Whether you find the answer helpful or not, it IS factual. There is NO supported way to go backwards in iOS. There has never been a way to do so. If the update caused an issue with a 3rd party app, you need to address that with the developer of the app. Apple provides the API for all updates to the app developers, long before an iOS update is publicly released. It is up to the app developer to ensure their app can work with the new iOS. Apple doesn't own 3rd party apps, nor do they or can they do anything with the code inside the app.


If you are not happy with these facts, complain to Apple. This is a user to user only forum. We don't design iOS. Nor can we provide what you want.


Feedback to Apple goes here --> Feedback - iPhone - Apple


But complaining to Apple likely won't help with this 3rd party app which you are having an issue with. You need to address that with the app developer. This link explains how to reach an app developer --> How to contact an app developer - Apple Support

Crunchyroll - iOS 15 broke all the best bits, including queue, main

filters, and the ‘new’ episode flag functionality. Only change was upgrade to iOS 15. It was working before, it was not working afterwards. I am absolutely sure of that, because I was watching anime on it immediately before the upgrade, and then tried to watch some immediately after. I have a support call scheduled for it with Apple tomorrow, but I was hoping to rollback the upgrade and wait for a less buggy version (as they likely won’t be able to fix it on the call). Anime simulcast streaming is pretty much all I use the affected device for, so if that’s not working the device is effectively rendered useless to me until it is.

The IOS 15 update is diabolical! I feel like I have lost control of swiping & the Ipad has developed a ‘mind of its own’, NO, I am not going to adjust to it! Horrible update! Please hurry up & get rid of it!

Who do you think you are talking to? Apple? You aren't. This is a user to user only forum. Apple isn't here. Just other users. No one is going to get rid of iOS 15 for you.


I have absolutely no issues whatsoever with iOS 15.1 (the newest version) on 2 iPhones and 2 iPads.

There should be a way to change an update back.

I HATE the IOS 15 update!! As stated in other comments, it drops calls, won’t keep photos, I have to use portrait instead. Some of my apps either won’t open or they disappear.

It’s trash! If you won’t allow me to go back, then do another and better upgrade!!!

I hate to stop using iPhone, but this is worse than a flip phone!

That is the worst answer you could possibly give.

It is, nonetheless, accurate.


Why would the irl be at the bottom of the page? Where has it ever been there?


If you don't like the URL (irl means "in real life) at the bottom of Safari, turn that feature off. Settings>Safari>Tabs and tap on the "Single Tab" icon. I find it easier to access at the bottom and am pleased there is such an option.

Couldn't tell that. My reply was to lobsterghost1 cuz it sounded just like an Apple answer.

You, like most other people, didn’t bother to read the terms use when you first joined the forum. It is stated there quite clearly that this is a user-to-user forum. Please note that this is an observation, not a criticism; I don’t read ToUs either 😈
