IPHONE 13 updated to 26.2 mobile just stopped receiving calls also when i make calls it takes extremely long to call. It also became very slow. This update is very buggy. Is there a way for me to revert back to previous versions. This is a inconvenience especially when i use my fone for work purposes. My partner with a iphone 11 has the same issues. So its not a FONE ISSUE. Clearly its a SOFTWARE ISSUE.
iPhone 13, iOS 26
It's not always the iOS update's fault! Many things can cause phone problems. If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.
Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!
Was/Is your device Jailbroken? If that's the situation, please be informed that attributing the issues to iOS updates may not be accurate.
iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.
Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.
Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
See what each update does: OS — iOS 26, About iOS 18 Updates, About iOS 17 Updates, About iOS 16 Updates, About iOS 15 Updates, About iOS 14 Updates, About iOS 13 Updates, About iOS 12 Updates, and so on...
This does not work.
Check your iPhone settings
Go to Settings and turn on Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn it off. Check Do Not Disturb. Go to Settings > Focus > Do Not Disturb and make sure it's turned off. Check for any blocked phone numbers.

What is common to both phones? Cell Provider? VPN provider? VPN can do this and should never be installed in ios26.
I am also facing the same while on IOS 26.1 it was not noticeable but on IOS 26.2 Call logs loading takes time around 1-2 seconds and for the best case scenario 0.30 second, While i do have storage as well as no VPN and other stuffs.
I HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM! 26.2 has the new call screening feature which affected my network. Once i turned this off my phone went back to normal. If you having similar issues do as follows
>Settings
>Phone
>scroll down to Screen Unknown Callers
>Choose Never
Hi i have solved my issue. If you have your call screen feature on it will do that.
>Go to Settings
>Apps>Phone
>scroll down to Screening unknown calls>Choose Never.
let me know if it works it worked for me.
Both phones has been upgraded to 26.2 the only common thing we have different carriers and different iphones. I have vpn which i barely use.
The only thing i can think of that could affect calling is the new Call screening feature. I will figure it out.
