has calmed down a bit.
I just moved to an iphone 8 plus because 11 basically wrecked my OG 6.
And this is why Apple doesn't care that your older device runs like crap on the new version of iOS.

Im on a 6+ and Ive been getting constant freezes. Sucks because I generally like the update.

Im using iPhone 📱 5S and Im really surprised at this thread because Ive yet to experience any glitches, freezes or locks.I think I have to agree, the meeting I was at yesterday. It had like 5 iPhone users, one of which a HUGE Apple fan. Constantly cursing and even the Apple fan called it "worst update ever!". It seems that there are some major issues with this release and that it should have stayed a bit longer in Beta.
Yeah 6s here. It hard locks no less than once a day, requiring a reboot. Apps hang constantly, the wifi toggle is endlessly frustrating, scrolling across the home screens is jerky, etc. I've been a big fan of iOS since switching from Android but this update really fucking shit the bed.
Edit: one thing that really pisses me off is that randomly the music player widget just stops working. Can't change volume, skip tracks, etc. Can't adjust any music until actually opening the music app itself.
Ever since I got iOS11, one part of my screen has been unresponsive to touch. Its driving me crazy. It definitely wasnt there before.
I've noticed my 6S Plus randomly drain much faster now after the update. Thinking of doing a factory reset, hopefully it helps. I've also had the keyboard refusing to come up, so I have to completely close the app I'm using to get it to come up again.
Just had this randomly happen to me:
Apple have really shat the bed with this update.

I went into battery usage to see what was up and the update changed my email to automatically update instead of fetch when I opened the app. This was taking 50% of my usage.
I changed it but I'm still having battery issues. I've had to go into low power mode nearly every evening since I updated, and last night my phone finally died at the end of the day. This literally has never happened in nearly two years of using the phone the same practically every day.
The Podcasts app is now a POS
ios 11.0.3 is out and includes bug fixes for your iPhone or iPad.
This update:
- Fixes an issue where audio and haptic feedback would not work on some iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus devices
- Addresses an issue where touch input was unresponsive on some iPhone 6s displays because they were not services with genuine Apple parts
Note: Non-genuine replacement displays may have compromised visual quality and may fail to work correctly. Apple-certified screen repairs are performed by trusted experts who use Apple parts. See support.apple.com for more information.
- Fixes an issue where audio and haptic feedback would not work on some iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus devices
battery usage should still tell you what is using up the battery.
this is what I'm not understanding. Everyone saying "my battery is dying".. There is a page telling you exactly what app, system or third party, is using up your battery.
iOS 11 is the worst thing I've ever experienced being an iPhone and iPad owner for years.

music player in the control center still doesn't recognize when other apps other than apple music is playing audio...sigh
On a 6 here. It's ok so far? They murdered the podcast app in cold god damn blood though. Jesus.
What did they do with the Podcast app? Remove it completely? When I had an iPhone, it was my most used app.
The user interface is god awful. I've stopped listening to podcasts due to it.
You can alleviate the lag issues significantly if you do a full erase and OS install from scratch. Or maybe even better, a DFU restore. I had to do that on my iphone 6 because after a normal ios10 -> ios11 update, the phone was literally unusable. With the OS install process done from scratch, things were much better, but still far from the overall smoothness of iOS10. Also, I didn't do a restore of my backup, I literally did everything from scratch, installing only the basic apps I needed to, and restoring photos and messages from icloud (this was back when in the beta it was possible to restore messages like that, nowadays you will lose your messages if you do this process). I tried restoring the backup, but that just made the phone unusable again, just the same as it was initially. No idea what it was about my backup that made it be like that, but I am dragging it since the iphone 3GS days so who knows.I feel you.
6S here. I hate the lag on the home screen scrolling. Also the keyboard is killing me with the lag.
Apple please help!
MacOS did have its share of issues with people who wanted to use encrypted disk volumes, but for me, to be honest it was the best MacOS update ever. It made my laptop FLY on its internal GPU compared to how it was like before. It's like I got a different computer entirely, pretty much.Don't use an iPhone anymore, but I've heard similar horror stories about the new macOS, going to avoid upgrading my macs until the issues have been ironed out. Not sure what's going on at Apple these days, they were always dependable on the software side of things.

Except the UI renders like 2x as smoothly on iGPU now. That was a real pain point of 2016/2017 MBP and it's so much better now.No issues with High Sierra yet on my 2016 MBP 15". It feels pretty much the same as ever.

My 5S has been smooth sailing since the update. Maybe people need to downgrade back to the 5S :3
But that is awful that's it's been so bad for people that they have switched phones, shelling out more monies ; ;
Just get Pocket Casts for crying out loud.

This was happening to me, too, but somehow fixed itself.
