New update 14.5.1 has caused a malfunction in making and receiving phone calls. Does anyone have problems with this also. Totally disappointed in apple. Every time they make a new phone they have to make updates and subsequently creates havoc.

I have iPhone 4S iOS 9.3.6, iPhone 6 iOS 12.5.3, iPhone SE iOS 14.5.1, iPhone 8 iOS 14.5.1 and an iPad Pro iPadOS 14.5.1 and iPhone 12 Pro iOS 14.5.1. Prior to that, I had iPhone 3GS, which I have stopped using because it is carrier-locked.


I have been updating all these devices whenever a new iOS are released. I have never encountered any issue whatsoever after any update.

I have multiple iPhones.
None of them are having any issues.
I also have owned iPhones since the 3g model.
I have also not experienced any issues, I install updates as soon as they become available.

Me as well. We've owned so many iPhone's from 3G to the current iPhone 12 series, with many in-between. Not ONCE has any update caused an issue on any of our phones.
