Flagship iPhone from just 4 years ago, still running great, gets a software update 1 month before new models released, turns into a buggy pile of junk.
I’m really losing my respect for Apple.

Which model? Still running an iPhone Xs without issue and my wife is still running an SE1.
11 Pro Max. Since I updated the OS a couple days ago I’ve had several bad hangs in multiple apps, including default apps like Messages. Killing the app wouldn’t even help. Power cycling appears to be a solution so far.
Also, check your Batter in Settings. iPhones intentionally throttle perforce once the battery starts to degrade in a poor attempt to extend battery life and avoid crashes.
If it says anything other than “Peak Performance Capability” it’s time for a new battery if you don’t want lower performance.
Says battery capacity is down to 75%. Has been wearing pretty steadily since new, as expected. It has plenty of capacity for my usage & charging habits. But the clunkiness just got noticeably worse in the couple days since the OS update. Would really rather stack Bitcoin than shell out for another one of these things, but whaddaya gonna do. 🤷♂️
Yeah, if it doesn’t say anything like this then it’s probably not a battery problem.
Well, lookit that. It does say that. Ugh. 😂
Couldddd maybe help. Can’t say for sure but search around for a reputable battery replacement option. Funny thing is Apple Store is often the easiest and cheapest. About $90 for a new battery. Can’t promise it will fix it but that would be the only option besides reload OS.
