I updated my iOS to 18.1.1 on my iPhone pro max 16 last night and this morning I’d say about 80% of my apps refuse to open. Reinstalling doesn’t seem to solve the issue. Causing me major issues as I can’t open my banking apps to verify transactions. Can anyone tell me how to roll back my iOS update or if there is a fix?

iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18
I found a way to open the apps. It was still a big pain.... I went into the App Store app. I then clicked on my profile at the top of the app. I updated any apps that needed updating, and then opened every app one by one from the App Store app. I had to find and re-enter some of my passwords, but I believe everything is working now. The biggest headache was getting my password manager app working to allow me to get to the passwords.
Odd you haven’t named a single app like I requested. Apple will want to know too so please figure out what apps aren’t working.
Do you have cellular data turned off? If it’s off turn it. If it’s on and doesn’t work, it’s a carrier issue and you need to talk to the carriers support team and find out why you don’t have data.

iOS 18.2.1 is out
Rebooted 3 times. There are no apps that require updating. So far some of the apps that won’t open are DBS Banking, OCBC banking, LinkedIn , ANZ, Citibank SG, sleep cycle. The ones that work are discord, Instagram and X.
Yep force restarted 3 times. Wifi no issues. Cell signal is strong. Strange thing is some of the apps did work earlier but then now it seems like more are failing to open. The only 2 other things I did were buy an e-sim for the first time and backup my iPhone for the first time onto a MacBook
I’m glad to hear the issue is resolved. Ifs very odd so many banking apps needed to be deleted and reinstalled. I still suspect it’s ultimately related to VPN usage/profile. VPN is the scammers best friend.
Still it’s great you’re all set and I hope you have a great week.
Hi , sorry to jump on but I’m having the same trouble since stupidly updating on Saturday night! Spent most of Sunday trying to sort this out including contacting support and senior support phoning me. There only answer was to go back to my last back up through a computer. I don’t have a computer that I can use. No Apple stores near to me. Tried all of their suggestions, forcing reboot, deleted one app and tried to reinstall but just get the wheel of doom!
Should I try deleting all apps, then force a reboot and try again? I’ve been so peeved off that I’ve ordered a new iPad however the one that has been left pretty much unusable by the update was perfectly ok prior to the update.
I’m a lot less HappyCatHertfordshire than I was before the update, broken iPad and bank balance.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
BTW, I started to do this per Youtube Video (How To Downgrade iOS 18 to iOS 17 Without Losing Any Data) using iTunes (I did back up the phone to iTunes prior to the update), iTunes was downloading the update, but the phone rebooted itself before the update was downloaded.
After the update I cannot access some websites and bank sites. I enter a link and the then it freezes.
i can see that others have similar problems but the issue seems to be (so far) ignored by Apple.

Just updated to 18.1.1. The vast majority of my apps start to open, then the icon disappears and does not start. Don't have a VPN, did force reboot several times. Very upset with Apple that they push out this updates, and then we must uninstall and reinstall all of our apps. REDICULOUS!!! Haven't seen any solutions from Apple, and the posts I read do not help.
One of my apps that is not working is health Gluco-smart. It opens for a split second, then abruptly closes. If I delete it and try to download again, I will lose all my readings. I haven’t had any issues with it pre-update.

It was working fine until the update - the issue is with Apple, not Garmin.
You can believe that if you choose, but if you think Apple is going to fix anything that changed on your Garmin watch, they can't and they won't. Apple doesn't own the Garmin App, nor did they sell you a Garmin Watch. They have literally nothing to do with Garmin. If something changed on your Garmin Watch, it's up to Garmin to address.
Yeah same here. My iPhone has turned with this new update. I’m having issues with connecting to wifi. My iPad Pro and Mac is fine! My iPhone is defaulting to cellular only and I have to turn cellular off to make my iPhone use wifi. Anyone else having this issue? And no my wifi is fine, as I said IPad and MacBook connect and use it immediately.

I updated my IPhone 12 Pro Max on 11/24/24 I believe. I have it on auto update and think that is the correct date. The first issue noticed is the Face ID stopped working and will not allow me to reset. I then noticed the camera sometimes works and sometimes shows me just a blank screen happens approx 50% of the time. Tonight I turned on the light to make my way in the dark outside and it turned off after approx 30 seconds. The light no longer works. This is a phone that has been working flawlessly for a few years now. I am now in the process of wiping the phone and seeing if restoring from the cloud will fix it. Have heard about some of the 18.1.1 update issues, but nothing to this extent. Been an iPhone owner since the beginning. This is stupidly ridiculous.
Apps don’t work after updating to iOS 18.1.1
