Data won't work on social media apps. Won't work on youtube, instagram, tik tok. It will work on safari and iMessage. I've tried every easy fix and nothing worked. Could this be an iphone 11 glitch?

iPhone 11, iOS 15

I’m having this same issue. I thought it was a Verizon issue, but received a new phone and it still isn’t working. Verizon is stumped and directed me here and said it’s an Apple issue. I’ve done all the resets, all data is on, some apps have connection and others say no connection. Any suggestions?

Honestly I’m not sure we aren’t in charge of the account. So sorry. But after some research on my account since I have T-Mobile. there is a family controls option under profile settings and it’s called web guard they have low, medium and high level. High level seems to be what blocks everything. But there is a note that says “Web Guard

Prevent access to adult web content.

Important note: Web Guard does not filter content

when browsing over Wi-Fi or when accessing content

via any application. Content filtering may not be

compatible with certain products or services, such as

Virtual Private Networks (VPNs); Apple Private Relay

must be toggled off for T-Mobile content filtering to.”


so if used under Wi-Fi this can bypass this block. I’m not sure what provider you have but if you don’t have T-Mobile, look for something similar. It may have been done by accident. So I would check the account setting online or on your provider app first before you call. I really hope this helps.
