I have multiple issues on my iPhone 13 after the iOS 18 update
After working flawlessly for a year, my iPhone 13 got iOS 18 and the update messed it up completely.
It’s significantly slower than before: I’m a Voiceover user, and now it’s so frustrating to use because it has too many glitches, like speech cutting out, random and slight popping sounds, and the cursor randomly jumps to top without me doing anything.
Battery: the battery capacity went down from 99% to 97% in just a week since iOS 18 was installed. It used to last more than a day with moderate use, but now I need to charge it at night because I’m afraid my alarm won’t ring. It also gets warm with minimum use.
Siri: Siri doesn’t speak most of the time, all I get are visual and written responses, but no audio. Selecting the preferred spoken responses option in the Siri settings doesn’t solve the problem. With iOS 17, Siri always gave me spoken responses, but not anymore. Aside from that, answers me with an error if I haven’t ask her anything from a long time.
Other issues: Safari takes ages to load any page, Apple Music stops playing in the middle of songs, the notes app sometimes crashes out of the blue and Spoken conten feature is very glitchy, now changes languages and pronounces everything wrong, even if all the text is in Spanish, my native language.
I’ve tried every type of reset you can imagine, from a simple restart, network resets, resetting all settings, to factory resets, restoring via iTunes and set everything up as new, but all to no avail; I mean, the problems just persist no matter how many troubleshooting steps I’ve taken, oh and no help at all from Tech support.
Seriously! What’s going on? I’m very frustrated, wondering why things can’t just work fine.
Any ideas?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
