Some apps are unable to connect after iOS 26.0.1 update after IOS 26.0 update Amazon, Chatgpt, Line and others work Instagram FB Shopee Grok Gemini and others can't connect via Wi-Fi or 4G . Restarted modem and Iphone, reset network settings, updated to 26.0.1 and tried a normal restore via Itune. The issue persists across Wi-Fi and 4G. The only things I haven't done are a DFU restore or erasing the phone [Re-Titled by Moderator] Original Title: after IOS 26.0 / 26.0.1 update , some apps can't connect

New iPhone 17 - Some apps don't work on Wi-Fi "No Route to Host" So picked up a brand new iPhone 17 yesterday, running iOS 26.1. Old iPhone was a 12 Pro running 18.7.1 I have yet not transferred my cell number to the new phone, so I could have a few days to get used to iOS 26 and make sure everything is running OK. I do have one big issue: many apps can't use wifi it seems. The error message is typically "No route to host" or similar. Examples of apps not working Facebook - Error message is Connect failed (immediately), type = Socket not open, errno = 65 (No route to host) Instragram Yahoo X Apps that work fine: YouTube Gmail Reddit Linkedin Twitch This is happening on multiple wifi networks. The old phone or an iPad running iOS 26 works fine for all apps.

If any VPN apps are installed, remove all installed, restart, and try again.
