Apps crashing after iOS 18 update on iPhone

Did “everything” include this - Do you use VPN? If so, delete the VPN profile in Settings/General/VPN & Device Management/VPN. Don't just turn it off; delete the profile. If that fixes it, you can try reinstalling VPN.

OK, if a restart doesn't work, the next step:

Do you use VPN? If so, delete the VPN profile in Settings/General/VPN & Device Management/VPN. Don't just turn it off; delete the profile.

After that, reset network settings:

• Open Settings
  • Tap General
  • Tap Transfer or Reset Phone
  • Tap  Reset
  • Tap Reset Network Settings

• • This will erase all Wi-Fi passwords, but will not result in any other data loss.

What apps, specifically? And have you taken umang129’s advice and force-restarted your iPhone?

• Press and quickly release VOLUME UP

     then

• Press and quickly release VOLUME DOWN

     then

• Hold the SIDE button until an Apple logo appears (15-30 seconds), ignoring "slide to power off" if it appears

The operative word here is QUICKLY; and try it a couple of times, the timing is a little tricky. If done correctly this will always work. 

Force restart your device.

O’ve updated to iOS 18.0.1 and that seems to have fixed it.

Did you also delete the VPN PROFILE in Settings/General/VPN & Device Management/VPN?

Tap Settings

Tap General

Tap VPN & Device Management

Tap VPN

Do you see ANYTHING there? It should be empty, other than “Add VPN Configuration…"

I have the same problem as OP, and this didn’t fix. I have an iPhone 11.

So fed up with this IOS 18 Updates. My Carrier COR Smart Home Thermostat App crashes every time I try to connect after having done everything here they say to do.

I deleted the entire VPN App. No help.

There is no Link there in Device Management VON to delete Profile. iPhone 11Pro Max. Only turn on or off.
