Bluetooth issues on my iPhone adter iOS 17 update

I have problem with bluetooth with the newest version of ios. My version is 17.1.1 and the it constantly disconnecting on all devices. i searched a lot and i found that there are so many people who have this problem with their iphone in different models.

I've reset my setting, i did so many things which i've found on internet. but it didn't fix yet.

Could you please fix it as soon as possible? it's really annoying

Apple just released iOS 17.1.2. Update your iPhone, then after the update completes, Force Restart your iPhone by following these directions --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support


Keep the Force Restart instructions as I do this after EVERY iOS update and I've never had an issue caused by any update in all the years I've owned an iPhone.

Since the latest update my iWatch connection to Iphone camera app is TERRIBLE.

Continues freezes and black screens.

Closing the apps on both devices and reopening does not even work.

Only hard resetting both devices (sometimes) works.


What an absolute bummer this. And we pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars for these devices.


For years it worked well. Now it is as bad as in 2013, I remember those days.


I use it a lot for amateur movie making. And this makes it completely impossible.


I don't know what Apple has done with the latest updates for iWatch (10.4) and IOS (17.4.1) on iPhone, but it has completely messed up the connection.

Everything was great till I updated my 13 to 17.4.1


So I can connect to my car using BT but no one can hear me. This f'n terrible update has just made driving super dangerous


worst part is I'll have my earpieces in and the BT default connects to the car, so I have to disconnect from the car on the phone while driving and then it auto joins randomly


Apple WTF ARE YOU DOING?!?

When my iPhone updated to iOS 17.5.1 my bluetooth stopped working as well. I depend on an industrial noise cancelling bluetooth headset for communications because I work in a very noisy environment in a big food processing plant. Now no one can get a hold of me or vice versa when working on the plant floor. This really impacts my job. C'mon Apple, fix it. Don't make me regret buying an iPhone.
