iPhone 12 Pro slow after iOS update

Hello Apple Support,




I am using an iPhone 12 Pro, and since installing the latest iOS update, my device has not been working properly.




I am experiencing performance issues such as slow response, bugs, and system instability. The phone feels laggy and some features do not work as expected anymore.




This update has negatively affected my daily use of the device, and I did not have these problems before the update.




I would appreciate it if you could look into this issue and provide a fix or guidance as soon as possible.




Thank you for your support.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 26

Try a Forced Restart.

  • Press and quickly release the Volume Up Button
  • Press and quickly release the Volume Down Button
  • Press and hold the Side Button until you see the Apple Logo

Also some settings to check.

  • Settings > Battery > Battery Health. What percent is displayed?
  • Settings > General > iPhone Storage. How much storage out of what are you occupying?
