I started to lay down my iPhone 5 s. If iPhone slows down - speed up iOS

Release iOS version 10 became available for download at the beginning of the month, but the percentage of devices on which it is already installed has exceeded 40%. However, after the update, some iPhone owners of not the most ancient models faced the problem of system “brakes” and interface freezes. Here such a "dampness" of the firmware affects itself, which has just been published and in some moments has remained unfinished. We will not blame the developers, but we will help to solve most of the problems.

First, you need to understand that not all devices on the list of supported devices will work well with iOS 10 on board. So, more or less decent results are shown by models starting with the iPhone 5s, but the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c do not cope so well - the interface jams and periodic freezes of applications are noticeable. Therefore, in such cases it is not worth sinning for the firmware - the hardware of the smartphone sometimes simply cannot cope with the loads.

In this case, a lot of animations and running processes... To reduce their number, go to SettingsThe mainUniversal access, turn on Reducing transparency on the menu Increase contrast and turn off animations in paragraph Reducing movement.

The second point is a clean system update. If from the moment of purchase, for example, iPhone 6 on iOS 8, you installed the firmware "over the air" without iTunes help, then the culprit of the "brakes" may be extra garbage accumulated over a long time of use. In this case, it is imperative to make a backup of the data, and then erase all data and content in SettingsThe mainReset... After that, you can safely install new firmware and restore backup data.

Another aspect is the storage filled to the dump. If the iPhone constantly prompts you to free up space, then urgently clean the device from all sorts of debris. This can be done in the menu SettingsThe mainStorage and iCloudControl.

Well, stay tuned for system updates - as a rule, with each new build of the firmware, the system starts to work faster and more stable.

In our blog you can always find useful information from specialists. Perhaps the best service Apple Center in Kiev.

Immediately after its release. The release build of iOS 11 turned out to be quite stable, fast and without a large number errors, eliminate all problems from new version its mobile operating system Apple developers failed. The most common iOS 11 problems and how to solve them were discussed in this article.

What to do if the device is discharged, does not catch the network, slows down, freezes

Before proceeding with the action, be sure to make sure that the problems with your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 11 are not related to a minor software bug that occurred during the installation of the system "over the air".

To do this, just perform a forced restart of the device by simultaneously holding and holding the Power and Home buttons (the volume down button on the iPhone 7/7 Plus) until the Apple logo appears on the screen. After turning on the device, check if the error remains.

If you can't fix the problem in this simple way, a "clean" one can help. It is very simple to do.

Step 1. Disable the " Find iPhone" on the menu " Settings» → « iCloud».

Step 2. Download the iOS 11 firmware file for your device:

What to do if iPhone on iOS 11 won't catch the network

Almost every new version of iOS in the first time after its release, and even more so, at the testing stage, is characterized by a problem associated with loss of signal cellular network... iOS 11 is no exception in this regard. Fortunately, it can be solved in a very simple way.

If your iPhone running iOS 11 loses connection from time to time, and this happens without any regularity, go to the menu " The main» → « Reset", Select the item" Reset network settings”And confirm the reset. Please be aware that this action will delete saved passwords for Wi-Fi networks. In addition, the cellular network settings will be deleted from the device, which will subsequently be updated and the problem will disappear. True, this will only happen if your carrier has already updated the network settings for iOS 11.

What to do if iPhone on iOS 11 runs out of battery quickly

Advice! More than 10 of the most effective ways for increasing the battery life of iPhones running iOS 11, see.

There are two recommendations that you may find useful in the case of the problem of quickly discharging iPhone running iOS 11. First, see if one of the applications installed on the device is to blame for the fast discharging. The fact is that so far not all third party applications and games are optimized for iOS 11, as a result of which they can have a detrimental effect on battery power.

Go to the menu " Settings» → « Battery»And see the list of apps that consume the most battery power. In the event that any of the applications overloads the battery the most, provided that you do not use them very often, it is it that is responsible for the quick discharge of your iPhone. It should be temporarily removed and wait while developers adapt it for iOS 11.

