Apple released iOS 18.0.1 and iPadOS 18.0.1 yesterday evening, the first two updates to iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 that were released earlier in September. The update comes at an unusual time, coming two weeks after the release of iOS 18. The update appears to fix a number of issues, especially for newer Apple devices, including the iPhone 16's sometimes unresponsive touchscreen.
What's new in iOS 18.0.1, according to Apple
This update provides important bug fixes and security updates to iPhone, including:
- Touchscreen may temporarily stop responding under certain conditions on iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models
- Camera freeze possible when recording macro video with 4K Ultra Wide camera while HDR is off on iPhone 16 Pro models
- Messages may quit unexpectedly when replying to a message through a shared interface on Apple Watch
- Performance may be affected due to a memory allocation issue on some iPhone models.
Before updating, make sure to take a backup copy of the contents of your device, whether on iCloud or on the iTunes application
To update your device, take the following steps ...
1
Go to Settings -> General -> Software Update, it will show you that an update is available.

After the update is finished, the device will restart. After several steps, the update will be completed.
The screen is still unresponsive despite the 18.1 update. Is anyone having the same issue? Any suggestion to solve this problem?
I have a problem with my Facebook ID. After the update, it no longer works. After I turn off the phone, it works and then does not work again. What is the solution? My phone is an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The thing that bothered me the most was the appearance of lighting flashes during shooting, which forced me to change the settings and reduce the frames by choosing the PAL mode in the camera settings.
Hi Saeed Obaid 🙋♂️, This flicker might be due to the difference in lighting frequency with the shooting frequency. But you did the right thing by changing to PAL mode 👏. And don't forget, Apple always listens to its users, so a solution might be provided in the next updates. Keep sharing your experience, you are part of making the Apple world better! 🌍🍏
When is 18.1 coming out?
In the middle of October, God willing
Peace and mercy of God
May your efforts be blessed, my brothers.
I have a question. After iOS 18, some new fonts appeared on the device. How can we benefit from them, especially since I want to change the appearance of the Arabic text to the text found in iOS 16. Is this available?
Secondly, after the iOS18 update, the iPhone sound has decreased very, very noticeably, the ringtone sound, notifications, and even typing on the keyboard, knowing that if I happen to be typing on the keyboard at the time of a notification, the typing sound becomes louder than it is currently. What is the problem? Have other users encountered this?
Also the keyboard typing sound has changed a bit.
Thank you my friends
Unfortunately, the fonts feature is still available within applications that support fonts, not the system.
Backgrounds in tools not working?
True, we will fix this issue soon.
Frankly, I haven't updated and for a long time I haven't done minor updates. I only do major updates while waiting for the iOS 18.1 update.
Honestly, I haven't updated and I haven't done sub-updates for a long time.
I only do major updates waiting for ios 18.1 update
Thank you very much for the quick notification of the update.. although I wish you would write about the importance of this update as you have accustomed us to before.. all the best 🌹
I updated the last one, honestly it worked for me on the iPhone 11 Pro Max 🥰👌
Battery how
Also, after the latest update, when taking pictures with the iPhone, lines appear in the camera and they look like flashes, and this is really annoying.
Hello Abu Wadih Sadr 🙋♂️, It seems that you are experiencing a camera lines problem after the update. This problem may be caused by software or it may be a problem with the hardware itself. You can try restarting the device or resetting the settings. If the problem persists, it may require a visit to the Apple Store to have the device checked. You are not alone in this problem, some users have encountered the same problem. We hope the problem is resolved quickly! 🍏📱😊
Hello. First of all, thank you for all your interest in Phone Islam.
I use iPhone 11 and after the last update the device became slow and unresponsive and the normal connection does not answer when calling someone it always gives a connection failure then I restart the device and wait a little this is after the last update knowing that I had a connection failure problem in the previous iPhone and it was solved with the code *#31# but currently it is useless and does not accept the connection I hope for a solution soon and thank you
Hi Abu Wadih Sadr 🙋♂️, Thank you for letting us know about the issue you are facing with your iPhone 11 after the latest update. It seems that this issue may be related to the update itself. You can try re-updating by connecting to the internet via Wi-Fi and not mobile data. If the issue persists, it may be a good idea to visit an Apple Store or contact customer service for technical support. The code *#31# is to check the call roaming status and may not help solve this issue. We hope your issue is resolved soon! 🍏📱💪
Well done and thank you very much
I have a second question: Why is it that if I charge the battery to a certain percentage and then do not use it for five or nine hours, and when I return to it, I find a low percentage? What is the solution? Is it the battery percentage or does the battery cycle or what is the solution? I hope you will answer correctly.
Hello Habbat Al Baraka 🌹, Your problem could be due to several reasons. It is possible that the device is performing background updates, or there may be applications running without your knowledge and consuming battery power. So, you can check the battery consumption in the settings to see which applications are consuming the most. Also, turning off the “Background Refresh” feature for applications that do not need to be updated constantly may help. Finally, if your device’s battery life is long, it may need to be replaced. I hope this information is useful to you and I am happy that I could help you! 😄👍
Does the update really drain the battery as usual or not?
Hello, Habbat Al-Baraka 🌼, As we all know, updates can have an impact on the battery, but this depends on several factors such as the type of device and the programs you are using. As for the iOS 18.0.1 update, nothing specific to the battery was mentioned in the official notes from Apple 🍏. So, it is better to try the update yourself and see how it affects your device! And do not forget to always take a backup before updating 🔄. Best regards, a humble Apple fanboy! 😄
Oh my God, the battery is flying. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is not working.
Honestly, iOS 18 is a failure. Everything written in it is not available in Europe and China. They don’t even mention the Arab countries in the update. That means if you’re not American, you pay for iron pieces for nothing. Most of the features are not available outside Trump’s country.
Failed, failed, failed. This is an update and the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Hi Abdullah 🙋♂️! It seems like you're frustrated with the new update, and I totally understand. But let me tell you that Apple is always working on improving features and services around the world 🌍. It may take some time, but don't worry, patience is the key 😅. I would also like to remind you that updates always include performance improvements and bug fixes, even if some features aren't available in your region. There's still a lot to enjoy 👍.
After the update, the red dot appeared, and it is not supposed to be
Hi Moatasem 🙋♂️, The red dot may appear for several reasons. There may be an app that needs your attention, or maybe there is a new notification that you haven't read yet. Try to check all apps and notifications, and if the problem persists, the solution may be to restart the device. Always ready to be optimistic, maybe it's just the iPhone's way of adding some color to your life! 😅📱🔴
Good evening
After update 18, I have a problem with the Apple Watch. Before the update, if the sound on the watch is clear, I mean the sound
After the update, it started to interfere
No call recording
Call recording in version 18.1 which will come in mid October, this version is 18.0.1
Actually, my device has been with me for a year. It just updated to iOS18. This is the first time the touch has stuck. Of course, my device is a 14 Pro Max.
The photos app has become annoying with the latest update. I hope it returns to how it was 😔
