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:

Dropping WiFi A LOT throughout day, 5 min on, then off, repeat
Turning off WiFi, still couldn’work online using 5G
Text and email notifications not working at all, banners nor sound
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.

After 12 hours of google and reading discussion I finally found a solution. I did a factory reset without iCloud back up and my phone is back to normal. Can not back it up though guys… when I backed it up, it still had the update. Sucks I have to start from stretch on my phone again but at least I had lots of my contacts saved on google.

Cannot use iMessage with the new update. My daughter cannot either. I can’t even access iMessage in my settings. Sometimes when I open iMessage, a blank white screen appears. Other times, it’ll open the app, but it’s unresponsive. And there are other times that it will work, but only briefly. Please fix these issues!

this is such a headache. my issues are equally annoying although slightly different - after updating:

most of my apps are greyed out & when I attempt to open they won't because I've "reached my time limit" - but I don't use screen time limits. and when I look at settings, it's not on. (I checked the VPN & that's not activated either)
Siri has vanished from Setting menu. Where it used to say "Siri & Search" it now says "Face ID & passcode" ..???
Siri has actually vanished altogether. (even tho when I search for it, it says I can find Siri under "Accessibility")
when I got in the car, I got this "CarPlay not available. to use CarPlay, enable Siri in the settings on your iPhone" (which is how I discovered that Siri had gone missing ...

anyone having these issues?

I have been having issues with Wireless Carplay since updating to 17.5.1 which I suspect is being caused by WiFi degradation since updating.

Updated to iOS 17.5.1 last night and have no cell service at all, all day. AT&T stated they had an outage earlier today but it’s been resolved but not for my iPhone 15 pro max…

My recent update has totally screwed with my weather app. I hate updates and their fictional fixes.

I am using iPhone 14 Pro just after updating to 17.5.1 selfie camera not working even using third-party apps still showing blank…

I used to have great cell service at my house, but since the update it’s constantly going to SOS mode. Checked with my provider and all is good on their end. It has to be the update!
