iOS 17.0.1 causing iPhone issues

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.

My apple, has lost its mind, literally after the 17-01 like wth,, I use 1% of the apps , and intelligence, I am diligent about I cloud stuff, upgrades I have like,nth degree usage if space on the phone,, old saying the fancier the plumbing, more crap backs up,, crazy, I have refreshed, rebooted, really thinking of going back to Microsoft based phones, I never , ever had issues like I have with apple,,

Same!! My text message screen keeps freezing. Videos freezing and restarting. Just all type of weird screen stuff. At first my phone wouldn’t connect to cell service then I restarted it. Which seemed to fix it. Now I have glitches. Meanwhile I have the 14 Pro Max so this shouldn’t happen. Reply if you get any better luck with your issue.

I have an IPhone 14 and I have 17.0.2 downloaded and I’ve lost all purchased ring tones, my “labels” in gmail have lost all content/emails, so much as happened to my iphone, ipad and MAC, that I can’t list them all. I’ve rebooted all my devises, deleted gmail and downloaded and nothing…..I called Apple and they said it was a google problem and to contact google.

"iPhone update to IOS 17.0.1 has caused y phone to freeze up: 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: [...]Can i roll back the update? If so, how, and where do i find directions to do this.?"

Restoring from an Older iOS Backup:

No. This is not adoption. You cannot downgrade to an earlier iOS that was is installed. That's just the way Apple has designed this. So, try another update, this time using a computer....

Update Using a Computer:

Have a Computer Handy? If so, try using a computer to update. Go here: Update your iPhone Using a Computer - User Tip. If any updates are availabe, they will install, sure enough.

So I barely use any of the phones apps or intelligence, on purpose, as I do not care for tech and yes I grew up around it, heavily, the newest upgrade, has messed up my voice message. I now have to put in a pass code start a new voicemail,,and yes I have re booted, refreshed all of everything , all in cloud updating yadda yadda. So I called my number and it goes to my voicemail,.,. so Apple, your 17.01 upgrade is a pain in the rear . Now I have to worry, will my calls go to my voicemail, that I have had the entire lives of all my Apple phones. I was for years Microsoft based phones and considering going back, as a vet, disabled I rely in my phone ! Apple, pull your heads outta ...... and get it right,, poor upgrades ladies,, old saying the fancier the plumbing, the easier for things to plug it up, might want to consider that,,,

"iPhone update to IOS 17.0.1 has caused y phone to freeze up: Thank you, this worked… i got the full use of my phone with the exception of the power off button actually powering my phone off, but it is all as it should be otherwise. Thank you again, as i never thought about using the computer to fix the update."

“I’m having a similar issue. Can’t see half the apps, no fixed apps on the bottom. Everything was fine last night, just a few hours after updating, however this morning it went through a password request loop of every email address I have. Managed to shut down to restart. Now just missing app icons on half my apps.”

Troubleshooting Lost Apps:

A. Drag it Back:

Swipe your finger in from the right. Then, drag it back over.

No Success?...

B. Reset the Home Screen Layout:

If a widget or app has gone mossing somehow, then you need to reset the Home Screen Layout. Go Here: Move and Organize Apps on iPhone - Apple Support. You'd have to add back all the widgets that you can recall being back on there. So, take a screenshotf each Home Screen to know what to place and where: Take a Screenshot On your iPhone - Apple Support

Scroll to: Reset the Home Screen and Apps to their Original Layout

1. Go to: Settings
2. Tap: General
3. Tap: Reset
4. Tap: Reset Home Screen Layout
5. Then... Add the apps back

No Success?...

Redownload load it:

I am very mad about the iOS 17 update because it deleted all of my apps. This is not ok. I want my apps back right now. I have been logged out of all of my apps and I am not very happy about it.

That is by no means a usual occurrence. I suspect that something else is going on besides the update.

You can re-download your apps.

The iPhone update 17.1 is the worst and a slap in the face to customers and shareholders. I’ll be cancelling my Apple TV as a result of your arrogance and buggering.

looking forward to this getting fixed or moving past IPhones to other providers.

I expect better from Apple
