Issues after updating to iOS 17.4.1

Hi Guys. After updating my iphone to the latest 17.4.1, i am facing several issues in the last 4-5 days,


  1. The contact poster of my contacts is not being displayed whenever i am making the call or receiving a call from them. It just shows a black background.
  2. The pedometer in iphone is not working properly. I go for a walk daily in the morning and the same distance before was shown around 4 Kms, now it is showing 2.5 or 3 Kms, and this issue is also consistent. There is something seriously wrong with the steps being counted.
  3. Battery drain has also increased by around 10-15% more than what it used to be. Even if my phone is sitting idle, it loses battery at a much faster rate than what was before.


I don't know if anyone else is facing these issues, but these issues are consistently there for me and are not resolved by restarting the phone (which i did several times).

I’ve done everything every one else has done. Nothing’s worked. This update went live on my phone overnight and has completely destroyed me cellular. Not even getting a new Esim like others have suggested from my carrier worked. After dealing with my carrier, apples ultimate solution was to have me bring it in to a technician and of course there’s no availability until tomorrow evening. This is customer service nowadays for you folks. Have an issue with their products or how they do things? Too bad. Theres only 2 phone companies to pick from. The consumer is a clown to these people nowadays. This company has been in a tailspin since steve jobs died. Each new iphone is more devoid of originality and ingenuity than the last. Updates forced upon you that break your phone. If anybody discovers a solution, please let us know. Sorry we all have to deal with this.

Software Lags

  • when power on phone; to swipe up and key in passcode; the phone lags
  • When open Phone to launch keypad, it lags
  • When open contacts to search; the search bar goes missing


Calls (biggest issue)

  • when receiving call; or making out going calls; many a times the call can be picked up but the person on the other end isn’t able to hear. I can hear them (made a apple care report)


Battery

  • battery drains faster 


Apps

  • apps take a longer time (a few milliseconds) slower to load

The only thing I’m facing so far with this new update is my data not working. I’m thankful I even got this page up. I never had any issues until this update came along. Usually I’m able to use my phone at one bar of service with 5g, but it’s having trouble with 3 bars with 5g which just ain’t right. Seems like other people are dealing with the same issue as well. If anybody finds out how to potentially fix it that would be awesome thank you.

After update yesterday I have several issues


My heart monitor kept going off. Three alarms had been set that wouldn't switch off. Not the best way to stay calm


My contacts don't show


My video on facetime doesn't work.


I've tried turning off the phone.


I fixed heart monitor by disabling all notifications in settings.


I can live without a camera on facetime but the contacts needs to be fixed
