Potential issues with iOS 26 update

While watching movies on SharePlay the audio does not route to my Bluetooth headphones after iOS 26 update. I’ve troubleshoot and noticed that my headphones are connected and will show as connected while watching the movie, but no audio until my partner ends call.

iPhone 13

iPhone 17 pro max. My notification bar when locked and sometimes via the quick access drop down will be shifted about an inch to the left, making it hard to read notifications as i miss the beginning of them.

IOS26 iphone issues. after updating if I am editing a long text message or any text that is long I can no longer see the cursor at the top of the screen when the keyboard appears

the cursor will stay were you place it however the screen is positioned at the bottom so you can not see where the cursor is located

so I can no longer edit long text messages or any text without having to scroll up when the keyboard appears

even when the keyboard appears I am automatically taken down to the end / bottom of the text message or text meaning I can not see what I am editing at the top of the text message or any text

this occurs in all apps

never had the issue in previous IOS versions

Am i the only who experience the keyboard of ios26 always making typo or wrong output on whatsapp/imessage ? and not agile like other ios? also, when i type "jam" the output shows "ja," tried to edit, but the editing version is already correct with "jam" then i close the editable pop up, but it still shows "ja," It happend a lot especially on whatsapp, im super tired. next time before send to public, use apple's employee as a user, dont let people experienced the bad things like those thing!!! Apple play with us.

since I upgraded my iPhone 15 pro to iOS 26, I must say I have been really disappointed, my iPhone cinematic camera mode experience became buggy and laggy along with other user interface laggy experiences… it’s really sad Apple has to destroy our previous iPhones by rolling out buggy iOS so we can go purchase the iPhone 17 😡😡😡

Since I downloaded iOS 26 my wireless charging doesn’t work, and when plugged in the phone will randomly say there is water in the charge port. Have to restart the phone to charge it with a cable. Started happening the next day after update. Should have never updated. 16 Pro Max. Never been in water, dropped etc.

Then I suggest that you do like I did and provide feedback to Apple about the problem. Use this link. Product Feedback - Apple

I updated my iPad Pro 11 M2 to iOS 26 without issues as well. I always do a Force Restart after doing a major iOS update and my only issue has been at times the Calendar when opened when Week is selected, it will still appear as Month. It seems to have corrected itself today, so no issues.

Just updated to iOS26 yesterday night. When I’m on the home screen and I try to swipe through the windows, it just randomly restarts. Sometimes it doesn’t restart completely, sometimes it completely shuts down. Basically I can’t look for apps manually because of this but only by writing them on the search bar. Please fix this.

I do not use haptics except on silent so I noticed that my phone had silenced post-update immediately. I know you said your case muted the phone, but my case isn’t anywhere near the buttons. I still flipped it off and on just to be sure but it was still vibrating. I assumed it was something new but after an unsuccessful tour of the settings, I gave up. About an hour after the update, I turned the ringer off and then on again…then it worked. What I am not seeing is reports of the phone sleeping right away. My battery charge is fine, and I checked my settings to see if I was in low battery mode. Nope. Suuuuper buggy.

A Force Restart did not fix this issue - the Calendar app always opens in the Month view even though the last time I used it was in the Week view. I have an iPad Pro 11” 3rd gen. My wife has the same issue with her iPad Air 2nd generation.

When i scroll down for search at the main screen the search appears, and at the right side of the screen there are some strange pixels appearing and moving when i rotate the phone in my hand

iPad Pro 4th gen. Updated to iOS 26 with no issue. Restores backup and then reboots and stalls at an Apple logo. Tried 5 times. Tried and older backup. Can’t do it. iPhone 14 worked albeit it stalled a few times. Working decently now.

Unfortunately this isn’t seeming to work for several iPhones that have updated. Over a dozen time across multiple days and have gone through the process online to activate my account. Still get the error, and haven’t heard anything back from Apple.

going to make the hour drive to the closest Apple Store tomorrow to see if they can help.

After updating to iOS26 I noticed a problem with instagram DMs. When i click the media icon to send a photo in-chat, it no longer gives me the option to browse through my albums, it just shows the recents. I tried updating the Instagram app, but it did not solve my problem.

I came here first as I couldn’t find any information about this with iOS or IG on google.

Anyone else with this problem, or a solution?
