Do you have this problem when you change the icons’ locations in the Home Screen but when you download a new app and want to drag it somewhere once you move it all the other icons go back at top again? Just like the way they were set before the new IOS 18 update. And how to fix that? It’s becoming really annoying.

It's not always the iOS update's fault! Many things can cause phone problems. If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.
Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!
iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.
Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.
Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.

Hi,
I really don’t know, I got this device brand new on the 1st of January this year, and it already came with the iOS 18.0 preinstalled. So I used it for a few days before updating to 18.2 (which was already there). But I had this issue even before updating, so I thought the new update is gonna fix it but it didn’t. I don’t have any of my data transferred from my previous iPhone, I’m just using this phone as brand new. I did check the settings a bit but I’m not sure what should I do or where should I be looking. But yeah every time I rearrange the icons, once a new app is downloaded, I try to drag it elsewhere, but all of the other icon apps move as well to the top of Home Screen, again.
Home screen icons reset to top after rearrangement in iOS 18.2.1
