Version 16.1 issues

After updating version 16.1 many times a day, the phone freezes and does not respond to any actions and you have to force a reboot or the phone reboots itself.

Hey jelena234,


We'd be happy to help out. If your iPhone 11 Pro Max is frozen and not responding at any point, a force restart is the best thing to do. For more info, please review these steps:


On your iPhone 8 or later, including iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation)
1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
3. Press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.

4. If your phone doesn't turn on, follow these steps to check your hardware and charge your phone. You might need to charge for up to an hour.
5. If your phone still doesn't turn on or continues to freeze unexpectedly, contact Apple Support.

All this is outlined in more detail here: If your iPhone won't turn on or is frozen


If the behavior persists, as it states above, you'll want to contact Apple for support.


Take care!
