Lots of bugs in ios 11.0.3 on iPhone 6s

Biggie is battery life on my 6s - just last night 58 min of talk time dropped battery by over 30% - it is horrible. Where Apple gets their battery life estimates must be in perfect lab conditions - real life is far from their numbers. Terrible!

Second thing is they took away the clear button for the most recent notifications - seems like the only way to get rifd of them is to ignore them until they are old enough to clear or clear each one individually which a royal pita if there is a long list. Long list also do not seem to scroll well so it seems impossible to get to the older notifications, at least on the lock screen.

More crap from apple force feeding us their ideals rather than letting us choose!

Hi William,

I’m what you would call a fanatic Apple user. I say user as I don’t have a degree in computer science.

Bought the new iPhone 8. October 15 from Apple regent street London UK. It updated itself to 11.0.3.

I am pretty certain that there is a bug in initiating a message from your call list. Pressing the message button does open a new message but without the receiver’s name at the address line.

I’m sure it’ll be fixed in the next update but it’s unfair to say there is nothing wrong with iOS 11.0.3.

Let’s hope the programmers work it out. Fingers crossed mate !

To those who say the issue is with the phones, not the software, because otherwise “more people would complain”:

That article is indicative of almost nothing. "Lots of people" are reporting problems on reddit (my go to for reliable information!). And a graph from...where? IIt's also about iOS 11.0.1.

Please don’t duplicate answers, your only answer is “the iOS 11 works perfectly, send your device to service” we got it, thank you so much

Unless you intend to actually help others it is bad form to criticize those that do.

Not to mention that it uses this forum as a source. Thus completing the circle. Or that Forbes traditionally publishes "fake news" about Apple, whose editors despise Apple. However, Forbes also has a long history of including ads on its site that attempt to install malware on your computer. So it is really risky to go to forbes.com for anything.

The graph was what really got to me. Even an organization like Forbes should be ashamed of that.

But, hey, they gave proper attribution to all the reddit posts!

Whatever they can do to sell magazines.

I am also having a lot of issues with my iPhone 6s since the latest update. None of my apps will automatically update any more. I have checked the settings and it is set to auto-update but it’s not working.

1571 people have this question William. Drop in the ocean though, right?

Even if it was certain that that number represented people with the issue, yes, it would be just a drop in the ocean.

As it is, all that number tells is is that 1571 people have clicked a button. They may or may not have the issue. They may just be interested in the topic.

Running 11.0.3 on a 64gb 6s Plus here and its the worst OS performance I've seen on an iPhone and I've had each one since the 3G. Apple really need to sort this as it's coming at a time when the pull of Android has never been stronger.

My battery was so bad after 11.0.3 that I thought there was something wrong with my battery. I had the battery replaced yesterday. Now I see everyone is having battery problems. I want my $60 back from Apple. Can you hear me Apple?

Just saying: I'm experiencing pretty much the same issues as the frustrated user above. I'm frustrated user myself, don;t go out of your way to make patronising snide remarks. Rather send someone on their way with knowledge as to what they can try next, than showing all your noddie badges off.

Don't go out of your way just to tell another what they should do. It is not your place to do so.

My phone 6s 64 gig is done! After the new iOS update, I am on my third charge today with the least amount of use sense we got these phones from Verizon a little over a year ago... Fed Up with these terrible updates that seemingly destroy a perfectly good phone forcing my family to buy new phones? I don’t think so not again!

Perhaps it isn't the iOS that is causing your battery problem. If you have had to charge 3 times in one day I would say it is time to get your phone looked at and your battery tested. In Settings > Battery > Usage what app/process is showing the most battery use.

Why are you carrying water for Apple? You can go on chat with Apple and they can run a diagnostic on your phone hardware in realtime - took me about 10 minutes last night to do that with them. My hardware on my 6S was A-OK so its software according to Apple. All they recommend is backing up my phone and performing a factory reset. My phone worked fine before 11.0.3

So I know for sure the reason my battery only lasts 90 -120 minutes running apps is software. I have to charge many times a day now and it has nothing whatsoever to do with hardware as confirmed by Apple.
