Tens affected

Mr. Jobs would've just said that users are holding it wrong.

 

[randolorian]

Sounds like a feature to me.

 

[JulienCasey]

iOS 26 is just full of bugs.

 

[Schizoid]

Probably the most used sentence here…

Apart from “Lowest price on Amazon”

 

[CocktailHour]

Probably impacting me, thought I'll never know.

Scratchgate, CarPlay Gate, AI Gate…
Woah this is really the worst gen of iPhones ever.

 

[jeremz1ne]

i only use the Ai for the photo cleanup that about it

Shout out to the rogue engineer who disabled it as a chivalrous act and gave us free disk space. Your work will not be forgotten

Seems like an excuse to not to blame their N chip, which is having a lot of problems on all 17 models.

Take this for what it’s worth. I turn Apple Intelligence off on my 16pm running iOS 26 and my battery life has def been better.

Can’t confirm. No issues so far with connectivity on the 17 Pro.

I use Apple Intelligence with the ChatGPT extension sometimes with my Action Button.

Confirmed bug with the N1, better hope Apple fixes it or it will be a problem long term.

What exactly does this log says?

 

[CrysisDeu]

Wait people actually use Apple Intelligence?

 

[springsup]

Good thing I have it OFF.

By choice or do you own an iPhone 17?

 

[ZipZilla]

Maybe the software will be ready for the new phones next year.....

 

[Nekomichi]

Umm...who in their right mind is actually using AI? Seriously....

LOL....

This sounds like a feature, not a bug. LMAO...

I had a very similar bug on the iPhone 15 Pro Max with iOS 18.3, it happened even when I didn't manually turn Apple Intelligence on.

When an iPhone is stuck in this state, it causes increased battery drain since it's constantly trying, failing, and retrying to download the model files in the background. It also prevents the user from turning Apple Intelligence off because the on/off toggle goes missing. That's why it's important to get this fixed, since the bug can actually prevent users from turning Apple Intelligence off.

interestingly or not I had a iPhone 15 pro for around a day while my iPhone 14 Pro was being repaired I created some emojis now back on my iPhone 14 Pro and all the created emojis are on my account or recently used and I can use any of them without any issues .

Annoying to see these bugs on a brand new device. Expecting a software fix soon to address these issues. Have not yet received my 17 Pro Max. Hopefully there will be a fix by the time I receive it.

No problems with my son’s 17 pro.
