iPhone lagging after iOS 18 Update

After today’s update, I’m facing immense lagging issue with the UI, while playing games ( graphics as Average) and typing pauses. System had utilised only 50% storage. What’s the suggested solutions?

I've downloaded the IOS 18 update a couple of days ago but it's really laggy. Internet is a little slow on my Safari & my Photos keeps randomly reloading and crashing for some reason. I believe there's some sort of bug or glitch there. Please fix it as soon as possible, thanks. Also my battery is going down faster than it normally does, can you please fix that as soon as possible as well? Also my screen time limit is going off much more earlier than usual for some reason. Can you please fix that as well ASAP?! And my screen has been randomly freezing for no reason at all. Please fix that as well ASAP! 😢😭

This again?


See 255623013 about the excessive battery consumption as a result of the iOS 17.6.1 update.

First, understand that the software does housekeeping after an update. It can usually be accomplished overnight but that depends on your device and its data. Try to install updates overnight and leave the device on the charger (It’s ok to do so and won’t ruin the battery. That rule applied to older battery technology). This is so that processor intensive tasks like file indexing for Spotlight Search or iCloud syncing can occur then and not during your day.

It's not "lagging" and "slow". It's just invisibly super busy for a while, after the update.

That's my theory anyway.
