Why iPhones Slow Down After A Software Update

If you’ve updated your iPhone to a new version of iOS and felt like it became slower, you’re not alone. Apple’s been accused of slowing down older iPhone models to get more people to upgrade, but that’s not actually what’s going on here.

[@Slurkz]

I’m still on an iPhone 7. I had the battery replaced a year ago, and I make sure to leave at least 20GB of storage available. With these measures it continues to be pretty snappy, even on iOS 15.4.

[@maek555]

Yes 20GB is a must have to be free! I have SE2 and when I’m on 10-15GB storage left it just feels a lot slower compared to when it has around 20GB~ free. Even tho I’m on 14.8.1 it still happens a lot.

[@colt5189]

The one good thing about these home button SE models, is that will likely help keep updates going for older home button devices like the 7 for many many more years. Though I did have a problem for like a year where my home button would hardly recognize my finger. It was real annoying having to punch in my code every time, though it's been working fine for 6 months now. Did you ever have that problem?

[@kylecastellino5435]

@@The_real_paill_neverdies because he has an se 2 and that doesn't make sense when apple gives you 5 years of upgrades .. plus the se 3 just has incremental upgrades like processor, battery and 5G. Nothing game changing imo.

[@Sacto1654]

Actually, some people recommend you change the battery on your iPhone ever 30-36 months. Also, be aware that if you upgrade to a new iOS version, your phone may be "reindexing" certain code for a couple of days as a gets used to the new version of IOS, causing slowdowns. If you phone is still lagging after a couple of days, it may be time to get a new battery installed.

[@Angelsanddevils]

That’s what mine did. It slowed way down for a few days, but it’s a lot faster again. I never had an upgrade do that, or maybe I just didn’t notice, I use my iPad more than my phone.

[@anona3918]

actually it doesn't slow down your iphone. new updates are always gonna include new features and new stuff so basically when you upgrade your phones is gonna use more of the CPU and ram because of the new features and new stuff that are running there for your phone gets a little slower every year. that's why apple releases new phones every year. so the updated processor could handle all the features in the software. if this is something you can't understand sorry your stupid. not just apple does this. every company that makes hardware and software is on the same boat. this is what exactly happens. it has nothing to do with what you read on the internet about codes my friend

[@uthmanbaksh3530]

I don't know if anyone is willing to buy iPhone batteries and then open up their iPhone to swap them that often. I mean, some people don't even upgrade the batteries in their smoke/CO detectors every 6 months as suggested and those batteries are super cheap and power a device that will literally save their life. Also I have tried to replace a battery in an old iPhone, not my main phone and found out it is hard to do. I screwed up somehow because the Touch ID stopped working. This is why people go to the Genius bar or just give up and upgrade their phone anyway.

[@maek555]

@@uthmanbaksh3530 It’s 50€(60$) to change the battery in authorized resellers so I think that’s not a big price to pay for 2 more years of using your iPhone with genuine battery

[@ashishnagar]

Has Apple ever heard about software optimization? They can easily optimize their OS to demand less power from the battery if they want to. You don't have to defend every Apple decision. I own 4 Apple products but still don't get their actions sometimes, like removing charging brick from the package.

[@Mistygio]

Apple had a choice of making the iPhone more expensive or removing the brick. They chose the latter so that people won’t complain about Apple charging too much for an iPhone. And here you are complaining

[@thelazyrabbit4220]

"which is free if you have purchased apple care plus"-🤣🤣🤣 jokes like these

[@Food-is_Life]

Right? It's only free if Apple determines there is something wrong with your battery. I had Apple care plus on my 12 pro max and I felt battery degraded fast but they ran " their diagnostic" test on it and told me there's nothing wrong and that the battery is fine. 🤦🏻‍♂️😪

[@maxsilverstone8600]

Maybe instead of ‘your battery and hardware can’t meet the demands of newer operating systems’ it should be that newer operating systems don’t demand so much from your processor. I understand that technology progresses quickly, but it’s ridiculous that a processor made 3.5 years ago like the A12 Bionic would struggle to keep up with running iOS 15.

