My phone is currently on iOS 17.0.2 and I’m scared to update to iOS 17.2.1 since it could significantly worsen the phone’s battery life and performance. Should I update? What do you think?
iPhone 11
Bought 8 months ago
100% battery capacity
Currently running iOS 17.0.2
iPhone 11, iOS 17
Already answered by WheelieNick, but to say again.......
Whenever you install a new update, the phone works overtime for a few days to index all the data on the phone.
Over a billion phones update with no problems, but there is always some issue with every update for a few users. No one posts here to say that their phone is working fine. Everyone here has a problem.
I'm convinced that if there was ever an update that did absolutely nothing except restart the phone, there would be posts from users claiming that the update killed their phone.

I’ve already downloaded it, I’m just about to install it, So, what you mean is my battery life will be a bit choppy for 48 hours, and then it’s gone back to normal?
Sorry, I’m just clarifying, thank you guys so much for confirming for me, have a good rest of your day.
You should update yes. Updates only affect battery life in the first 48 hours after the update, because the iPhone is busy indexing the update
Updating makes sure that your iPhone is protected against the latest security vulnerabilities and I strongly recommend against stopping with updating because of scare for battery issues
This forum is for users who are having a problem. Everyone here has a problem. No one ever posts here to say that things are fine.
I don't know what iOS version you are using now, but you would have never updated your phone to that version if you spent any time here looking at posts about that version.
No don’t, because I had a brother personally yeah, when I updated, my brother took my phone and tried to see what’s in it, it had a password, but the update crashed my phone and made it unlocked, so he went into my business, wouldn’t recommend updating 🤦🏻♂️
Don't. It's not worth it. I lost siri.
No. according to all the posted issues. Hopefully Apple will come out with a new update to fix 17.2.1
I’ve just updated my 11 and it’s working fine but since iOS 16 I no
longer get any new emojis 😔
thats sad.. I already updated a week ago, but my phone is still running okay.
no!!!
Evidently you are not reading all the issues stated in this forum!
Report it.. I don’t think an update can do this.. This is the first time I’ve heard an iOS update or a version can have a bug like that.
iOS 17.2.1 on iPhone 11
