The iOS 26 update has been harassing users from the beginning. On social media, people are complaining of disturbances in basic functions like battery, getting over, calling, calling and display. Apple has claimed performance and security upgrade, but iPhone and iPad users say the devices are now slow, incredible and full of bugs. The company will soon release a new patch to solve this problem.
Common problems after iOS 26 update
Overheat
Many users say that the iPhone is getting hot faster and the battery is also ending faster than before.
User @verdeselvans wrote:
‘The device is getting hot faster (Apple says it is normal, so we will see next week). The battery life is slightly reduced.
Tech commentator @nixcraft further said:
‘iOS 26 is not only the UI full of bugs, but this battery is quickly finished compared to the old iPhones. Apple’s software quality /dev /null is happening. ‘
Displays and brightness disturbances
After the update, there are problems in screen brightness and display orientation.
@Verdeselvans told:
‘Screen is a bug in brightness due to which the phone slows down without any reason.’
Another user @jotatheslotta complained of rotation failure:
‘Is anyone else having a problem in rotation in landscape mode from portrait in iOS 26? YouTube, Safari or other apps are not getting at all. Settings are also correct. ‘
App is getting freeze and lag
Some users are having trouble switching between apps.
@Techuchit told:
After installing iOS 26, I noticed that the lag was coming while switching the apps. And the app icon on which you tap is sometimes not redirect on the app running in the background.
Apart from this, there are also disturbances in WhatsApp.
iPad-specific bug
Users running iPados 26 are facing more problems.
@Chowakaumba shared his experience on M1 iPad Pro:
Both iPad OS 26 and iOS 26 are still full of bugs. The Windows feature is a mess. The keyboard was not working properly for hours. My device is almost freezing.
Connectivity and call failure
Some users say that the basic work of the phone has also been interrupted after the update.

@Titangadgetsug pointed to Apple’s warning:
‘Apple himself has said that iOS updates can cause problems related to bugs and performance such as overheating and internet problems.’
Problems of accessibility
Accessibility settings are also not working for some users.

‘iOS 26 is useless. Everything seems messy and incredible. I have turned on the black-white filter to reduce the phone’s use, but it is not working after the update. Apple has spoiled everything.
