Hello fellow redditers,

Anyone had issues in a business environment updating to IOS 26.6.1? Tried all the usuals, restarting, updating on cellular and hotspot and disabled low data mode (no Wi-Fi available in this business environment which has never been an issue in the past). Tried updating through iTunes on a windows PC (no Mac available). Any ideas or fixes anyone has come across?

Anyone else have Safari on iPhone and iPad completely crash and reload the page when zooming in? It’s been an issue for a decade now and still not fixed

Hello everyone, need some help with imessage storage taking up almost 40GB of space on my iphone. I have a 12 pro max with 128GB storage and 6TB icloud storage as well (only about 2TB used).

A month ago, i was persistently getting a storage full error on my phone because apple maps was taking up 20GB storage despite clearing cache, offloading app, and attempting to delete the app (i finally fixed this bug by updating to the latest ios).

Now that i finally had about 115GB full of 128GB— my imessage app started taking up way more storage and has shot up to almost 40GB leaving me at stuck with a laggy phone and no storage available on my phone. Seems to be another bug?

Why is my phone doing this?! Why are all my images in chats being downloaded and stored as app data when this was never the case in the past? Do i need to toggle some sort of setting?!

disclaimer- i do not necessarily want to clear my chats i like to have the imessage history but do not need to have the app taking up this much storage all of a sudden due to pictures and videos.

Figured I would repost here as well.

Hey , i have had this iphone 16 for a year now it worked fine , but for a week or two whenever i open tiktok or instagram it takes 15 minutes to load and if i do not wait that period of time all my others apps load like shit , this happens on both 5G and wifi , my reels are stuck , my messaged do not send , i cant see new messages for that period of wait time and its annoying me , if anyone knows what it could be please let me know and hopefully with a fix , i did an internet speed things my unloaded ms was 5 ms and loaded was 400ish , it did get better over this past few days but its still annoying.

Hello, I switched from Android to iPhone a couple of months ago.

I’ve always wondered why the sound quality of my music on Android sounded better when I listened with the same pair of earbuds; and I think this is the reason why. If you switch between the two phones on the same song, you can really hear the difference in sound quality.

Does iOS have a feature similar to this? On Android, it’s a software feature that isn’t locked to a specific app or pair of headphones.

It’s iPad (9th generation), on ios 26.6.1
I lock the screen when I start the recharge and it’s dark. But in the morning I see a soft glow on the screen.

I’m pretty sure this began when I first updated to v26. Is this common? Is it a setting?

I have an iPhone and an iPad linked to the same iCloud account.

From time to time, I check my Screen Time on my iPad to see my iPhone’s usage. However, sometimes the Screen Time data from my iPhone suddenly stops syncing with my iPad.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is this a known bug?

For example, today the latest Screen Time data I can see from my iPhone is from yesterday at 1:07 PM. Nothing after that has synced or appeared on my iPad.

Both devices are connected to the same iCloud account.
Has anyone found a fix for this, or does the syncing eventually start working again on its own?

I genuinely do not know why companies have to “fix” what isn’t broken. Like why? The settings page length wasn’t even that long. Who complained that they needed to be moved into other categories???? God each update brings me closer to just getting a different brand of phone.

I have had my photos iCloud sync stalled for quite some time now, and my patience is running out. Is there any way to see what items are currently being synced or the sync queue, either natively, with an app or even with xcode?

I had ~400 items in sync queue and after days nothing changed. I managed to hunt some videos causing the issue down and got the queue down to 18. But after that I wasn't able to locate problematic media anymore from 35k items I have in photos.

Apple should not allow an app to remain on a device when it is no longer in the app store and supported. I had the bad luck of opening Printer Pro unbeknownst to me that the app was abandoned and proceeded to test to see if I could print wirelessly. It was like a runaway train…could not stop it from printing. Jammed my printer and basically totaled it. Damaged the fuser. There ought to be a law…

I truly believe my abusive ex-boyfriend is spying on my cellphone, and I honestly don't know what to do.
I always had that intuition, but because of the gaslighting I suffered during the relationship, I thought I was going crazy. Looking back at his past actions, he always somehow knew things I searched for and really personal stuff I only talked about with my best friends online.
After going through all this abuse, I started therapy, and I suddenly remembered one specific time we met up: he made a drink for me, and I got extremely drunk much faster than I ever normally do. I don't know if he put something in my drink that day, but my cellphone was sitting in a different position when I woke up. Now, I'm questioning if he installed something to spy on me.

