iOS 11.3 Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[Enjoylife1788]

I have had limit ad tracking turning off repeatedly randomly. Anybody else facing the same issue?

Did the notes stored on iCloud take space previously? I found after 11.3 they are taking up my iCloud storage space. Can anyone with an earlier gen of iOS (with a different Apple ID) confirm whether even in 11.2.6 and before, notes used to take up space?

I’m on 11.1 (thankfully) and I see that notes take up space in iCloud

I use notes in iCloud but it’s not showing up on mine; however, I have seen note showing up before. I’m not sure when it disappeared.. What’s new to me is now Message is taking up space in iCloud. That never happened and I never installed beta.

One can use the Restrictions settings (under Settings > General > Restrictions) to prevent these or other settings changing seemingly “on their own.” I’ve personally found playing around with Restrictions pretty rewarding when it comes to optimizing/locking down various parts of the OS (such as disabling Siri and Dictation).

The Music app is totally broken. No sync with iCloud Music Library and you have to keep forcing all iOS devices to sync by adding a song to a playlist. Happens on iPhone and iPad! ANNOYING!

Also the MacBook Air has syncing problems with iCloud Music Library. No problems beforehand.

Seeing this too.

Has anyone had the no service bug? In the main I’m really enjoying 11.3. Seems to have sorted lots of little annoyances I had on the X, but of late I’ve had no service each day at least once. Only rebooting sorts it,...

I experience this every day as well. It's quite annoying and I don't know I don't have service until I look at my phone. You never know when something bad happens and someone can't reach you.

iOS 11 has been a straight up mess. I haven't experienced many bugs but the ones I have, they're rather inconvenient.

Every once in a while my cellular data just completely drops for no apparent reason. Don’t know if this is a software or hardware issue. I have an iPhone X running 11.3. Anyone else have this issue?

Both of my iphone 7/8 displays are sticky and lagging, No third party repair!

I have 11.2.6 iOS on iPhone SE.
Is it worth to upgrade to 11.3 or not...

I must ask, usually I update, but I keep 12.6 iTunes because easy App Update.
And for 11.3 I need new iTunes. That mean update iTunes > update iOS > uninstall iTunes 12.7 > install old 12.6 version.

seem to have fixed m my issue by logging out of all icloud accounts on my devices, restarting, then logging back in.

Iphone has slow down. It launches apps late. Battery timing is also very poor due to ios 11.3. This update is quite disappointing.
[doublepost=1523555727][/doublepost]When I was using ios 11.2 then my phone was not consuming much battery. But now it is consuming battery rapidly. Ios team should fix this bug as soon as possible.

You don’t need 12.7 to upgrade your iDevice. You can either update OTA or download the IPSW files -see techblogger post above yours - and then Shift+click the iTunes Update button (on windows, different key for MacOS). I have upgraded my X,6s+ and 10.5 pro using this method.

In another thread someone has said restores won’t work with 12.6 but I can always use iCloud if I need a restore.

Do u jailbreak? Or just happy with 11.1?

 

[souko]

Is someone experiencing many resprings? iPhone 6S
Especially after pulling down notification centre.
(Had 4 resprings yesterday)

Have to say that it is much better now... About 1 respring per day or two days... iOS probbably settled down...

 

[fawkes81]

my iphone 7 is less buggy etc. on ios 11.3 but also too slow. It launches apps too late than ios 11.2.4

Just fine with 11.1 considering the problems folks are having. Almost afraid to update to 11.3 as I don’t want to suffer battery problems or any of the minor other bugs.

 

[Enjoylife1788]

May be my battery backup has taken a hit but my devices
, iPhone 7 and iPad Air are running fine. I would say if iPad Air which is so old is running well then the newer devices have to.

I would suggest update through dfu mode and the restore backup. Or even try updating through iTunes before that if dfu is too much. Download the ipsw and update through iTunes. With internet speeeds being so fast these days, it should not be that an isssue. I know it’s not ideal but better our devices run fine than complaining for Apple to get it correct

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it,

If it is broke and terrible, try to fix it with an update

Is a good mantra

 

[sbailey4]

Anyone notice how loud notification sounds are and the clipping/click audio from them? Seems the Chord sound is the worst. Overdriven to the point it clicks before the sound plays.

 

[imagineadam]

Anybody having delay displaying the battery percentage in the status bar when toggling it on and off?

 

[georgejr]

Yes! I thought it was just me. Glad someone else noticed this. It doesn't seem to make any difference when adjusting the ringer volume either. There doesn't seem to be any way to reduce the notification volume that I can find.

 

[imagineadam]

Does any one else’s control center do this when you toggle on and off reduce motion? These annoying little nick nack bugs are driving me nuts with 11.3. My 7 was fine on 11.2.6.

 

[gaanee]

Yes, have seen this multiple times and it's pretty much repeatable.. happens almost every time.
Turn Reduced Motion Off -> Close Settings app -> Open Control Center and then close -> Open Settings -> Turn Reduced Motion On -> Open Control Center .. and it's transparent without frosty background.
Only solution so far is to turn on Reduced Motion again and then off.
Didn't notice this bug in previous versions. It's so obviously noticed and annoying when it happens.. wonder how it slipped pass Apple's quality control.
