Potential issues with iOS 26 update

The battery is draining much faster after updating to iOS 26 compared to the previous version.

just update to IOS 26 and when I scroll through facebook photos it lags significantly and I have also seen other people experiencing this please fix it ASAP.

My phone signed me out of my google account after updating it to iOS 26 and now I can’t text I really need to text I can’t use the email I have to sign back in

After updating ios 26.0.1 in iphone 16 pro. I am facing face id issue while unlocking iphone. after unlocking app icons are not showing. Heating issue,battery health become 100 to 96%.

Make an appointment at the Apple Store / Genius Bar or take the phone to an authorized Apple service shop.

I updated to IOS 26.0.1 and my Magic Keyboard can longer delete Outlook emails from the Delete key. This was a feature I used frequently and I have tried all troubleshooting suggested.

I’m using an iPhone 11,updated with IOS 26.

Black horizontal line on my screen still spreading,lagging,battery reduced

battery health is on 93% was working perfectly before update,overheating too

I updated my iPad Pro 11 M2 to iOS 26 without issues as well. I always do a Force Restart after doing a major iOS update and my only issue has been at times the Calendar when opened when Week is selected, it will still appear as Month. It seems to have corrected itself today, so no issues.

Just updated to iOS26 yesterday night. When I’m on the home screen and I try to swipe through the windows, it just randomly restarts. Sometimes it doesn’t restart completely, sometimes it completely shuts down. Basically I can’t look for apps manually because of this but only by writing them on the search bar. Please fix this.

I do not use haptics except on silent so I noticed that my phone had silenced post-update immediately. I know you said your case muted the phone, but my case isn’t anywhere near the buttons. I still flipped it off and on just to be sure but it was still vibrating. I assumed it was something new but after an unsuccessful tour of the settings, I gave up. About an hour after the update, I turned the ringer off and then on again…then it worked. What I am not seeing is reports of the phone sleeping right away. My battery charge is fine, and I checked my settings to see if I was in low battery mode. Nope. Suuuuper buggy.

A Force Restart did not fix this issue - the Calendar app always opens in the Month view even though the last time I used it was in the Week view. I have an iPad Pro 11” 3rd gen. My wife has the same issue with her iPad Air 2nd generation.

When i scroll down for search at the main screen the search appears, and at the right side of the screen there are some strange pixels appearing and moving when i rotate the phone in my hand

iPad Pro 4th gen. Updated to iOS 26 with no issue. Restores backup and then reboots and stalls at an Apple logo. Tried 5 times. Tried and older backup. Can’t do it. iPhone 14 worked albeit it stalled a few times. Working decently now.

Unfortunately this isn’t seeming to work for several iPhones that have updated. Over a dozen time across multiple days and have gone through the process online to activate my account. Still get the error, and haven’t heard anything back from Apple.

going to make the hour drive to the closest Apple Store tomorrow to see if they can help.

After updating to iOS26 I noticed a problem with instagram DMs. When i click the media icon to send a photo in-chat, it no longer gives me the option to browse through my albums, it just shows the recents. I tried updating the Instagram app, but it did not solve my problem.

I came here first as I couldn’t find any information about this with iOS or IG on google.

Anyone else with this problem, or a solution?
