I am sure that by now everyone must have installed iOS 16.5, the most recent update. Since the download have you came across any issues? There are many users who had raised some concerns regarding iOS 16.5 issues that occurred after the installation process. I have complied a list of some of the most common iOS 16.5 issues that are occurring. Let’s get started!
Battery Drain
One of the most common causes of battery drain is new software update. no matter how minor the update is, your device will face battery drain issue. This issue occurs because every software update brings some or the other changes and improvements, and your device go through these changes thus losing a lot of battery.
App crashes
Every time you open an app it crashes. We cannot pin it entirely on iOS 16.5 update, as the app must be outdated and you need to update it from the app store, or it might even be corrupted. This might also be the reason of app crash. To solve this, you can delete the app and then reinstall it again.
Wi-Fi connectivity
After updating to iOS 16.5, there were many users who complained that they are not able to connect to Wi-Fi, or loosing connection easily. To solve this issue, you can reset network settings and then reconnect to Wi-Fi again.
Network connectivity
IOS 16.5 also brought some network connectivity issue. many of the users are struggling to connect to their cellular network after updating to iOS 16.5. Before trying any fixes, make sure that you are in full range of network and getting signal. After that you can reset network settings and wait for few minutes to connect.
UI Lag
Slower performance and laggy interface are common complaints after updating to iOS 16.5. To address this issue, clearing your device’s cache can be beneficial. Head over to “Settings,” tap on “Safari,” and select “Clear History and Website Data” to remove any stored data that might be causing the UI lag.
Safari crashing
If you are a frequent safari user than you might have noticed that safari app keeps on crashing every few minutes, and it can be frustrating. Clearing the cache might help solve the issue. Simply go to “Settings,” select “Safari,” and click on “Clear History and Website Data” to clear your device’s cache and potentially resolve the Safari-related issues.
GPS Not Working
There were many users who also reported that their GPS is not working properly after updating to iOS 16.5. It could either be due to iOS 16.5 update, or it could be because of Wi-Fi or data connectivity issue. Either way the only thing that you can try here is to reset your device, and reset your network settings.
If any of the above issues are not solved with the help of the fixes given then you need to contact Apple Support. Note that soon after any software update, issues will occur. We just need to let the update settle down before trying all the fixes.
Until next time, with another topic. Till then, Toodles.
