iPhone 16 Pro restart bug is fixed in iOS 18.1
by Malcolm Owen · AppleInsiderThe upcoming update to iOS 18.1 will fix a random crashing issue for owners of the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Following the release of the iPhone 16, owners of the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max took to the Apple Support Communities and other social platforms to report a problem. Their smartphones were locking up and restarting during typical everyday use.
Part of Monday's collection of release candidates, the build of iOS 18.1 reveals that Apple will be fixing the problem with the full public release of that OS update. Elements of a release candidate are intended for the final release, and will carry over to it unless Apple finds an issue.
The release notes state that the update "fixes an issue where iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Pro models may unexpectedly restart."
The update also fixes a number of other issues affecting users, including one where Podcasts labels unplayed episodes as played. There's another fix for when videos recorded at 4K 60 while the iPhone is warm could stutter when users scrub through the footage in Photos.
It also fixes a problem where digital car keys may not unlock or start a vehicle with passive entry enabled, if the iPhone is restored from a backup or the user transfers their key between iPhones.
The full public release of iOS 18.1 is set to be issued to the public on October 28. Along with fixes, the release's main inclusion is Apple Intelligence, with the first wave offering text and image editing features using generative AI.
