iOS 17.1.1 Issues on iPhone

My phones volume is ALL MESSED UP. Connected to Bluetooth in my car? can hardly hear, but all volumes are maxed.


connect to my AirPods? Music is fine, but all notifications of any kind are SO GD LOUD I can’t wear them.


volume is low, but 50% of the day my keyboard clicks were so loud I had to silence my phone. I didn’t even know that the clicks could be that loud! It was insane!


all my ringtones and alert sounds are changed/different - not a fan.


anyone else experiencing any of these issues?

I had NO issues with my iphone sounds prior to the iOS 17.1.1 update. The upgrade DID "alter the fundamental functionality of the device...there were [NO] underlying issues before this update."

Unfortunately, your response does not address the fact that my alert and notification tones are silent. The haptics work.


I figured it out. I was auto connected to a bluetooth speaker that was not being used. I turned the option on that speaker to "Not Connected." That solved the problem.

However, I had been connected to that speaker when it was not in use prior to this last upgrade and I had not experienced this issue.

Yes I’m having issues with the volume as well and have done all of the tricks that I have read online along with ensuring everything was turned up where I wanted them. Also I have some saved videos in my notes I need to be able to see full screen which I no longer can! I am HATING this upgrade as it has affected the 2 most used items for me!

I regret updating my phone… I typically wait until Apple works out the bugs but there is a major problem with this upgrade. No longer able to do a search in iMessage. the volume is lower, private browsing mode works when it wants to. My apps are working very slow.. if at all. I can no longer do a basic search for an app. Terrible Update!! Apple I cannot afford to buy a brand new phone right now. Please fix the bugs with this latest update!!!

The latest upgrade is horrible! When I make or receive calls, just an ugly blurred screen. Used to have the photo for the contact show up, now the photo is only a small circle in left corner. Can’t seem to figure out how to change it back. Also, pictures people sent me in text messages prior to the upgrade won’t download. So annoying.

The update to IOS 17.1.1 has been a disaster for my 14Pro Max. I've wasted so much time trying to get my settings back to what I had before the update...it's as if my phone was reset to some group of settings - completely ignoring what was already in the phone. Battery drain, ridiculous swings in volume settings depending on the app, saved maps...lost, and my absolute favorite...Live Voicemail. This is now apparently toggled "on" by default, and now I have a "Carrier Voicemail" I cannot delete, and my saved greeting is gone. The amount of time I've wasted trying to fix a phone that worked perfectly PRIOR to this update is just STUPID. PLEASE, Apple, issue a fix. We will NOT be updating any other apple products to this disaster version.

DONT Do It!!

totally screwed up existing apps, wayze doesn’t work properly, spell check everywhere doesn’t work properly, underlined nearly every word in this post. Tried to open an app from an email for Black Friday & nothing.

unable to open Walgreens app at all. Voice recording for text not working properly. These are just the ones I tried.

Apple has a lot of work to do.

My phone automatically updated the other night and once the update finished my phone locked up and froze. Once I was able to get it to unfreeze and start responding I found that my tap pay/wallet no longer work. Supposedly, after calling apple support, the tap sensor has failed. What's crazy is it worked 3 hours before updating the phone. Also, since doing the update all of my calendar events are gone, my volume seems weird when connected to the Bluetooth in my car.


I'm just glad that this update hasn't caused my phone to start overheating like the previous one had.
