iOS 17 vs iOS 16 Stability and Bugs

[@InsighterofTech]

I feel like iPhones and iOS in general have been putting performance and features over stability and battery life. iOS 15 had a balance of that

[@Sjsharksfan88]

I'm hearing a lot of people talk about what to expect for Apple this year, and I think the thing I want the most is the notification center being improved. I still think it's a mess, and there are times when I feel like I'm missing notifications. Go back to starting them at the top, and give us the app logo saying there are notifications or something. Yeah it's like Android, but unless you have a better idea, it's a lot more organized.

[@tomato9953]

100% agree. Android handles notification so much better. Since I made the switch to apple with the iPhone 12 I always miss some notifications.

[@nad0b0lS]

Same. I’m still on iOS 16 with no plans of updating to 17. My iPhone 13 was super fast and the battery could last two days easily on iOS 15. Now animations are choppy, battery lasts only a day, multitasking refreshes apps, I lost all the wallpapers and have to use shortcuts for light/dark mode. I hate what Apple has been doing lately with software updates.

[@Zeon32o]

Aaron I’ve been a iOS user since the very beginning - I couldn’t agree more with your sentiment. iOS to me is a mess, year after year Apple promises stability but constantly fails in its attempts to provide a decent software experience when compared to other OS which as you know used to be the other way around .

[@pickleshanks]

I feel like iOS peaked at 12; dipped significantly with 13, due to so many bugs; gained back more ground with 14 & 15, but just never quite recovered. I hated every iOS version before 12, when it became much more usable for someone who’s always preferred Android but was forced to use iPhone more often than not due to personal reasons.

[@mattjamesss1]

Honestly do hope there is stability amd all that in iOS 18 at this point everything technology today is lacking stability at this point and need to slow down and don’t rush things out if it’s not stable!

[@ericschwartz100]

I hope there isn’t just stability , but an improved UI for control center, keyboard etc.

I’M FINALLY VINDICATED WITH MY BLUETOOTH ISSUES! Ever since 16.3.1c, or one of the security updates around that time, every single Bluetooth audio device I’ve used has had frequent cutouts and occasional full disconnects requiring repairing, but I could find nothing about it online! I felt like I was the *only* one with the issue, so thank you for giving me this sanity check!

[@hasangunes21005]

Both iOS 16 and 17 suck. Stability became very bad after widgets and wallpapers update. i miss old ios versions too much. Stuttering in every app not matter if its stock app or third party. Only safari and telegram runs buttery smooth. Apps not ready for 120hz display. Bad thing is only people with good eyes can see these stuttering and fps drop issues.. And some people thinking its normal. But old ios versions were buttery smooth. (iPhone 14 Pro / iOS 17.2.1)

[@KieranBLK]

OMG. You can see the stuttering and lag with scrolling and animations too? It’s beyond annoying that most people’s eyes can’t pick up on it or they just ignore it. It’s even present on ProMotion devices. It’s a core iOS issue that’s exaggerated on a 3rd party app level, mainly cross platform code base apps. So far Spotify, Telegram, and WhatsApp are the only native apps that seem to not be affected by this issue which is odd because even native apple apps have it. Been experiencing this since iOS 14 the 3 iPhones I’ve had since and when I contacted Apple support about it 2 years ago they claimed it was under investigation and it still has yet to be resolved.

[@hasangunes21005]

[@mrnobodymobile]

What's crazy is that Android also allows you to do more customizability with internal software systems and how things look and it manages to do this while being smooth! iOS locks most of these features and still struggling 😕

[@CM-ct7xj]

I have watched you for years. Thank you!!!!! Have 15 pro max now from 12 pro max. The problem I keep having is 90% of the time that I come into contact with my WiFi I have to flip on airplane mode & back to get more than 1 bar. I’m running iOS 17.2.1 & my carrier is Verizon. Don’t know where the issue is. Just frustrating Thank you for all your information 👍🏻

[@KieranBLK]

My major issue with iOS that I simply can’t put into words how much it hurts to have to put up with it everyday is all the stuttering and lag with scrolling and animations. I can let the bugs and glitches slip by to a certain degree but performance and efficiency is where I draw my line. I simply cannot tolerate it. My iPhone 11 is perfectly capable of smoothly scrolling and animating UI elements it’s a very simply task handle in hindsight of everything else nowadays. Then there’s the battery life. I recently replaced my battery and it’s barely improved anything if nothing at all, it can hardly get me through the day with my light usage of just scrolling through twitter, steaming YT videos, and a bit of browsing, I have to end up using my battery case at 8th period of the school day. I’ll also add that a lot of features on my phone are disabled, such as Siri (Completely), location services and I even have to result to having airplane mode on when I’m on Wi-Fi to help and even then I’m still only getting about 3-4 hours SOT tops.

[@borisaleksandrov1587]

My biggest issue with ios 17 since release mind you (currently running 17.3 beta) is the horrible notification delivery bug. No matter if my phone is on vibrate or if I have sound on it fails to notify me of most notifications or phone calls. Sometimes it won’t ring or play the notification sounds other times it won’t vibrate it’s just a horrible mess. Compared to IOS 16 where I had constant overheating issues on every single release l’ve just hated using my phone for the past 1.5 years. I’m using a 13 pro max and it ran amazing on iOS 15 but ever since then it’s been a horrible experience and considering the lack of features compared to android I’m seriously beginning to consider switching.

[@sheeeessh]

Same here, iOS 15 ran flawlessly on my 13 mini. iOS 16 introduced overheating issues, even until now on iOS 17 this still persists. iOS 17, I have issues with alarms not going off, notifications being way too delayed, background apps just in general not refreshing as they should. iOS 18 better focus on stability, heck, my 4 year-old android delivers notifications faster, this really shouldn't be a thing.

