I can’t understand how all those badly needed bug fixes didn’t make it into the GM!
 
Looking forward to them to continue to update,, has seemed buggy has heck on my 6S+ ... think it's kinda funny they call out unresponsiveness on 6S as due to non genuine parts... mine has never been touched and was bought new and has those issues :)
Yeah, my 6s is as original as it gets, but is truly sluggish. Guess I'll see how this updated goes. How battery life improves, that is also toast on my iPhone.

Likewise.
My daughter's iPhone has all genuine parts, bought from a local Apple store and gets the screen freezes.

Unless Apple is selling iPhones with NOT genuine apple parts that claim about screen responsiveness is bogus.

That was the case but they started signing 10.3.3 just for the 6s later that day or the next day.

Its not sluggishness that they are referring to. There was an issue whereby the device would not function at all from home screen after installing iOS 11 on a 6s that had has a 3rd party display repair. You can google it and see more about this. That's most likely why they started signing 10.3.3 again for the 6s until they could resolve it.
 
Is this update worth bothering with when it’s an iPhone 6?
My 6 plus is handling iOS 11 well. 11.0.0 got buggy on day 2 of an over the air update. Plugged into my computer and setup as new device, and 11 ran a lot smoother. 11.0.1, 11.0.2 updated over the air and ran smoothly. Just updated to 11.0.3 and don’t anticipate any problems.

Be careful. Made update from 11.0.2 to 11.0.3. And my iPad Pro 10.5 died. Did even not possible to recovery from DFU.

Currently using the 10.5” iPad Pro with the latest update and no issues really.
[doublepost=1507763413][/doublepost]So nobody else is having issues on their iPhone with sending screenshots? I have 7 Plus 256GB and every time I take a screenshot the damn thing freezes up for like 30 seconds and its even worse if I screenshot and then use markup to circle something and then try to send it.
 
I didn't have much issues with previous iOS updates but this time with iOS 11 update, it's the worst.
Apples quality control, in-house testing and public beta testing all need to be re-organised. It's clearly not effective as it should be.
Apple should take the opportunity to learn from this release so that it doesn't happen next time.
 
Please fix this right away bec my phone keeps on rebooting:((
[doublepost=1507766783][/doublepost]And sad to say bec there is no downgrade anymore:(
 
Last weekend I took my daughter iPhone 6s to get the screen replaced at a local shop. I was going to sell it to my boss and he declined after noticing the touchscreen wasn’t working. Now I see the update release notes about aftermarket screens. :mad: I had went back to the shop to complain and the guy had to put the broken OEM screen back on because he had tried 3 different screens and none worked.

I’ve got major issues with my iPad Pro 10.5 running iOS 11.0.3. It connects to wifi for a bit then disconnects and I have to reset the iPad to get it to connect again.

11.0.2 did not have this issue. Is there anyway I can downgrade back to iOS 11.0.2??
 
Thats called touch disease and it's a design flaw. Lucky us bought the flawed design in the new model design. But apple is happy to replace it for $150 with the same flawed model which will get the same issue in a few months.

p.s.This is why I am leaning towards skipping release 1 of the iPhone X. Buggy first gen models...


Hi @WannaGoMac (nice name by the way regarding the iOS 11 mess, High Sierra is fine),

and sorry for my long "story" what drifted too much off the topic and I am also too tired to check it for typos etc. now.


tl;dr:

Same unresponsiveness on SE (and gone after downgrade).

I chose to use just my Mac(s) for now (and maybe an iPad with 10.3.3) because iOS 11.whatever is a completely mess on almost every iPhone and iPad for many reasons and I am not talking about micro stutters, that I never experienced.

Maybe my almost fast enough but too small 4s with even the option to downgrade from 9.3.3 to 6 could be used when I need a phone until I get my perfectly working 6s Plus with 10.3.3 back (what also worked better with 11 as a brand new crazy fast 8 Plus).

Everything explained in my much too long text. Sorry even this is getting long. At first I just wanted to say that it could be touch disease but not on my SE.




So, the SE also has touch disease? I am experiencing exactly the same screen unresponsiveness (but not the other flaws) since iOS 11 on mine. A downgrade to 10.3.3 fixed it then I upgraded again after the updates 11.0.1, 11.0.2, 11.1 beta 2 and can't downgrade anymore because Apple stopped signing.

It even feels like DB1 and/or 2 (maybe 3, can't exactly remember) of 11 was more usable and it is getting worse and worse with every new update.

