Apple Releases iOS 26.0.1 With Fixes for Wi-Fi, Cellular, and Camera Issues on iPhone 17 Models

[Reeneman]

<<For those who are unable to update to iOS 26.0.1, Apple has released a iOS 18.7.1 update.>>

You mean for those who want no part of iOS 26. I bought my first Apple product in 1995, a Power Macintosh 8500. This is the first time in 30 years Apple has released something so bad and perplexing that I will walk away rather than accept it and pretend to like it.

lol ok.
Welcome to the forum. We will be here for you.
iOS 26.7 might be here some day, so you can finally update. You’re not alone. We will stand strong with you.

Ok one thing that's changed/been fixed is the camera no longer freezes or crashes on iPhone 13 mini when opened from the lock screen shortcut. Good.

Wired CarPlay Bug remains for me ugh!!!

Same here.

Does anyone have an iPhone 16 Pro Max with OS 26.0? I had no issues with my 16 Pro Max (before trade in) on iOS 18. Would be good to confirm if this is a hardware issue related to 17’s or if it is OS 26.0 too.

I had no CarPlay issues with my 16 Pro and iOS 26, betas and final.

Didn’t fix the temp blank icons when adjusting tint etc.

I'm waiting at on least 26.2 before I consider using iOS 26.

It's hard to believe that made it through pre-production testing.

I sometimes think that Apple is counting on users to test new products for them.

That’s exactly what they’re doing. It’s the same every year.

praying this fixes all the cellular drops i've been having on the 17 pro max

I started using 26 on my mac. Why did they do something that complicated?

 

[SebCohen]

No. It’s not 26.1….better still would be 26.2. I’ll get that, if I still don’t loathe glas

3 more iOS updates and 26 will be ready for me to install. I won’t install it earlier. I don’t want to be a software tester

Apple's beta testing is a joke that's why they allow public betas so the users report the bugs in their iOS!

 

[crobcary]

Nope! Still not enough to make me
Update to the disaster called iOS 26!

Honestly, some of y'all are so damn dramatic.

Its one way to save cost. So you probably right.

I just want my wireless CarPlay to work. Does this fix that? Has been driving me crazy.

 

[DeanCorp]

I had no issues with my 16 Pro Max the following few days after trade in, after I had this bug on my 17 Pro Max. It seems 17 specific.

Thanks, I thought as much. Have you tried a reset network settings after todays update?

Sadly not

Reenabling 5G to see if my issue is fixed. My 17 Pro bounced back and forth between 5G UWB, 5G and LTE standing in the same spot without signal strength (bars) changing

 

[Darth Tulhu]

No thanks. Staying away from anything 26 until I can't.

I'm more than happy with Sequoia and iOS/iPadOS 18.

I don't really need any of the new (and actually useful) features that come bundled in that bubbly mess.

I haven't even updated my Apple TVs.

.4 is always a good one. Before it’s too buggy and risky.

 

[frozencarbonite]

Being on an iPhone 14 Pro Max, I'm still not updating until at least 26.1.

I really want to, but I can't risk it.

 

[cbaca51]

I’ve encountered none of these bugs so probably won’t update, for now

 

[markgpearse]

Available for my iPhone, but not my iPad.

 

[MareLuce]

Anyone else get stuck at this point for at least 45 minutes?

( iPhone 17 Pro Max )

Unlikely, the cellular modem software revision has not changed
