[@BerkayTUNALI]

I switched from Android to iOS for the sake of better software stability 5 years ago but now I feel like I should go back to Android. iOS 18 has really ruined the user experience with lags and battery drains on my 14 PM.

I feel the same. The reason I switched to iPhone was for that UI smoothness. This update slowed everything down. Super jittery which never happened before.

@ Heavy users have bugs they encounter. For example, try editing a picture in the photos app. Then, try copying and pasting the edits onto other pictures… you’ll see that some of those edits don’t transfer over. It’s been a terrible bug in iOS for ages.

[@ericschwartz100]

Maybe it’s just me-but my 15 pro with 18.3 RC battery sucks. Siri usage per charge is that between 37 to 50% battery drainage per charge. I have Apple Intelligence disabled, and I have no idea what’s going on 😵‍💫 🤷 Very frustrating if you can believe it.

The major bug I have that has been going since I updated to iOS 18, everytime I connect via Bluetooth to my car, the audio glitches within the first couple mins when connected. This happens maybe three out of fives times.

My wife's iPhone 15 pro is having the same issue you're having with bluetooth glitch. Ever since she updated to iOS 18 it's done this annoying skip when playing music in her car. I've tried hard resetting the phone and also did a complete factory reset of the phone and still doesn't fix it. We finally found a fix. Done with apple and upgraded to a Pixel 9 Pro XL lol. Phone is amazing

[@gorgeousguitars4151]

Yes this has been reported as a common problem by a variety of drivers of different makes and models of car. They are all blaming Apple/iOS, not the car manufacturers. Aside from the fact that iOS 18 has completely screwed up many users' music libraries, it is a real shame that a company the size of Apple can't be bothered to sort out these serious issues. Advice: please send bug reports via Apple Feedback (you can Google it to get to the correct page) - they will take notice only via Feedback, if enough people complain about it.

Honestly not impressed with battery life on newer iPhones, my 13 Pro Max 1TB has been holding on nicely, better screen on time. 85% battery health.

[@killswitch7260]

13 pro max still holds the record for longest iPhone battery…14 pro max, 15 pro max, and 16 pro max don’t come close…when it was out it lasted a hour longer then the current flagship galaxy at that time (i think it lasted like 13 hours) according to a bunch of battery test videos on yt…it was also my phone before i got the 16 pro max (i jailbroke it and kept it on iOS 15)…tho my 16 pro max still gets through my day with 30% left by the time i go to sleep (and that’s with 7 hours of screen on time for that day)…so that just tells u that there’s nothing wrong with the battery, it’s that the iOS is getting more power hungry every time u update.

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to experience the Galaxy S25 Ultra at the Samsung Store and explore its Gemini AI features. It seems that Samsung has delivered on what Apple promised for AI at WWDC. I also considered the respect that Samsung shows to the world by allowing the use of Gemini in different languages, while Apple supports only English. Unfortunately, I can see that Apple is quite behind in the field of AI. Their integration with ChatGPT is, in fact, the worst I have ever seen. In addition, I can see that Apple Intelligence was done for marketing purposes, not for user experience. This iteration is still useless, like previous "Just Siri" iteration as it doesn't allow you to communicate with AI Assistant/Agent in natural manner.

I got a new iPhone 16 in the EU, and my experience with iOS is quite good. Battery lasts 8 hours of usage very easily, and lasts me 2-3 days with my regular use. (I don’t game a lot on my phone, but use discord a lot, for example). Issues I found: - Sometimes apps stutter (very rare tho) - I’ve had to lock&unlock my iPhone again sometimes because the screen dimmed for no reason. - Calls on a Mac are a hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes the call doesn’t ring on my Mac. I think this is a macOS issue, not iOS, but I don’t know.

[@ehtrude]

I check for background app usage very often, and I have almost none happening, so that could explain why battery lasts so long. I have about 50 apps installed.

[@CycloneCleaver]

In iOS 18.2.1 there is a bug where you no longer get notifications when some of your friends complete a training. Also you can not see any data of them. You are still sharing with then, but nothing comes through, like they are not wearing their watch for days. I had that with some friends, and they say they have the same problem. Also Bluetooth is not great. I have wireless CarPlay for a year now, and it works great. But now, when I get in my car, it will connect instantly, but I have no sound. Sometimes a hard reboot will fix that, but I haven’t been able to get it back for a week now. This happened 3 times now when I get where I need to be, stop the car, and get back in it within 15 minute or so. Then it will start up without sound. Again a hard reboot did solve this, but now it won’t come back. Leaving me with a perfect working CarPlay, but without sound. Also connecting only via Bluetooth for just music won’t work in my car. I really hope 18.3 gets it back. This is really annoying. Overall I was perfectly happy with my 14 pro max, but the last update really was the worsts for me. I never had so much bugs that had really an impact on how I use my device. Fingers crossed!
