Why does my iPhone stop live streaming after a few minutes?

I have an iPhone 14, iOS 18.1.1. It stops during live streaming repeatedly after a few minutes. It stopped during voice memo recording after 7 minutes, too. I have plenty of iCloud storage, plenty of battery. What is wrong?

Streaming issues with iPhone 15 Pro When streaming, I am having dropped sound and static on my iPhone 15 Pro. Have spent hours in Apple this last weekend. Eventually was replaced and still have the same issue on the new one. No issues on other devices including iPad Pro and other iPhones. Am on latest software. Have contacted Tim Cook directly as this is a serious issue with the iPhone 15 Pro model.

How can I fix audio cutting out on iPhone while streaming video? I keep having an issue with the audio cutting out briefly every few seconds when I’m streaming videos on my phone. I’ve tried restarting my phone multiple times and cleaning up my storage (now have >3GB free space) and it hasn’t fixed the problem. It’s happening on YouTube when streaming in different browsers, and on video streaming apps. This seems to happen after I take photos of books I’m reading to highlight text. I thought it was a storage issue as that’s what’s fixed it in the past, but I have lots of free space. My phone in general is slow. When I listen to podcasts it takes several seconds after hitting pause/play to get a response. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

iPhone video streaming problem I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max, latest iOS, and any video stream from any source constantly stops playing and then starts again after a while, sometimes. I can manually restart it and it goes until it stops again after a few seconds. Restarting the iPhone doesn't make any difference. My iPad works fine with the same videos so it isn't wifi as I use cellular service mostly. No difference on wifi. This was working fine until one of the last iOS updates. Any solution besides waiting for an iOS fix??

An incoming call, alarm, or app notification might have interrupted the recording.

Fix:

Put your iPhone in Airplane Mode before recording.
Go to Settings → Focus → Enable Do Not Disturb while recording.
