IOS 17.5.1 Problems

Phone was dandy until I did iOS 17.5.1 update last night. I just got off phone with Apple Technical Support, no solutions as of now. Here’s a list of problems now:

  1. Dropping WiFi A LOT throughout day, 5 min on, then off, repeat
  2. Turning off WiFi, still couldn’work online using 5G
  3. Text and email notifications not working at all, banners nor sound
  4. When WiFi was working during day, I’d send email to myself to check, emails sat in OutBox until I waited 5-10 min then I’d go back to OutBox and push it through a second time. It would then go through

Very concerned I’m not getting important incoming emails.

I haven’t even checked yet if my photos have been messed up like others are reporting (which 17.5.1 was supposed to fix from previous update that caused photo issues)


My internet company is not having issues. My phone provider Verizon isn’t having issues.


This must be iOS huge mistakes. Nothing is related to each other, the only common denominator is 17.5.1

Yep same here, although I’m also having touch screen issues.

I’m constantly having to reboot my phone so that it works again.

Yes!!!


I thought maybe I broke my phone? Or something else maybe a virus?? But this morning my phone randomly shut off and took about 15 mins to start back up, afterwards my face id wouldn’t work, i can’t access my camera in things like snapchat or insta, and on top of that my calendar doesn’t work at all! All of the things on my calendar are gone with no way of fixing it… i tried to add something to my cal and it said “this app does not have access to your calendar” and when i go to my settings there is no way to allow access (Same with camera/mic permissions)


I have no clue what to do!


Does anybody know what to do? Or can anyone provide an update?

Grrr I’m also having issues and I’m ******. Many of my apps don’t work or freeze, I can’t even load the App Store to check for updates! Is there a way to rollback the update? I’ve had an iPhone for 15 years now but I’m so frustrated with the poor camera quality and now a slew of issues that shouldn’t have happened and I’m seriously considering switching to an android as soon as this contract is over. Apple’s quality has gone down in recent years.

IOS 17.5.1 is absolutely shocking; how can it be an official release with so many bugs??


Missed notifications, or no notifications at all…


Constantly dropping Wifi, and no Apple; it’s not my ISP. iPad has zero issues, PS5 has zero issues, Samsung has zero issues, iMac has zero issues… Only issue is with 15 pro Max SINCE updating to 15.5.1. Sort it out. Yes. - done all the pointless resets etc, none of them cure the issue.

Issues with wifi, apps crashing more than normal, location services is a problem between me and my partner (shows no location found despite going through all the troubleshooting), app badges aren’t showing up until refreshing or restarting, App Store doesn’t show available updates until I manually go in and pull down refresh. 17.5 and 17.5.1 have been the most problematic updates for me so far

Ever since updating to iOS 17.5.1 our iPhones no longer find the main Apple TV whose AppleTVOS is also up-to-date in the build-in AppleTV remote control app, it does find the other AppleTV we have just fine… restarted all devices… can use the cheap LG TV remote it works fine… iPhone 15 Pro doesn’t
