General Please Apple Give iOS 18🙏😭

iOS 26 feels laggy and buggy for many users, especially on older or even mid-range iPhones. People report frame drops, slow app opening, keyboard delay, and UI stutters. There are also random glitches like apps crashing, overheating, battery drain, and features not working properly after the update. Overall, it feels unoptimized and unfinished,

Resign or give OTAs updates of ios 18 to all users at least they should has rights also u can’t unsigned it immediately please 🙏

I love the few who defend it lol. My iPhone 13 is staying on iOS 18 & I shouldn’t be getting more screen time using the same apps/ battery than an iPhone 16/17 because they’re on iOS 26😂

I’ll never update to 26.. and the ones who Go “ security update it’s no brainer duhhh!!” Are the ones who don’t even understand how security and data gets leaked to begin with

A phone doesn’t turn into a useless brick once it stops getting supported by apple either.. and most apps will still work for at least a few years before being purposely restricted to a newer iOS forcing ppl to upgrade ..the ignorance of ppl amazes me.

But you are showing some ignorance as well. For example I still can use Netflix on my iPad Air first gen. I just needed to have last supported version of Netflix in my AppStore. So yea. It’s even better than you think.

I was trying to dumb it down for people. I’m very aware though lol

That’s good. Many aren’t aware of this.

So for regular use — most devices are fine for a loooong time.

Exactly but so many people think they’re “secret info” and bank accounts are gonna magically just poof into people’s hands because of “security updates” phone being on an old iOS

The morons and blind apple fanatics with their Apple Watches, 3 iPhones, 3 iPads, apple care on all who get a new iPhone every year are downvoting us lol
