ios 10.1.1. problems

anyone else having problems with the new update? My phone randomly reboots (literally, rebooting is pretty much the only thing it does). tried backup, default settings, downgrade to iOS 10.1. But constant reboots makes everything impossible.

iPhone SE, iOS 10.1.1, reboot problem

Yes after update my alarm for work did NOT go off. And my clock is skipping numbers on stopwatch. This, for me, this is serious, I depend on my clock for work and now risk losing my job because of this flaw! I believe the screen was flashing for no aparent reason as well. My daughter was witness to all of this and it doing a few other things I can't recall at this moment but she will be able to. We were in car and the phone just started doing its own thing like someone was using it. It was really kind of scary.

Thanks. I'm glad to hear someone else that is experiencing this. I truly rely on my phone. Espeacially my alarm clock, timer, and stopwatch. It relates to work, Rx, school, just about everything. My clock is one of my number one uses of this device. I noticed my stopwatch resetting itself many many times in the past. I thought I was going crazy, saying to myself..."oh, I must had done that..."with a huge question mark as to why..knowing that the time allotted was not complete. It's really thrown me off.

I can guarantee that mine is not a hardware problem. Just before doing the update my iPhone was working really NICE with iOS 9.3.5, but now these continuos random resets...


We need a solution!

Yes, we do. I hope this discussion board helps them to get on the ball. To me...this is pretty serious. It sounds like it is to you as well. In our fast paced society, weather we like it or not....we depend on technology. And for me...it's not like I'm having a robot perform surgery...I just need a dependable clock, timer, stopwatch.....really we are talking 1980's wristwatches here. This is ridiculous.

This is a user-to-user technical support site operated by Apple, Inc. You haven't spoken to Apple support unless you called AppleCare or made a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store.


I didn't have any of the problems described here in the dozens of entries so I don't have any solutions for you except to suggest you update to 10.2. Or do one of the steps mentioned above.

I have iOS 10.2. I write here because is the most posted thread about this issue and it's a problem in this version of iOS as well.

Yes, I did read that but it does not prove you do not have a hardware problem. It may be a coincidence or it may be that iOS 10 triggered a hardware problem that already existed but was not triggered by iOS 9.3.5. Or just the task of updating, which takes a lot of processing power, revealed the issue.


Could you define "incredible amount of people"? As you already said there are about a dozen people posting in this thread.


There are other threads in ASC about this but they all turned out to be related to the battery in the iPhone. You need to forget about your self-diagnosis that it is not hardware and contact Apple.

Unfortunately I must run to the store to buy an old fashioned alarm clock. I can not depend on the iPhone to wake me up. It was right after update that my timer, alarm clock, and related starting moving all by themselves. I saw it happen. Also when I logged in just now...it jumped a line. I had to go back. I didn't do that. This is really bad. Heading to store now. Strongly recommend if you use iPhone as alarm clock.
