iOS 18 bugs on iPhone 15 Pro

In iOS 18, I’ve noticed several bugs. When the Action Button is set to “Do Not Disturb,” animations across the system become very laggy. Spotlight also lags noticeably when invoked. When the phone is locked and I tap the screen to wake it, there’s a delay of about 3 seconds before the screen turns on. Additionally, in Settings, when navigating to “Accessibility” and then “Apple Intelligence,” the text in the top-right corner changes from “Settings” to “Back” with visible stutter and glitching. I can even provide a video if needed to demonstrate these issues. Also, when typing, I don’t know why, but autocorrect suggestions sometimes appear in the top-right corner of the screen instead of where they usually do. Sometimes, when I open the Notification Center, the wallpaper becomes completely transparent for a moment.

You are using your iPhone in Low Power Mode, which often causes things to work differently and stops some things from working completely. Charge your phone and turn off Low Power Mode in Settings > Battery.

Very difficult for us, who are users only on this user to user only forum to diagnose what you're seeing. Try a Forced Restart --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support

If this doesn't work, this is the time I'd typically recommend a visit to your Apple Store Genius Bar, but if you're in Russia, that's not an option as there is no official support from Apple in Russia.

The next steps are either restore the phone as new and start over, or backup the phone, then restore the phone from backup.

This link will explain how to backup, then restore from backup and using your computer would be the best option as it will install a new version of iOS on your iPhone --> Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