Gladly my 4s still has 9.3.3 on it and I never got offered an OTA update to a newer version (probably because I did not delete the DB profile in time). It's slower but usable with the correct settings. But I could even downgrade to iOS 6, what is not possible with 9.3.4 or 5.

My 6s Plus did not have really issues since DB1 of 11 (but I am not a "power user"). I sadly had to give (or lend) it to my brother because he cracked the display of his 6 and it wasn't fixed properly or has some kind of touch disease now and he has no money for a new one.
I wanted to keep it for at least 5 years because of greedy €1.049 (128GB).
Luckily he forced me to downgrade it to 10.3.3 before it was too late because of his crashing apps that I never used. I don't know how it would do now for me and hopefully get it back soon and stay on that version. Otherwise have to find a used one.

I had to buy an interim 8 Plus 64GB (at least "just" 909€ now) what I never ever wanted and will send it back.
Too many bugs (not those "crackling sounds") and ugly design flaws in stock apps in every version from 11.0 to 11.1 beta 2. Also the new App Store is horrible buggy. The search really improved.
But often I don't see that an app had already been purchased ("get" instead of "cloud") and if I scroll down in an app description just a little too fast the screen gets blank.

Even more horrible is my 10.5" iPad Pro what I only purchased because it was just 89€ with a new contract I needed anyway and didn't need a new phone.
I will sell very soon, don't now what version of iOS is on my 9.7 Pro, it worked better with 11 but I think I set it up as new after downgrading it to 10.3.3 because it was also an option for my brother.

Anyway I am mostly using my Macs with High Sierra (what seems to work fine) and hate all iOS devices now. I never really liked iPads but finally wanted to try one mostly because of the pencil.

My brother also chose to rather lend my Early-2016 12" MacBook (instead of an iPad) because his white Mid-2010 what I also gave to him for free, even though I loved it, had a software error what I fixed by just an "update" to the same Sierra version from Recovery and uninstalling some bloat apps he did not really need (like Acrobat Reader and Chrome).

And I had to buy an over prized 2017 15.4" (the cheapest version with his student discount and crappy free 300€ Beats ) as a weight and screen size compromise for the 12" and the perfectly working Late-2011 17", both are good but I only want one MacBookWhatever that is not too heavy, has a large enough screen and no keyboard issues I might get. Still hoping for a recall... I missed the return window because I was sick.

Is this a known bug with IOS 11..that every time you put in a new firmware it makes the volume control NOT work til you reboot the iPad..its so weird but its already happened twice, once with this firmware and another time with the previous firmware
 
11.00 was pretty bad, but 11.01 has been a lot better for me. I'm probably going to stick with 11.01 for awhile. I am glad they seem to be addressing a lot of the issues people are having. Hopefully they will get it streamlined in the next 6 months or so.
 
The update broke blur background on my iPad when swiping up control center. :mad:

Apple today released iOS 11.0.3, the third official update to the new iOS 11 operating system. iOS 11.0.3 comes a little over one week after Apple released iOS 11.0.2, an update that fixed an issue causing crackling sounds to come from the iPhone 8 earpiece, and almost one month after the official release of iOS 11.

The iOS 11.0.3 update can be downloaded for free on all eligible devices over-the-air in the Settings app. To access the update, go to Settings --> General --> Software Update.

Today's update addresses bugs and issues that have been discovered since the release of iOS 11.0.2. According to Apple's release notes, the update fixes issues related to haptic feedback and the touchscreen. The iOS 11 update introduces a redesigned Lock screen experience, a customizable Control Center, a more natural Siri voice, a redesigned App Store, new HEVC and HEIF codecs for better photo and video efficiency, and an entirely overhauled interface for the iPad. For more info on all the new features in iOS 11, check out our iOS 11 roundup.

[doublepost=1507776092][/doublepost]Maybe bring back my old ring tones so I don’t have to listen to the default ring( bamboo wind chimes)ugh.
 
Why do people keep bringing up how many MB an update is? You do realize that a 100MB update does not mean that 104857600 characters in the source code were altered, right? If even one character of code is changed in a file that is 100MB when compiled, the entire 100MB file needs to be updated. In other words, very minor changes can result in very big downloads; and vice versa. You get this right?

For example, if I change one letter in a 5MB Word Document, you still need to download the entire document to get that one change.
It's America. Size is everything ;)
 
I noticed a regression to pre iOS 10 yesterday when listening to Apple Music and opening the camera (direct to stills, not video) and it paused music. Seriously Apple, get it together or this is my last iPhone. Not worth the price these days for shoddy experience.
Android phones can cost as much or more and i promise you’ll be more frustrated. I have a Note in my pocket right now that I want to throw in the garbage.