[@borisaleksandrov1587]

@@sheeeessh I couldn’t agree more, lucky my alarms still work (knock on wood) as for background app refresh not working correctly I suspect that’s why notifications aren’t working right

[@garyclark6747]

I assumed the 16/17 woes were from the all hands on deck upset with the mandatory port change. Maybe it didn’t have to be difficult but Apple sure did enhance the Pro features like mounting SSD directly along with the 15’s camera pixel upgrade. Now with potential upcoming side load app sandboxing their stability will be tested even more and needs to moved to priority one over any new feature addition. Great perspective shared. Thanks 11:43

[@paulmaric2965]

Handy video Aaron! I started using the iphone in the midst of ios 12. As far as features since then, it's been great, since I don't use the advanced features and only a few Apple apps. Yes, I've had the odd bug as of late (one that Apple just doesn't think is important enough to fix). The stability and battery life since I started at least in my opinion hasn't changed much and really needs to get better.

[@LeoFriedman06]

I miss the days of when Johnny Ive was still at Apple I feel like iOS would be so much different now and I miss the stability of iOS 9. Apple needs to hold off on major features until they get these bugs worked out. This just doesn’t seem like the Apple we used to know.

[@hlm601]

I was with android for over 10 years and then moved to iPhone having become fed up of fragmentation and inconsistency in the platform. While I have had a few bugs with my iPhone I would say nowhere near as bad as those I experienced with Android. The main issues that I tend to have relate to copying data between iPhone and Mac and general issues with continuity but these have been few and fixed by usually a restart. But these are features I never had on Android. I started on an iPhone 12 and moved up to a 14 Pro and I have been very happy it’s a far better experience than any I have had with Android, with my last two Android phones being a Note 10 Plus and then a OnePlus 9 Pro so not like I have come from cheap Android phones.

Hi Aaron, I enjoy your videos. I've seen you mention this notification bug quite a bit, but I've not been able to either recreate the issue, or maybe I'm just not really understanding the issue. I get my notifications just fine, both the banners and in the notification center. When I swipe up on the lock screen, I can scroll through my notifications just fine. When you mention it, you tend to jump back out from the lock screen so quickly, I don't really understand what the issue you're seeing is, as opposed to what you're expecting to see. Any change you could either do a full explanation, or point me to a previous vide where you have explained it fully? Thanks! I also don't think I'm experiencing the screen dimming issue, but I use a pretty dark wallpaper, so that might be why I don't notice it.

[@cavvvyr7021]

It’s just it freezes the notifications bar and as the notifications appear they pop in one by one in a slow manner I’ve had it happen to me a few times I find it hard to replicate on my 14 pro max I always seem to swipe up and just unlock the phone instead of bringing up notifications

One thing I noticed is during the year I used iOS 16 on my 14 Pro Max the battery health degraded fairly quickly and was down to 88% by the time iOS 17 launched. But since my phone has been on iOS 17 I have had zero battery health degradation. Still at 88% after being on iOS 17 four months.

[@mr.x408]

That's how iphone is, even if you stayed on iOS 16, battery would still be around 88%. My 13 pro max down to 87% quickly from more than 95% after a year, it's still on 16, and a couple of month later, battery is still 87%.

[@tomato9953]

I believe iOS has become monotonous. It remains unchanged, and new features quickly become boring. It feels like having the same reheated soup every time. The app landscape is also dull, with Apple imposing numerous restrictions, resulting in a lack of diversity. Unlike Android, where apps have more control and open up possibilities, including customization. If iOS 18 doesn't bring significant changes, I think I'll switch to Android.

Android has its issues too, but I think it depends where you live. In the USA its pretty difficult to go from iMessage to anything else.

i started using ios with ios 12. ios 12-14 were the most stable i’ve seen ios in a long time, even on older devices. even ios 15 was more stable than it is now. ios 16 was complete garbage, and ios 17 is better but not where it should be. it’s almost like apple released these updates without the hardware processing power needed to run them to their fullest potential. i hope they fix this soon, ios 17.2.1 is fairly stable for me running an iphone 14, but there are still little things here and there that needs to be fixed.

Notifications have been irritating ever since the Big Sur redesign. Features I had in Catalina were removed in macOS Big Sur/iOS 14 and later updates. No longer can I see how many notifications are in a stack (quite useful for emails and iMessages). No more can I quick complete a reminder. I gotta make extra clicks to complete a reminder from a notification now. No longer can I quick reply to an iMessage from a notification. The clunky dropdown is inefficient on macOS and missing notifications is more common than it used to be. It is easier to look at the app icon than notification center for texts and phone calls. occasionally I look into ways to bring back the Catalina features but find no solutions. Super annoying.

Well Aaron, Apple can always fix issues and make things better, the question should be, would they? And also, something that people would overlook unless you rely on accessibility features, if you are dealing with let's say, inconsistent brightness, or pictures not looking as beautiful as they should, those, while no denying are annoying problems, are not a deal breaker. If you are relying on something like VoiceOver like myself, and it's either not working well, or worst case scenario, stop working completely, that could mean no phone for me in the case of the latter. In short, Apple needs to wake up and be a respectable company that they should be recognised as and we customers deserve way more than what we got with the "PREMIUM" price we pay them for.

[@avenged110]

Definitely sticking with iOS 15 here. The only redesign I ever hope for is movement in the direction of iOS 6, hah.

Love the device, the ease of use, the ecosystem really hooks you in, but most of the improvements, aside lock screen customization, and widget improvements (both still behind Android), are meaningless, IMO. Oh not forgeting features available only on US, leaving EU users at bay, or features only available on the most recent models, features that can be SW available, like de 80% max charge.
