Since I updated my iphone 15 pro to IOS17.1, I noticed that when I tap the locked screen or pick up the phone, the screen takes a while to wake up. Turning off the device or restarting it only improves the problem for a few hours. Nothing works, I hope they improve this quickly, it's very annoying

My phone suddenly stopped doing this and i have not force restarted last 3 days cause i think i found the issue. Apple still need to fix it ,but i found strange interaction between whats on your lock screen and this issue. I change new wallpaper pretty often and when i am not using dept effect it fixes it for good. Try to set new wallpaper even if its the same without dept effect from lock screen. I switched dept effect off and i dont have this issue. If i now try to have a wallpaper with dept effect issue reappears.

Yes, I agree. But don’t do normal restart (switch off/switch on). Please do force restart. Follow the below steps

  • press and release volume up
  • press and release volume down
  • long press and hold power button until your display turns on with apple logo

I did this 3 days ago. Works fine till now.

I am facing the same issue, restarting the device fixes this issue for 1-2 hours.. but then this issue reappears.


I switched to iPhone 15 after 12 years on Android, and so far my experience on iPhone has been quite buggy compared to the Android world. Hoping a fix soon

Hi. I spoke with one of Apple support agents and he mentioned:

“our engineers haven't had any reports yet”

And suggest if we want Apple to solve this issue in next updates we should address the issue in Apple feedback👇

so please everybody write your feedbacks please

(iphone 15 pro max - ios 17.1.1 )

YES! I am having the same problem and surprisingly i first noticed it on ios 17.1.1 , sometimes it takes me 4-5 taps for my iPhone to actually register that I am tapping it. However I have noticed it get better and not do it as much some days it doesn’t even do it even if I want it to- thankfully I have videos of it doing it if I ever need to show apple. and I have done all of the basics; and I don’t have tap duration on(apple said that they have seen the problem but with tap duration) I have tried force restarting my device, volume up volume down hold till apple logo, updating apps, turning tap to wake off and back on again(even though it was on in the first place) raise to wake off and back on again, my diagnostics pass the hardware test every time and my system software seems to be pretty stable. I still have yet to put this phone in recovery mode to see if it fixes the issue - how is the issue coming for you?

I went from 14 pro to S23 ultra for a while and now i got back to 15 pro again, this felt really bad , like this phone while so powerful it feels so much worse than android in terms of speed and response time that i hope this is fixable cause lately ios software is kinda joke. Especially the new call screen if poster card is not made for a given contant... and i wont manually do 1400 contacts.. its getting very strange and it makes me wonder who is working for apple on design team lately , but the late screen and touch response is awful compared to competition for sure.
