iPhone 14 Pro Max app switcher stutter / lag (Widespread!)

Hi,

Please help me I have bought this new 14 pro max

and its ios 17 and I am having the same issue.

The phone is stuttering a lot in between

How did this resolve.

Please share your input

There may be several reasons why an iPhone may behave as described by you. Some of them could be...

1. Storage space on your device could be an issue --> How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
2. Water / Liquid entry into the iPhone---> Important safety information for iPhone - Apple Support
3. Overheating due to exposure to temperatures beyond -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). especially in the car because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range -- Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable ...
4. Service of an iPhone by an un-authorised service personnel/agency/store
5. Modification / Alteration of an iPhone by a third-party vendor
6. iPhone is Jailbroken. 

Yeah, it’s so frustrating. Everything you’ve mentioned is happening to me. The lock screen lag is especially annoying. Just cheapens the entire experience.

I’m happy someone else is acknowledging it and it’s not just my device, I’ve seen nothing from any YouTube reviewers.

I’m going to be really disappointed if the lag starts up again tomorrow because we’ll just be hoping for a fix in December with 16.2.

on home scren when i swipe slowly bettwen pages it becomes lower than 120hz ,,, i fixed it by turnning off ( SEARCH - Show on Home Screen ) by going to Home Screen & App Library in settings , its better now but apps witcher problem still exsist but its not bad as home screen

I’m not sure where all my other responses went but I am cautiously optimistic about 16.1.1, key word is cautiously. I’m aware restarting temporarily fixes the issue (also aware an update restarts the phone). I’m just saying 16.1.1 feels a bit snappier than previous releases and betas. We’ll see what tomorrow brings.

The 16.2 betas may not incorporate this bug fix yet if it is actually fixed.

I am with you 1000 percent. I’m also experiencing everything you’ve mentioned. Apple definitely needs to fix this issue. I hate I upgraded from my 13Pro Max. These phones are too expensive to have these issues.

I have the exact same issue. Went to Apple Store Dubai mall, they had no idea. Did all what you did. Back, restore etc… no change

Apple needs to find a fix for this. If hardware related then I don’t mind being replaced with a 13 pro max. As I have the 14 pro max.

very frustrating.

Hello everyone, quick update. A couple of days ago I updated to 16.1.2. That has helped tremendously. With the previous update I experienced stutter/lag etc. I’ve not experienced any problems since updating to the latest software. Hopefully, this is helpful advice. Finally my phone is operating the way a brand new device should. I’m still keeping an eye out to make sure those problems doesn’t present again🤞🏾

As you all comment it is a very annoying and frustrating problem. iPhone 14 Pro updated to version 16.1.2, after few days the problem persists, it is especially annoying when the lock screen is not responding.

I’m so glad I came across this because this same bug has been driving me insane. Everything you wrote is exactly what I’m experiencing. I too had my phone restored to factory settings and started from new twice and nothing happened. I finally demanded a new phone with the hopes that it was a hardware issue and the bug is still there. Apple, please look into this!

You can do the following steps and 100 % percent will solve this issue:

1- Close all apps

2- Update the iPhone to latest update currently 16.1.2

3- Hard reset your iPhone (Press and quickly release the volume up button. Press and quickly release the volume down button. Press and hold the side button. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button).
