also regretting the update to 17.0.3 (even though it's been approved by IT department)

-screen turns black for no reason

-unresponsive and huge lag

-battery drain is the worst - a 5min phone call and my phone screen turns black. only to reappear with a message that battery is below 10% to go to battery save mode

-battery surprise: jump from red battery status back to yellow

-trying to roll back from my iPhone back-up, but it doesn't roll-back the iOS version :(

"The only way to reinstall an older version of iOS is to wipe the current one from your device. This also means that if you restore from a backup made after the update you will be putting the newer version of iOS back on to the device.Sep 20, 2023"

Try the new update 17.1. I’ve had no problems but I have an i ph 12! Try this help from - support.apple.com/contact.

APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS POOR UPDATE PROGRAMMING & TESTING!

They have. The current version of iOS is 17.1. Perhaps you should upgrade.

Abrar_abu,even when I had iOS 16 there have been small glitches. I have 17.0.3 now and it still happens here and there. Whenever things start acting funny I do this: fast press volume up-fast press volume down- press and HOLD in power button don’t let go till Apple logo comes on screen release it and wait for ph prompt swipe up and punch in passcode. This is an Apple suggested hack to reboot I ph. I think the phones are over engineered by the geeks at Apple even if you are brilliant it’s to many digital artifacts floating round out there never goes away and they keep coming up with bug fixes to fix last fix. Good luck to us all but this little hack does work and I use it ALL the time. Whats next Apple?^>>%<>%= spoofs.

This worked for me. I’m on 17.0.3, I have the 15 Pro, and I couldn’t even check storage use on the settings without it crashing. Safari was constantly crashing as well. Restarted my iPhone a few times, and ironically, as soon as I turned WiFi off, I’m able to check settings>iPhone storage, and typing this From a non crashing safari!

Have you called Apple support 800-692-7753 they have helped me many times.

Hi! I've been experiencing the same issues on my iPhone 11, especially the unresponsive lockscreen and the phone randomly freezing! This started to happen right after my phone atumatically updated overnight and since then every morning when I use it, it crashes. Today it crashed twice. I'm so annoyed by this situation but glad to see that I'm not alone in this! Hope they'll come up with a fix ASAP because I can't trust my phone now!

Yes I updated to iOS 17.0.3 last night just before going to bed and since I woke up in the morning ... its heating, unresponsive or delayed response and keeps on restarting .... already happened 6 times in the last 2 hours.

BTW I am using iPhone Pro Max.

Please help.

I don't usually post on forums and such, but for the first in the years I've had an Iphone I'm having issues with slowness, especially with messages. Also with screen sharing on Facetime. It is very slow and freezes. It's even worse when I try to post a gif or record a voice message. I've tried everything, but it lags ALOT. Too much. Please fix! I have an Iphone 12.

This is nothing new for me. Exactly 1 year ago my IPad Air 4 after that January update started shutting down constantly for no apparent reason. I contacted Apple support and they started to put the blame to possible some program installed is the problem. That issue lasted for around 2 months then suddenly started working normally.

Once I updated to IOS 17 the same issue with shutting down started again.I installed 17.2 hopping for a fix but didn’t happen. Now with IOS 17.3 I have the same shutdowns like before. Battery sometimes gets so hot that I have to shut it down myself. I had since I installed iOS 17 over 1 thousand shutdowns. Is pretty much unusable for anything.

Probably this is a way for Apple to trash my battery/Ipad and go and buy a new IPad. Once the issue if fixed if it ever will I will never install another update. Just the security update will be on.I am very disappointed in Apple. My iPhone didn’t give any shutdowns only battery drain like every one has.

I also have been having problems with the upgrade since I did it this morning. My financial institution uses my phone to confirm my identity before I can log onto their website on my Mac. But after my face is recognized by the phone and I get the green check mark, the website of Mac locks. I did a restart on both the Mac and iphone and it did it again. I called the bank and they say they don't know why but that my phone has always worked to open their website in the past. We will not update my wife's iphone so we can use it to open the financial accounts.

I had no problems with the 17.0.3 now I have the 17.1 no problems on I ph 12. You could go to- support.apple.com/contact. Good luck.