[@buizelmeme6288]

Laughs in A10 bionic, and 128GB storage

[@bemwy]

Unfortunately, Apple upgrades their chips heavily each year and chooses to create features that focus on those chips. The A12 Bionic CAN easily run those new features, it just requires the battery to not be degraded in the 80-85% range. Apple also doesn't want to dis-include those features for older phones, even if it means the slowdown exists for devices with a degraded battery.

They weren't "accused" of slowing down older phones. They did. They got sued. They lost.

Yeah, because if they didn't your device would heat up fast as hell. Maybe you should look into how hardware works, if it tries to put the processing power all at once like it's supposed to on a degraded battery old device, the device may even just break consuming all that power from a degraded battery. Fun fact! Replacing the battery in those older models, actually got rid of said slowdown! Wow!

[@mrslcom]

But a lot of the new features with the updates can’t be utilized on older iPhones so it shouldn’t be related to battery health.

[@uncletrick1]

You weren't paying attention. Battery health is only part of the reason a phone slows down. The new OS is written for recent processors. If you have an old processor, you're going to experience slow downs. This is essentially the same issue for all computers.

[@mrslcom]

I was referring only to the main point of the video which was battery health.

[@amarg1650]

This vid is stupid and incorrect and I worked at Apple fo 8 years. Because the devices should begin to struggle even on the same ios if the Battery degrades. Since it is a hardware related problem the new ”powerhunry ios” should only run the battery dry faster but not slow down performance. Why make an update available for older phones if its more ”power hungry/slowing down” in the first place? They want to sell. I lied, we all had to lie about it but we knew that the spftware was slowing down phones.

[@bemwy]

@@amarg1650 Your comment is stupid and incorrect and you are such a liar. If you were to work at Apple for 8 years, you would have a signed contract legally binding you against any claims against the company after leaving it. Also, the software was not slowing down phones. I had an iPhone 6s running iOS 15.2 and it was SLOW as hell. Until I replaced the battery. WHICH IS HARDWARE. Not to mention, there's no way you worked at apple when you misspelled the words: for, iOS, power-hungry, software, AND your grammar is not even functionally correct. Random capital letters in the middle of sentences, shortening the word video to vid, and in-fact, calling the video "stupid" shows not only that you have no etiquette, but it also shows that you're lying, psychologically. Not to mention, if you worked at Apple for 8 years, why are you here commenting on a KZbin video? You should be out relaxing and chilling at home, watching a movie with plenty of new technology with your huge employee discount, and you should probably also be working, or retired, since you have "Worked at Apple for 8 years" in your resume. + ratio + L bozo + cry about it

[@kirakira9906]

@@bemwy It's not like all people working at Apple become millionaires and don't need work ever again or even if they were millionaires it's not like millionaires can't use YT and comment lmao, what a fouled logic here. However I think he meant he worked in some Apple Store and madenit sound like he was an Apple engineer or something like that. In addition even if what he said doesn't make complete sense, it's still partially correct, why is Apple bragging so much about their OS support when most older iPhones (4+ years old) struggle to support latest updates? It's not just a matter of battery, they talk about OS support and then they say they roll out the updates only designed for latest SoCs, that's not really great OS support. If you can't provide a good experience to your order phones, don't support them at all. They sold iPhones with 16-32GB of storage till like 2016/2017 and they expect to still have space left to download the latest update, that's just plainly lying from Apple, nothing more than that.

One of my older iPhones is 1st gen SE, it is 5 years old from now on and it’s battery stuck at 87% of life. Recently I’ve upgraded both of my iPhones the 13 and 1st gen SE to the latest 15.4, so far so good for both of them 😸👍

After updating to iPadOS 15, my iPad 6th Gen felt slower, overheated so quickly and had worse battery life. So, I did a factory reset. After the factory reset, it became much faster and smoother. I tried performing a Browserbench Speedometer 2.0 and the score nearly doubled.

