After iOS 17.1.1 update my iPhone apps are not working correctly

Sooo many things not working! Volume is messed up, have to constantly readjust it, auto adding ALL phone calls to address book, messages are totally not working- can’t send a group message anymore, the message box is gone after adding more than 2 people, the auto correct is wayyyy out of control- have to backspace and it’s constantly adding 2 letters that have not been typed. Like what are you doing to us? Are you making us have to buy a new phone every year? Samsung looking mighty fine rn, and with all these glitches plus more, you’ll be losing many customers, esp those with older phones. I have iPhone 13 and this is awful! It’s not even paid off yet!

I totally agree. I have been suffering through many of the same problems. This is beyond absurd. It smacks of Apple having a lack of effective quality control and a general disregard for its customers. Even in writing this up, I have had a nightmarish experience due to the auto correct feature regressing to something far worse than when it was first released years ago in the marketplace. Moreover, I find that I am unable to forward any photos I want to send to others via any available options such as text, email, etc.

To Apple: This update is a complete embarrassment and failure. You can and must do better. We were already on the precipice of transitioning to a competitor in the future. If this isn’t fixed very soon to our liking, we will definitely move on beyond Apple.

This update is absolutely terrible. My phone stalls now, I don’t get all of my texts or notifications, i am having trouble accessing features during texts. This was the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen from apple. It’s not just me either. My mom, my wife and my daughter all have the same problems. My phone is Now behaving like it has bugs. What’s worse it the phone forced me to update. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

So Red…. Just when is this “stabilization” gonna happen? Because at this rate with as many times as I have to backspace to correct little miss autocorrect, that tracphone sitting in the drawer is looking pretty **** good right now.

I reached someone at apple by phone and she said she wasn’t supposed to admit that the update caused all these problems, but confirmed it had. Said there is no fix and no plan for one. So there ya have it. As soon as I have time, I’m going phone shopping NOT for another useless iPhone!

So, stick to 16.7.2 for now.

can my update go back a revision?

Nov 28, 2023 12:06 PM in response to florin289

So how do you switch back????

Nov 23, 2023 3:15 PM in response to Jilesoph

Newer versions of iOS are bound to have bugs in the early days. For example, iOS 17.1.1 is going to be more buggy than iOS 16.7.2, because iOS 16 has been around longer. As Apple releases more minor releases, it will increase in stability.

I’m not getting notifications/sounds. Every single time they update, everything is a mess, when no settings have changed!

My clock in the locksreen is on the left, like i have an android phone. The volume control is messed up for me, like you guys. Sometimes my iphones (standard 14 and 15 pro max)

get a lagg wave, and the notifications are lagging. Plus sometimes the typing experience is bad, bc it shows letters, I didnt type, so I need to delet it, before sending It.

Hope soon they will fix all of these.

Apple is not acknowledging this monster of a mess. Pretending there are no issues, no complaints. It’s…bazaar…

Thanks @Gd5354. It’s worse. Along with not being able to copy and paste, the whole phone freezes now.

I believe it’s time to boycott Apple
