Potential issues with iOS 26 update

I found a strange bug when I shoot video in cinema mode the aperture number shows up in a dark area to the left of the dynaic island.

Have exactly the same issue. Suddenly I cant swipe between screens. With the pen I can. A forced restart (cannot swipe to shut too) helps but after a while the issue returns.

Hello, the issue I find in the latest update of IOS 26.1 is that when you answer a call or hang up there is no haptics like it used to have before the update.

iOS 26 has totally ruined my experience- freezing , glitching , unresponsive keyboards - I’ve reset my phone more times the past 2 months than I had in 10yrs of iPhone usage

Asking a question like that here on a support forum is like walking into the Emergency Room at the hospital and ask if anyone is sick.

No one would come here if everything is fine. While some people are experiencing some problems, given the number of devices updating to iOS 26, it is a small percentage. I've not experienced any problems with my iPhone 16 Pro Max, or my iPad Pro 11.

Updated the new iOS on my iPhone last week. I’ve been having issues on social media platforms like Facebook- scrolling on my friend’s/ family’s pictures does not allow me to scroll all the way down- it’s choppy. Also whenever I use FaceTime, I automatically get my call ended. Very weird and I asked if my friends/ family ended the call and they said no. I did update on my iPad and experienced the same things such as scrolling through pictures.

Anyone else have the same problem??? It could be from Facebook too or other social media platforms have been affected. I hope they are able to fix these things asap.

Mine is doing the same but with messaging an FaceTime. I click to text and it’s frozen, won’t do anything. Same with FaceTime, won’t work. I’ve hard restarted multiple times and have to continue doing until it works. I don’t know what’s wrong or what to to 😑

iPhone13 ringer is muted for notifications. I’ve checked all that I know about to see if it’s muted somehow. There is nothing in settings that shows muted. The red bell with a slash through it shows when I press the volume up or down button. Calls ring ok but messages and notifications only vibrate.

I updated to iOS 26 on Friday. Now my iMessages brings up a blank, white screen. I can’t get into my texts. My phone app goes in and out. I can’t receive calls or call out. Went to my wireless carrier & they told me that it was an Apple issue. I was able to chat with Apple on my computer & they couldn’t do anything. Said I would have to take it to an Apple Store. Going to do that today. Very frustrating. My phone is close to being paid off & was working fine.

I updated to iOS26 on my iPhone 16 Pro. Now l cannot make outgoing calls using sim card. i have reset my phone and restarted a number of times still no change. i have approached my network provider still cannot resolve the problem

Since installing iOS 26, some websites have the blinking cursor one line BELOW where I am typing. If I move it to the line I’m typing, it affects the line above me instead of the line I’m working on. Also an issue with certain buttons like post.

I actually like the appearance and functionality. The experience feels more like an Android with the new multitasking features, which I love.

I have an Apple 16 ProMax, why did Apple go from IOS 18 to IOS 26? Usually, OS updates increase by one digit. OS26 does nothing for me. Unresponsive screen issues as other community members said. Also, the phone contacts screens are more complicated to navigate than the OS18. When I first did the update several of my Apple icons had white lines outlining the perimeter of the icons - I thought that the whole OS 26 update was a fraudulent update especially due to an 8 digit increase in the OS - left me thinking that this was a hacker’s overlay. Lastly, all processors seem to be slower. Very dis appointed.

My brand new iPhone 17 Pro keeps going on recovery mode. It has done it since the minute I bought it. Apple has not been able to provide a fix. We have done so many force restarts, restores etc but no one can tell me whats wrong with it. It's unfortunate since it is a brand new iPhone.

I’m having this same problem and I don’t know what else to do. I’ve turned it on and off so many times and hard reset my phone twice . How do I uninstall the update because at this point, I don’t want it anymore.

Updated my ipad last night with ios26, now since morning i am not able to open any app. The swipe motion is also working very slow and i am also unable to restart or shut off the ipad since there is no response from anything i do on screen. How to manage this? I did try the long press on the screen lock button but again nothing is happening.
