Lots of bugs in ios 11.0.3 on iPhone 6s

Hi Apple,


What have you done with ios 11. Even after 3 updates the stability is terrible.

First of all: a lot of apps aren't working right. they keep crashing or the whole ios crashes and i have to do a hard reset. Even the apps that have been updated work insanly bad.

Second: random ios bugs. like wifi crashing the music app or the volume indicator just stops working. the apps in the bottom part of the screen disappear? the list goes on and on and on.

Last: The battery. i mean my device now only has like 60% of the batterylife it had before. you guys really screwed us over with this terrible update...

please fix asap.

iPhone 6s, iOS 11.0.3

The AAC codec is Apple's proprietary codec. The aptx codec, developed by Qualcomm, is implemented in a large variety of droids. The iPhone does not have it. In fact, Audioengine favors the aptx codec, but also supports Apple's AAC codec.


My iPhone no longer connects to my Audioengine speakers probably because Apple tweaked the codec, rendering it incompatible with my speakers.

Thanks for the info. I have not contacted Audioengine because I know what they are going to say: Apple's latest iOS does not work with their equipment anymore. I have been using these speakers for quite some time with iOS 10 without any problems at all.


In fact, I used to sit back in my easy chair and play music for hours from my iPhone. Now I can connect, but the connection is immediately dropped as soon as I hit play. Once in a long while, I can play an album, but when I choose another album--WHAMMO--the connection drops.

I was just about to respond to William too, i fail to understand why he even commented on here with nothing tangible to offer. If millions are not having the issue, it doesn't mean the few that have problems shouldn't notify Apple. My phone has been pretty much useless since the update with multiple apps freezing and phone restarting constantly.

Empirical evidence suggests that my speakers' Bluetooth implementation is fine. I played my music with my iPhone for almost a year. The more logical conclusion is that Apple's latest implementation of Bluetooth is flawed. This conclusion can be further supported by the number of users who did not have a problem with Bluetooth until iOS 11.0.3 was released.


Think.

I have an Ipad Pro (12.9). Ever since the 11.0.3 update the touch sensitivity has become unbearable. I have to tap the screen numerous times to open an app. Some Applications I paid for have been rendered useless. Videos and movies

freeze. The volume control no longer appears on the screen to adjust volume. The touch sensitivity is driving me nuts

tapping numerous times to open an app. I am going back to my Android devices. Android tablet now runs rings around

the placemat Ipad.

Joining the list of everyone here - in fact, couldn't listen to a voicemail a minute ago -frozen. Can't get Siri to pull up a contact to call in my car as of the update. Horrid battery, constant freezing, volume iffy. Did a soft reset but not fixed. Was really hoping the 11.0.3 would fix all the problems with 0.2 BUT instead they are worse on my 6 Plus. Will try the backup/full-reset but don't have much hope. As far a users reporting - it took me 20 minutes to find this thread here in communities and I finally gave up using the search bar to do it - I think they know the problems but may have taken out a few "keywords" from the Search- Apple, take responsibility and fix this stuff! I want to stay with this phone - have had every iPhone ever made, but may have to bail if they can't produce a clean iOS.

I totally agree with comment made above. This is the first time in my using the iPhone since the very first iPhone that I am completely disappointed with Apple’s lack of attention to a new release, iOS 11, even after three updates it still is not working. FYI, some of us actually do things with our device, unlike your competitor, and that’s why we have been so loyal to Apple.

I don't know if you realize how you are abrasive in the tone of your responses.


People are already upset with their phones and software updates, no one needs you to state the obvious.


Telling everyone to bring their phone in to the store which many of us have already done is not helpful.


Saying go ahead and go to android ... also not helpful.


Sometimes its best to say nothing, if your suggestions are not helpful.

I'm spreading the word to every person that I see with an iPhone - DO NOT UPDATE TO IOS 11!

Why would you do that? IOS-11 is not the cause of your problems. If it was, millions of users would be impacted. Between my family and friends, I have personal knowledge of about a dozen iPhones, all at IOS-11.03 and NONE OF WHOM ARE HAVING ANY PROBLEMS.
