iOS 17.0.1 causing iPhone issues

Yesterday, August 20, 2024, i updated my iPhone pro max to ios 17.0.1, from Apple. At first my phone seemed to work okay, but I’ve noticed today that i can not access my Home Screen, the phone power button doesn’t operate by turning off the phone. I can access all my apps through the icon drawer. I have 3 separate screens, but can only access the last screen. When i swipe right to attempt to go to the Home Screen, my daily feeds screen shows up, swiping left gives me access to my apps drawer. I tried to power down my phone thinking that maybe a restart would fix the issue, but nothing happens when i press the power button. Thinking that maybe the update had just deleted my Home Screen and gave me the one screen as my Home Screen, i attempted to add short cuts to my Home Screen, but when ever i add an app to the Home Screen it doesn’t shore up, this tells me that my Home Screen is not the screen I’m stuck on, or I’m unable to add shortcuts to my Home Screen. Can i roll back the update? If so, how, and where do i find directions to do this.?

Just keeps kicking me off my WiFi constantly for no apparent reason. Freezing all the time. Can't turn it off. So many useless features that most of us will never use.

I installed iOS 17.1 and now my messenger has been removed! I can open messenger from the App Store but I cannot download the app to my desk top. Help

If the button in the App Store says "Open", that means that the app is already installed on your device. Go to the App library (last page to the right). Tap in the search bar at the top of the page to access the alphabetical list of apps. Find the one you want to move to the home page. Press and hold on it. Select "Add to Home Screen".

I’ve discovered a new and annoying iOS 17.1.1 bug…


When I make a phone call, I can no longer end it. I finish talking, my iPhone screen is dark, so I try to tap it to bring up the phone screen, and nothing happens. I try pressing the Power button, or Volume buttons, and nothing happens.


In essence l cannot end the call at all. I have to hold the other person does so. Eventually, after about 8-10 seconds - presumably once the other person has disconnected - my iPhone will let me use it again!


This is so annoying and a MAJOR bug!


The more I read about all the iOS 17 problems e.g. notification issues, sound problems, tone changes that can’t be altered, apps missing on home screens, etc, etc, the worse I feel this update is! It’s a disaster zone!

I upgraded my iPhone 12promax to iOS 17.0.3 and I can’t change the location to another country again can I still change to location or not

First, you should update to the current version of iOS 17, 17.1.1.


Then, explain what happens when you try to change the location. Are you getting any error messages? If so, what do they say?

After latest I watch update I can’t access the swipe screen which has theatre mode, no ring and find phone.

That is correct. The Control Center access has been moved. You now access the exact same screen by tapping the side button. It's the oval button next to the Digital Crown. It's flat, almost flush with the bezel.

Also uses up all my charge which never happened before.

Un-pair and re-pair the watch.

This is insane that we have to go through so much trouble to try to get our phones back to working order after Apple forced us to update to this new terrible system. This is truly the worst update yet. I don't have time, patience or understanding of all these instructions to try to get my phone back to normal. I'm at a loss of what to do. I'm praying they'll release another update asap to fix the garbage update they just gave us.

New update totally blows! I can’t seem to get my curser to work in messages if the message is longer than the screen. Also sending notes has all these unnecessary new features. I really don’t understand why they keep messing with the things that actually work. And honestly makes me wish I had gotten a different phone now. It’s exhausting and I really don’t have the time to research all the work arounds. I turned off my automatic update which I think gets turned on when you do decide to update. I might try to figure out how to go back to the old operating system but again who has the time?

I’ve had nothing but issues with 17.1.2. They need a fix asap. I had purchased the iPhone 14 Pro Max when it came out and was just fine until the update. I was just outside of the warranty and was told It was the hardware and not the software. So I traded in my phone early and got the 15 pro max. $500 later. Well both phones glitch when getting notifications. I’ll get multiple notifications throughout the day ones that I’ve already checked. If someone texts me that isn’t in my texts to begin with, it comes up with just the number even though they’re saved in the contacts. I know this seems minor but it’s frustrating that we pay thousands for phones now and I’ve been loyal to apply for 10+ years. Please for the love of god send out an update to fix this. Please.

My iPhone 14 has gone bonkers after recent upgrade to 17. When I’m typing it just goes crazy, flicking screens, wiping what I’ve written, cutting and pasting…..

I suggest you start your own thread rather than append your issue to a thread that hasn't been active in almost two months. Also, if you just updated to iOS 17, you're not running iOS 17.0.1, so, that makes this tread even less appropriate for your issue.
