How do I fix lag, overheating, and storage issues after upgrading to iOS 18.5?

Since 17th May since upgrading from ios 18.4.3 to 18.5, i get some lag typing and delay touching apps and buttons. The phone overheats and not used half my storage.

Perhaps a long shot:


Do you have a 3rd party VPN installed, even if you are not using it? 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.