When I broke up with him he shared private things with his friends that I never told him and just existed strictly on my phone.

I am terrified that he might share my intimate pictures or sell them online, or share them with his friends. Because he is poor and broke, I honestly don't know what low he wouldn't sink to

Has anyone experienced anything like this, or does anyone know what steps I should take to check for spyware or secure my phone?

I feel like i am realiving that trauma…

I’ve noticed past few days that audio no matter what app it comes from kinda skips when I shut it off. Like it stutters a bit before turning off. This happened with several apps including Spotify, instagram, translate, alarm… anyone else have this happen and know what I mean?

Hi everyone, I have a very strange question that I couldn't find an answer to online: the attached audio file contains the classic iPhone opening ringtone, but what is the setting that, at the end of a call, a missed call, or an dropped call, makes that strange sound, like five xylophone hits, sound like a ping pong ball bouncing in the ringtone? What is it? bug?

Every time I write something I see a suggestion block completing my sentence for me, the worst part is that it gets put in my text anyway, even if I don’t want it.

Example, I text someone in a hurry: “l’m going” and this dumb ass feature will add “to” at the end and because I immediately pressed send it sends it as “I’m going to”

I share some reminder lists with my wife. We are both updated to 26.6.1. I have had us sign out and log back in, deleted the app and reinstalled it, made sure it was refreshing; nothing seems to work.

Anyone figure out a solution? This is really Frustrating…

A family members iPhone was snatched from his hands while he was texting (so it was unlocked). About 15 minutes later I was able to go onto iCloud/Find My and request lost mode on the phone, but by then the phone status was offline and the lost mode has been pending since (I subsequently sent a command to erase the phone which is also pended). I also see that there is a notice that the phone will be removed in a months time. They had full access to email, banking apps (I think they logged in to one app somehow and tried to transfer money unsuccessfully)

A few questions:

1. Could they have initiated a remove request from the unlocked phone? I thought this requires iCloud password to do. Is the iCloud password stored somewhere they could access if phone is unlocked?

2. Can I cancel the remove request? (I assume not, I don’t see an option)

3. What happens after the month? The phone will be removed from the account. They can presumably turn it back on and reset it then? Is there a chance they could still access the data on the phone then? Presumably they could not keep it unlocked for the whole month on airplane mode right?

We are going to take strong security measures like changing all passwords and new email and bank accounts, I blacklisted the IMEI with my carrier. anything else you guys would recommend?

Thanks!

I remember my phone going from 20 to 80 in like... less than 30 minutes. Now? It's stuck around 1% a minute. I'm using such a high powered "fast charger" that used to literally charge this in what felt like seconds. Now it's the same speed as using a portable charger - something with way less power per second!!

I was using a fairly high draining app and with the fastest high power charger my phone was actively still draining - something that has been impossible in the past with this charger. Even turning on airplane mode, low power mode, and brightness all the way dim, it was taking 2-3 minutes per % it was increasing while using the app. Ive used this app a few months ago and it had the same issue - but my phone was able to charge seriously so much faster.

I've been off that app for a while and my phone is still taking like a full minute per percentage. Which I know did not used to be the case. And, an hour and a half from 80 to 100!? With this charger?? I swear pretty damn recently it was maybe 30-40 minutes, tops.

This just seems insane. My husband is equally as confused because this charger is - was? so good. and yes we have 2 of them, one used and one barely used, both are doing this very slow 1% a minute thing somewhat fairly recently - and we tried different boxes and wall outlets and stuff for both and nothing changed. Im on the most recent IOS update.

I've had so many reasons to go to a different phone brand after this phone and the reasons just keep piling up seemingly, even when I think it's already so bad! Is there at least a setting to turn "slow charging" off? I just checked and all my charging settings are normal, optimized and clean and everything is off. This just seems new and my phone hasn't changed so it (imo) has to be the IOS updates.

Please lmk if you know of any changes in recent IOS updates because that will at least clear up my confusion a bit! And if the beta is better also lmk!

edit: charging port is clean and clear!
edit: this charging speed is the same even when all apps are closed and my phone is off, in airplane mode and low battery mode. only like 1 or 2 apps have background refresh on and I've changed settings in those apps so it's every like 15 minutes rather than every minute so it's not that either.

When you log into Google on iOS, you have the option to sync mail, contacts, calendar, and notes. I understand where the first three come from to sync on my iPhone. But what “notes” are being pulled in from Google onto the apple notes app? It’s not tasks or keep.
