I would pay $1000 to have my XS back.

May have found a solution - for now and for my 12 at least. I did a Google search and found some hacks. Most have been mentioned here. In addition - they suggested toggling Low Data mode (Settings - Wifi - Your wifi network "I" in a circle - tap that, scroll down, toggle Low Data mode. I turned mine On and my phone is much faster! I've been ready to launch it into space ever since I got it. Hope it works for you folks, too!

So, what do you think it is? AppleCare has been working on it for over a month. They reset it, changed settings, reset the network, nothing works. When I run a speed test I’m getting anywhere from 50 - 112 MBs at the same exact time in the same exact location as I’m trying to stream something and can’t. Apple has thrown up their hands.

iPhone 12 Pro Max running super slow. Refreshing is taking for ever. I type a word and the letters slowly appear. Gaming is only losing just to slow. When I stick it in de freezer for 5min it’s runs fine for a bit then back to slowmotion mode. Wil there soon be a update that fixes this. Haha you buy th “fastest@ phone evt but now it doesn’t even compete against the 10X. Apple come on fix this.

I've had my 12 Pro Max since release day and have never seen that happen. Not once.

So the question is what's causing it, and it's usually an app that's incompatible with iOS 14 using a lot of CPU, or a background task that's "stuck."

Do you see anything out of the ordinary in your battery usage statistics?

I’ve tried all the advice that has been given on this post and nothing helps how slow my iPhone 12 Pro is . Maybe I’m just so used to the Samsung Galaxy S20 ultra and the google pixel 3a??? ( my last 2 phones ) Maybe it’s an iPhone thing since I’m new to iPhone as this phone was a gift from my Son and Daughter-in-law . I’m going to stick it out for 2 years and see if apple gives an update which I sure hope they do because this 12 pro reminds me of dial up !

Thanks to everyone for all the advice .
