"iOS 26 stutter/lag while scrolling in my 16 pro: Hi, this is my first post here. Updated to iOS 26 the day it was available. Since the update my phone is stuttering while scrolling. It almost looks like it’s skipping a frame or two. Searched a lot about it on the web but no solution in sight. Thought this might be an indexing issue but it has been 2 full days and still it lags while scrolling. Please help if there’s anything I can do. It’s frustrating to use my phone after the update."
