Please fix the iOS 26 issues, I use this phone for trading, I can’t handle the overheating and lagging, I already lost loads amounts of money because of the lagging
No one here can fix anything. This is a user to user only forum. If your phone is overheating and lagging, have you checked your Battery Health? Both issues you've described are symptomatic of a battery which may be failing, not necessarily an issue with iOS 26. Open Settings > Battery > Battery Health - if your battery health is close to or below 80%, the battery in your iPhone needs to be replaced, which will solve heating and lagging issues.

Since I moved to Apple almost 20 years ago - I've overall been very happy with what I get and how it performs but iOS 26 has me reconsidering the whole apple ecosystem.
The fact that the moderator changed the post to "potential" problems is almost comical. I don't see anyone in the eight pages of posts that doesn't with 100% certainty "HAVE" a problem they didn't have before. And I know with certainty that when I know can't forward a photo - from photos - to a text - it's a problem.
Just to list a few of the "potential" bugs I'm experiencing
- photo won't forward to a text from photos - goes to text but no photo
- text strings don't even show up when you try to forward a text -
- switching to almost any app is "jumpy" and not smooth at all
- when I try to use stored signins/passwords it asks for my passcode but then won't populate the field with either the email or password
- messenger chat's (on wife's phone lost/wouldn't load)
And now a few PERSONAL preference things I don't like
- I hate the new clock icon
- don't understand why a search bar needed to be moved in text search
- camera controls now hide where portrait is - additional looking to find it
- and battery "low power" mode is now hidden in an additional menu
The issues aren't potential and have literally handicapped my phone right as I will be attending a huge work conference.
The PERSONAL concerns are just those - personal - but they do seem less efficient.
Very disappointing a big iOS would be this buggy.
Additionally, I have seen comments about "well it was made for the newest hardware - maybe it's a hardware problem" - well both my phone and my wife's are 16 pros - if an iPhone is "legacy" in one year - well then it's probably time to start thinking google.

Hello, the issue I find in the latest update of IOS 26.1 is that when you answer a call or hang up there is no haptics like it used to have before the update.
Settings > Apps > Phone > Haptics- turn it on.
Whether helpful or not--I tried to set up an iPhone 13 mini and could not get it to keep a connection to either wifi or any bluetooth device with Ios 26.1 The iphone 13 mini would set up but never hold a connection. Devices below
Took out my old phone iPhone SE 2020 and all wifi connections and Bluetooth devices I have keep their connections with no trouble. Devices tested: Phonak Roger ON (connects to two AB Bionics sound Processor for Cochlear Implant) and a sound processor for the AB Bionics (same device). The sound processor allows phone conversations so someone already deaf.
After updating my iPhone 15 Pro to iOS 26.1, I’m facing an issue with the camera. When I open the Camera app, the screen either goes black or freezes and I’m unable to zoom. Additionally, the camera doesn’t work during video calls.
