iPhone 14 Pro slow after iOS 17.1 update

I’ve experienced ridiculous lag and performance issues since updating to 17.1. Have had to restart the phone multiple times because it gets frozen on a certain apple won’t open any apps. Need an update to fix immediately.

iPhone 14 Pro Max, touch response is slow after the iOS 17.1.1 upgrade. Apps don’t open as quickly as they used to. Sometimes I have to touch multiple times to type or to press. This needs to be addressed on priority by Apple.

Im an iPhone 14 user. Ever since iOS 17.0, my iPhone has been slow. The swipes, switching through apps, opening the notification bar etc etc felt very slow, and still do, even after iOS 17.1

Really hope Apple fixes this, its been more than a month since this lag first started

I have an iPhone 14 Pro, original owner to the phone (no replacements). It’s on 17.1 right now, and I checked just now to see that there is a 17.1.1 available. I’m hoping this fixes the lag issues. I’m currently in a medium sized U.S. city with full 5G signal. Speed test is showing 90+ down and 25+ up, more than enough to stream simple videos, but getting repeated buffering. Restarted, cleared cache, all apps/tabs closed etc. Was experiencing Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay connectivity issues with my car earlier while driving. Also noticing that brightness and volume settings do not stay where you put them, even if you turn off automatic options (I dragged down the control panel and pulled my volume down to 0, and it immediately went back up unprompted, several times in a row). Very glitchy.

17.1.1 did not help with the above listed issues. 🙃

Are there any fixes out there?

this is horrible. iPhone 14 Pro, 17 ruined it. Take a pic and send it, nope can do that. Try to edit a photo, nope. Changed a lot of contact photos. 17.2 didn’t help one bit. My phone is slower that my 13 was… smh, please fix this

black screen of death

Happened to me this morning. Never experienced this until the 17.1 update. It even sent an sos emergency message that showed on my Apple Watch. The method you used to solve the issue, worked for me also.

I have a 14 pro max original owner! and since the IOS update 17.1.1 my phone has been lagging and I got the Black Death screen and my phone was charged. I called my self phone rang black screen. A fix for the black screen was I pressed and quickly released volume up button then press n released the volume down button then I pressed and held down the side button on the right until Apple logo appeared! It fixed the black screen and my lag times got better I will try out all day to see if this works and I will confirm

I have had the same issues. Safari is extremely slow. Waiting a minute plus for webpages to load. Prior to update it was quick. This is with 4-5 bats of LTE. No idea what’s going on but it’s frustrating.

I’m experiencing the exact same thing with the iPhone 14 Pro, it’s especially bad in safari, but noticeable across the phone in general. Updated to 17.2 and it didn’t help at all. Thought I was going crazy until I saw this discussion

running 17.3.1 and have been getting the same issues on my 14 pro and the wife's 15 pro since the 17 updates last year.

We have to keep restarting our phones as they wont respond.

Also had to turn off continuous text, as it kept changing words in sentences that grammatically speaking, made no sense at all.

you only discovered that the word you saw get entered had changed, after proof reading the entire message.

seems that Apple have done a good job at compromised their own system ! :(

ive got i phone 14 pro. IOS Version 17.3.

still lags when swiping home screen between apps.

Apple should fix this issue

I am Expiriencing the same problems with 14pro max ! What a disappointment .....

Hi there.

I found myself on this discussion because I’m being encouraged to upgrade to iOS17 on my iPhone 14Pro. I’m currently still running iOS16 which came with my phone.

I used to work for Apple and saw far too many phones updated just a year later and seeing significant lag issues. I would rather stick with iOS16 then have issues with my 1 year old phone.

Im not sure if Apple has released a new version of iOS17 that appears to not cause issues, but if anyone has any successful news upgrading an iPhone14pro to iOS17 without any loss of speed etc, please let me know.
