Uninstall ios26 Update

ios26 Update has totally destroyed my iphone14 experience, it is ghostly and is not as functional as previous. More tapping on keys are required to get what you want, in Safari, I can no longer delete cookies, it only "clears" them, but going into Settings/Safari and finding the long list of website cookies were still there surprised me, so that "clear icon" on Safari is totally useless; so now I have to go directly into settings/safari etc and then actually delete cookies, this is what I meant, more tapping😩 I am going to have to replace this iphone 14, impossible to restore and undo ios26 update😢

Blurry Screen After Update:

A. Start with a Force Restart:

Go Here: Force Restart iPhone - Apple Support

B. Take a Screenshot:

Is Photos enabled under iCloud? Go here: Take a Screenshot -Apple Support

Take a screenshot, and then see if you can see it in iCloud Photos: https://www.icloud.com/photos. If seen, then it is a software issue. If not seen, then it is a hardware issue, and you should get this fixed.

D. Update to iOS 26.1 Using a Computer:

iOS 26.1 was just released. So, try updating it, this time using a computer. Report back of that does the fix. Use my User Tip: Update your iPhone Using a Computer - Apple Community

D. Reset to Factory Settings.

As a last resort resetting this to Factory Settings may do the job: How to factory reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
