iPhone SE not ringing after new update

Hello everyone, after the new update my iphone se isn't ringing and is sending people straight to voicemail without notifiying me that they even tried to call (no banners, not appearing in recent calls whatsoever, just a voicemail notification 5 minutes or more after they leave it) ive check focus settings, do not disturb, the settings regarding unknown callers, and have had my ringer on as well just in case that affects it somehow, and none of these methods fix the issue. not everyone has this issue calling me but it has affected people in my contacts and new callers indescriminantly. any thoughts or methods would be much appreciated

iPhone SE, iOS 17

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.


Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!



iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.


Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
