iOS 17.1.1 Update Issues

Updating my iPhone 14 Pro to the latest software iteration 2 days ago has caused serious problems when attempting to airplay a number of apps on my HomePods. The transfer was automatic and flawless until the iOS update was installed. Now it makes me jump through hoops to get it done. Turning apps on and off sometimes works. HomePodss are updated, and there are no issues with WiFi or network.

Everything was working fine to the best of my knowledge before the software update automatically installed overnight. When I opened the iPhone in the morning is when I discovered certain apps would not air play to HomePod. A bug was apparently unleashed with the latest software iteration.

Updating iOS on your iPhone should typically not alter the fundamental functionality of the device. It's possible that there were underlying issues before this update, which you might not have been aware of previously or might not have noticed.


In general, iOS updates are designed to enhance the user experience, improve security, and fix bugs, rather than introducing major disruptions to core features. The reported issue of the screen flickering and displaying a white screen after an update is likely caused by factors that are not explicitly mentioned in your post.


iOS updates primarily focus on improving system performance, introducing new features, fixing bugs, and enhancing security. They are designed to preserve your personal data, settings, and information intact.


During an iOS update, your device's operating system is upgraded, but your personal data, such as contacts, photos, messages, and other information, should remain unchanged. However, it's always a good practice to perform a backup of your device before any major update to ensure that your data is safely stored.


It's important to note that while an iOS update itself should not alter personal details, it's possible that certain features or settings may be adjusted or improved with the update. In such cases, you may need to review and adjust specific settings to match your preferences after the update.


Always make sure to read and understand the update details provided by Apple before proceeding with an iOS update, and follow best practices such as backing up your device to minimize any potential risks or complications.

Hello, I’ve only been an IOS iPhone user for around 3yrs. The updates thus far have been very good and pretty flawless, but for whatever reason, I have had nothing but problems/issues ever since I forgot I had it set to automatically update. Now, after the 17.1.1 iOS update every time my phone dies or I restart it, all of my settings revert back to the opposite of what I originally set them too. The phone will randomly flutter or have a “double” screen look like one screen is copied over the other. This is very frustrating yet ik is my fault bc I had it on automatic updates. Butt still c’mon now, it’s like an entirely different phone I feel like and it looks like someone all the sudden takes control of it at the most random moments or when I’m deliberately trying to change a setting. Does anyone else have any of these issues?????
