The Worst iOS 11
Bugs.. An Embarrassing Look Back #Helpful Post
I
think we can all agree that the last
year
has been the worst in Apple's
entire
history when it comes to software
nothing
but non-stop bugs and glitches
just
the worst possible experience you
can
get from a company that makes such
amazing
hardware so in this video as a
year-end
review of Apple's Iowa's love
and
software I want to go ahead and take
a
look at the worst bugs that it
contained
what we had to deal with and
this
is just scratching the surface
there
is so much more than what I'm
showing
you but these have to be the
biggest
and I'm gonna start with one of
the
randomest ones on December 2nd
what's
your iPhone hit 12:15 am many
people
experience tree springing
crashing
non-stop your phone and just go
over
and over and respring and only fix
was
this was two updates 11.2 Apple
actually
released it on a weekend which
was
a first ever to fix it next up
probably
one of the most famous ones
that
Telugu character bug where you'd
send
someone these Indian characters
they
had fun wouldn't be able to process
what
it was being sent so as a result it
would
crash and you can keep doing this
over
and over basically costing
someone's
phone to stop working
completely
almost and if you sent an
Instagram
or snapchat it would actually
stop
portions of that app from working
and
this has got to be one of the worse
bugs
in Apple's history so next up is
the
unexpected shutdown issue at first
it
was thought to be a glitch you know
your
phone would just randomly shut off
around
20 to 30 percent battery life but
later
it was discovered that it was sort
of
a feature not a bug I mean that
should
be Apple's slogan and Apple
actually
came out and admitted that they
were
doing this they were throttling
your
CPU usage in order for you to get
better
battery life but as a result it
would
cause unexpected shutdowns and
this
whole fiasco was one of Apple's
biggest
messes to date as well so
hopefully
we don't have to go through
that
again in iowa's 12 next up an
absolutely
crazy one I thought the days
of
passcode bypasses were gone but I
device
helped to discover this one where
if
you actually texted someone three
emojis
in response to a call hung up and
then
called again and went back into the
messages
from there you can actually get
into
the portion of the messages app
where
you can explore your photos you
can
go into the message app store this
is
a pretty dang big bug and something
Apple
wanted fixed almost right away and
next
up the endless but annoying
autocorrect
bugs some there were several
versions
of this this one was where you
clicked
I and it would autocorrect this
a
character and then a hidden unicode's
for
whatever reason there was also one
that
corrected IT and it was really
frustrating
and this next one was just a
testament
to how bad Iowa's 11 was they
had
a text rendering bug show up in an
actual
advertisement they pushed out
that
multiple people were working on
they
later did fix it but it was just
funny
how that slipped by them as most
of
these bugs usually do and most
recently
the black top bug which yes I
am
guilty of making and this is
something
that Apple just can't prevent
because
they never envisioned that these
certain
amount of characters would ever
hit
an iPhone and cause problems like
preventing
your messages app from ever
opening
and online many software
engineers
do ten agree that the best way
to
keep these kind of bugs from
happening
is for Apple to completely
rewrite
the text handling engine in iOS
it's
something that they haven't really
redone
they're just patching all these
symptoms
of the issues and yes another
text
that when sent to somebody could
cause
their iPhone to freeze this one
was
because of a preview issue where a
website
could populate the little
preview
part inside of the messages and
just
spam it with a bunch of Unicode
text
and as a results when your iPhone
trying
to read the preview it would
freeze
it it seems like there is no end
to
these sort of text message freeze and
crash
bugs and maybe even more in the
future
are coming unless Apple does
something
about it
another
privacy bug where Siri would
read
you your third-party notifications
from
apps like Gmail or whatsapp without
having
to enter your passcode all you'd
have
to do is ask her to read it for you
and
bypassing all of the security that
Apple
put in place she would do so on
how
can we forget the famous calculator
bug
it's an input lag bug where you
would
click one plus two plus three it
would
give you an answer of 24 instead
of
the correct one which is six so Apple
updated
animations and fixed it later on
now
this one was closer to the release
of
the iPhone in the very early days of
iowa's
11 but when the iPhone 10 was in
a
cold temperature the screen would stop
responding
or respond very poorly and
it's
interesting to me that this was a
software
issue and not Hardware I would
have
thought that you know being in cold
that
the screen being a hardware issue
would
stop responding but Apple patched
it
with a later version of iOS 11 and
one
that was super frustrating a lot of
people
had to experience this both on
iOS
10 and now again in iowa's 11
updating
to a newer version of iowa's 11
would
actually brick it and keep it from
turning
on just because you had a
third-party
display on some would turn
on
but just wouldn't respond and this
next
one was very dangerous but for the
people
that got a
very
beneficial if you had an activation
iCloud
lock device you could use this
glitch
where spamming zero zero zero on
the
activation lock screen where you can
unlock
with the passcode would actually
entirely
bypass the activation lock
screen
where you can go ahead and enter
your
iCloud afterwards and completely
reset
the phone it was ridiculous it was
the
first time in my entire history of
working
on YouTube that I was able to
actually
bypass an iCloud lock device
and
keep it that way and this one still
happens
it's super annoying next time
your
battery gets below 5% try to use it
use
some animations it slows to a
complete
crawl it's almost impossible to
use
Welby Apple fixes that I was 12 and
this
one happens to me way more on iPads
but
this happens all the time
icons
overlap menus menus overlap
certain
things they're not supposed to
there's
definitely some sort of weird
rendering
issue going on in iOS 11 and
messages
has been very problematic in
iOS
11 from the beginning from these
multiple
typing indicators which were
super
annoying to this where your
messages
would appear completely out of
order
many people are still experiencing
this
even on Iowa's eleven point three
point
one and this one is a very common
but
I've seen a lot of people
experiencing
it where your apps just
decide
to go on a journey and float away
but
they never quite do they just sit
there
stuck on your homescreen and I've
had
endless issues with the lockscreen
music
player the one it would stick
around
even after music would stop
playing
to the progress indicator just
sticks
at zero zero zero or a zero zero
one
and just stays there no matter where
you're
at in the song so guys there it
is
those are my most frustrating issues
I've
had with iOS 11 the worst bugs hope
Apple
can learn from this and certainly
improve
I was 12
