iPhone 15 has Wi-Fi error again

"My iPhone 15 Pro Max keeps losing connection after a while. Other smart devices in the house don't have this problem," the accountFozzy-79reflected on Apple's community page. "The only way to continue accessing the Internet is to switch to cellular or turn off Wi-Fi and reconnect, but the situation still does not go away." In the comments section, 371 people clicked the "Me too" button.

"I have the same problem with my iPhone 15 Pro. Every 45 seconds, the network will drop. Maybe this is an issue with iOS 17. Hopefully it's not hardware related," the accountToronto4112comment.

On forums like Reddit or Apple's community page, many people said their iPhone 15 randomly disconnected from Wi-Fi after a short time, or the network speed was very slow. According to the record of9to5mac, the problem still occurs after Apple updated iOS version 17.0.3 to limit iPhone 15 from overheating abnormally.

In addition, earlier this week, some iPhone 15 users reported that the sound coming from their smartphones "sounded weirder" than usual and was very distorted when the volume was turned up. The solution was to lower the volume to a certain threshold. Previously, another bug that Apple fixed was data backup, in which users could not transfer data from their old device to the iPhone 15, or it took longer than usual to do so.

iOS 17 was released on September 18 with many changes in call features, messages, AirDrop data transfer capabilities... But three days later, Apple had to release the first update 17.0.1 to patch three security holes, along with version 17.0.2 to fix data errors for the iPhone 15 series. By September 26, iOS 17.0.2 was expanded to all remaining iOS 17-supported devices. On October 4, Apple continued to deploy iOS 17.0.3, fixing the overheating problem of the iPhone 15.

"iOS is full of bugs and Apple is in a battle over which issues to fix first,"PhoneArenacomment. This site predicts that Apple will soon release iOS 17.0.4 to address the new issues next week.

According to statistics from the application tracking siteMixpanel, nearly 23% of iPhones are running one of four versions of iOS 17. Of these, 12.13% are running iOS 17.0.2, 6.84% have downloaded 17.0.3, 1.76% are on 17.0.1, and about 2% are on iOS 17.

CultofMacThe numbers aren't impressive, considering that iOS 17 comes pre-installed on millions of new iPhones. Last year, when the iPhone 14 series hit shelves, 29% of users had installed iOS 16 after two weeks, and 70% after four months. In 2018, more than 70% of iPhones had downloaded iOS 12 after just two months.
