iOS 18.1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[James6s]

My 15PM is doing some weird stuff last few days. The battery % doesn’t drop while in use, lock and it leave it for a few mins and then it’s dropped 3% in one jump when I start using it again.

I think this is affecting 16 pro models.

None on my 16PM on 18.1.

I have noticed that when using the clean up tool on my 16 Pro Max, sometimes the screen will go black with the spinning wheel appearing then returning me to the Home Screen.

Something happens with cellular, I walk out from WiFi network and came back later and it doesn't change to WiFi calling, I have to restart the iPhone and it changes to WiFi calling in seconds

The RC build of 18.1 seemed better for battery life on my iPhone 15 Pro. I used the ipsw to update from RC to final build. Rebooted multiple times.

Edit// Rebooted manually with a hard restart.

As in unexpected reboots?

My apologizes. I meant as in I manually rebooted a few times to see if it was just something stuck running in the background. I updated to iOS 18.2 beta 1, so far isn’t draining as quick, but too soon to be 100% sure.

Updated to 18.1 on 28th, had the ”Update Finishing in Background” for a few days. Battery life had been quite good, around 5h SOT on 50% fairly heave use. But, just got back the ”Update Finishing in Background” this morning… what’s this about one might wonder.