[@kirakira9906]

Yeah it's definitely suggested to perform a factory reset after OS update, mostly if the device is already some years old... I never do that, I'm on Android btw, and the phone takes awhile to fully take on latest updates, but I have so much stuff on my phone and that would be so annoying to perform factory reset every time.

@@c0d1ngclips25 That's only half true. They did loose a law case.

[@Slurkz]

@@c0d1ngclips25 Battery management is very complex, and becomes outright unpredictable when degradation of your battery starts to happen, especially in combination with the millions of totally different custom use(r) cases, as you are suggesting you would like to be possible. Apple simply can’t support all these scenarios. Literally: customer support would become extremely complex and expensive, just to cater the small amount of people that like to have a fine(r) level of control. On top of that; allowing for custom firmware and OS downgrades (in combination with ease of use) would effectively kill Apple's ability to keep its high level of security, privacy and long sustainability in check. Most people don’t think about this very often: but in essence; your phone holds your life. With that in mind I think one should look out for the ecosystem with the highest level of stability, privacy, security and ease of use. This ‘bundle’ can be very challenging and costly for tech companies to achieve & maintain. That’s what Apple excels at, and that’s what you pay for. (Although actually: if you play it smart, your TCO (Total Cost Of Ownership) within the Apple ecosystem can turn out to be significantly lower than the competition's.) But if you want a much higher level of control, while you know precisely what you’re doing, and you enjoy spending all the time it requires to stay safe and stable: maybe Apple is not your brand. For instance: A firmware flashed *FairPhone* could be a better option.

Diving deeper into this can cause some questions because voltage of a battery does decline over time but the processor works within a set parameter. Software updates could also remove strings of unnecessary code making it more lightweight and responsive. AI is a big question for reduced performance but it's rarely seen as a hinder since those applications don't run continuously. I'm not a Software engineer but do understand the basic fundamentals.

Don't upgrade your phone past 2 iOS of the original one your phone comes with. Phones are paid off in 2 years with most phone plans, and most people swap them out at the 2 year mark since they are "due for an upgrade". They slow down your phone to encourage this some more.

[@almuel]

My mom’s iPhone 6s is running on the latest version iOS. That’s 7 years of software support, I commend Apple on doing this. When we had her battery replaced it was pretty snappy like you said, although her battery levels have come down again but it’s still as snappy as my sister’s new Android phone and actually more reliable than that. I always knew that it was battery degradation and actually liked the fact that Apple slows down the phone if the battery has degraded badly, that way it won’t have a hard shutdown like other phones do when their battery is degraded. This was actually done in hopes that it would keep the phone running for longer with the same battery so Apple was actually trying to make the consumer retain the phone for longer not the other way around. Sadly they were accused for the opposite but in return we got more transparency for our battery health which is nice.

[@initialdluvr]

This is exactly right. I used to own many Androids before my iPhone 11 now. My Androids didn't have battery management so once my battery started degrading pretty bad, my phone would just crash, overheat, or shut off randomly and get in those nasty boot loops. Terrible. iPhones on the other hand gradually slows down while maintaining stability and reliability. I might replace my battery on my phone sometime this year. Should probably get another solid few years out of it.

Well new battery and updated my 7plus after a long time on a previous os and its glitchy and super slow. A few weeks like this now and its pissing me off.

[@wonderclips2161]

Why battery health is reducing onece we update ?

[@torribenear2204]

The same thing happend to my 4 year old gen 6 ipad when I software updated all my games lag

[@Luca-gb1og]

The only thing I notice is that the battery is getting worse way to fast on iphone or iPad. And that the battery percentage is messed up. While above 60 it's great but under 60 it runs out extremely fast

[@Iamextremelydisappointed]

When I exit out of the app and use another one, it seems normal until I resume on the other app that I was using previously using and it just restarts the app

[@converge-y3h]

You better explain vr and Apple glasses when they come out

[@hackileo]

It apple business mode lock same popular app to run on newer version off ios so u can buy new iphone

[@Giannis814]

@Apple Explained Can u make a video about why iPads don’t have wireless charging

[@mattslegochannel]

So when I plugged my iPhone 12 Pro Max in with magnet charger instead of green in the circle it showed whit?

