hello,

this Bug is well known in gamers community . All users ( also profesional competetive players ) of 13 Pro, 13 Pro Max , 14 Pro , 14 Pro Max in game like PUBG Mobile have fps drops when they switch on 90 fps in game while playing in guided access mode on. Without guided access it is much better , but not stable. PUBG Mobile game developers say on official Discord that it is problem on Apple’s side. Problem appears also in other games such as cod Mobile. Problem is for sure on all 13 pro/Max and 14 pro/Max models in 90 fps mode while you play on guided access on mode - fps drop to like around 40. Please fix it, if neccesary i Can provide more information.

Hey jericho194,


Have you checked your settings to make sure "Limit Frame Rate" isn't turned on? Customize iPhone for motion sensitivities - Apple Support


1. Go to Settings  > Accessibility > Motion.
2. Turn on or off any of the following controls:

Reduce Motion: Reduces the motion of the user interface, including the parallax effect of icons.
Auto-Play Message Effects: Allows the Messages app to automatically play full-screen effects. If you turn this setting off, you can still manually play effects by tapping Replay below the message bubble.
Auto-Play Video Previews: Allows apps such as the App Store to automatically play video previews.
Limit Frame Rate: Limits the maximum frame rate of the display to 60 frames per second (on models with ProMotion display technology).


If that's not the case, let us know more to help:


  • Do you notice this only happens with the two apps you mentioned, or other apps too?
  • Which exact software version shows in Settings > General > About?


Take care!