[@yo-ma-ma5598]

My 7 slows down and heats up a lot when I update, one ice cream and phone restart later and it's fine again. And kept getting better and better each update.

[@jrlgamingyt3444]

I have a second generation iPhone SE and it has run perfectly fine after updating it to IOS 15. Most likely because the battery was at 92% battery health and which didn't put any stress on the device

[@vimini5378]

Mine’s at 85% and it is still snappy

Can someone explain why camera photos takes so long to show up on photos app and any app using pictures? So frustrating if you need to send an email or message of a photo very quickly. 🙏

1:50 Battery replacements actually are not free with AppleCare+. They’re only free if the battery is faulty, not if they just degrade over time. I bought AppleCare+ with my 11 Pro Max back in 2019, and went to get a new battery in October 2021 because my AppleCare+ was about to expire and thought it would be free… I was denied because my battery wasn’t faulty, it had simply degraded.

[@ashleeleemon]

I’m still on an iPhone 7. No lag .Never changed the the battery.

[@kdm313]

Wow thx’s I didn’t know Apple Care plus you let you get a free battery. Cool

[@Supersheep.]

But the thing is, I have an iPad 8, when iOS 15 came out, the iPad 9 wasn’t out (I believe). I don’t know what to think.

[@Galkan]

"Which is free if you purchased AppleCare+" so it's not free. Because you paid for it. Same applies to "free with PS+" or "free with Game Pass" etc., stop considering paid elements free.

[@BenM388]

I have an Iphone 12, running the latest IOS and i notice it being laggy and unresponsive to my tough on screen sometimes, and the battery on this phone is at 89% max capacity

[@pummelman3588]

My iphone 6s+ still running ios13.7 im not sure if its good idea to update to ios15.4

[@cocojambo-slowedreverb9835]

My 6s which is around 7 years old has the latest ios 15.4 and still works pretty fine

[@mark_and_stuff]

Tell me the music

[@hanskutube]

What about ipads…. How do you check the capacity ?

[@abdulrazaqyahaya8025]

i have the 11 pro max and its still on the ios 14 series and im not gonna upgrade it cause its still fundamentally the same interface

[@endercatte5790]

That's why android has an upgrade limit to the os when it comes to upgrading

[@monyhoran2274]

I have an iPhone 11 and it’s at 91%, is it gonna be ok if I upgrade to iOS 15??

[@husseineltarras7526]

actually i have an iphone 13 and even though it doesnt lag i have found alot of glitches with the swipe up gesture within a few weeks

[@mrslasher257]

I was going to get iPhone 📱 7 but is it going to be slow because it is uesed so is it going to be slow

[@HarrisonGray]

I know this is entirely unrelated to this video, but do you think you'll be playing any Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on your gaming channel once the new DLC arrives? :)

[@johnnythemuslim8197]

Why face id not work when rotating the screen?

[@dannywilson8370]

Love your videos it’s amazing 🤩

[@Flux799]

I have an iPad mini 4 that I maybe used 3 times total. After updating it to the latest it’s basically useless now.

[@jahidsarkar3768]

I want you to make a video on the $999 iMac stand...I bet that's something you just can't find anything to support the price

[@fynn.8]

But why are the software updates never load fully ?? See that the loading bar never gets full ??

[@younesderraz6692]

isn't newer os supposed to be more efficient?

[@zephyru5426]

My dad has an iphone 5s for almost a decade now and it still works which is just amazing

[@dishantmalhotra9818]

Why apple doesn’t make official cases for airpods line up ??

[@magiclab5027]