Second, make sure your iPhone is running iOS 11, not beta. 19 September Apple released the final version of iOS 11, which must be migrated to all users who participated in the update testing.

Auto brightness in iOS 11

"Auto brightness" in iOS 11 is not in its usual place. Its developers are pretty deep in system settings. You can find the Auto Brightness toggle switch in iOS 11 in the Settings» → « The main» → « Universal access» → « Display adaptation". Note that the principle of the function has not changed in this case. "Auto brightness", as in previous versions of iOS, automatically adjusts the brightness in the display depending on the light level.

Apple sent the Auto Brightness switch to such a distant place for a reason. The company wanted to protect users from turning off auto brightness, which is why the time autonomous work iPhone and iPad may shrink.

Wi-Fi turns on in iOS 11

Many iPhone and iPad users complain that after turning off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth through Control Center in iOS 11, they turn back on after a while. The fact is that Apple switches Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in the updated Control Center. In iOS 11, pressing the connection buttons in Control Center disconnects from the current networks, or devices, in the case of Bluetooth.

In other words, the switches don't turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. When does an iPhone or iPad find someone you know? Wi-Fi network, the password of which was previously entered on the device, a Wi-Fi network unprotected with a password, or a previously paired Bluetooth device, they automatically connect to them.

To completely disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in iOS 11, you need to go to "Settings" and in the sections of the same name, move the function switches to inactive positions.

What to do if Bluetooth does not work on iOS 11

There are three ways to fix Bluetooth not working on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch running iOS 11.

1. Go to the " Settings» → Bluetooth, click on the icon " i"Opposite the problem device and on the page that opens, select" Forget this device". After that, search for Bluetooth devices and try to connect to the desired one again.

2. If that doesn't work, try resetting your network settings. To do this, go to the menu " Settings» → « The main» → « Reset"And select" Reset network settings". This process will only take a few seconds, after which the iPhone will forget all previously connected Bluetooth devices and you can successfully connect to the desired one.

3. If all else fails, reset all settings of your mobile device... In the same menu “ Settings» → « The main» → « Reset»Click« Reset all settings”And confirm the operation. After the end of the reset, check if the Bluetooth is working properly. Note that as a result of such a reset, your data will not be deleted, the main thing is not to press the "Erase content and settings" button, which is responsible for bringing the device to the state of factory settings.

What to do if the Camera application does not turn on

IOS 11 has an extremely unpleasant bug due to which standard application The "camera" simply does not start. Unfortunately, there is no solution to the problem right in the system. It only helps.

Above are just some of the problems that arise with iOS 11. If you encounter any other error - describe it in the comments. We will definitely help you figure it out.

Some users who have updated their devices to, write that their iPhones and iPads have become slower or do not cope with basic tasks like launching and working properly. If you are familiar with this feeling, then you can try various ways to speed up, which we will discuss below.

Many of these methods will help not only speed up the device, but also save battery power.

How to speed up your workiOS11 oniPhone andiPad

We will look at various methods, the first two of which are worth doing first, and the rest you can try in any order.

1: Install the latest available versionsiOS and applications

First you need to update your software and all your applications. Perhaps the problem is in the system itself, and its bugs were fixed in an update that you have not yet installed.

to install available updates iOS 11 (like iOS 11.0.2, iOS 11.1, etc.):

  • Open Settings> General> Software Update> Download and Install iOS Update

To update apps:

  • Open and go to the Updates tab. Install all available updates there.

2: Just installediOSeleven? Wait a little

If you've just installed iOS 11 and your device feels slower, you can just wait a bit. Big updates are slowing down devices as iOS needs to be reconfigured for Search, Siri, Photos, and other background tasks. The tuning process can slow down the entire system.

It's best to wait a couple of days and not touch the device unnecessarily. Usually after two days, the device starts working normally or even better than before. This solution will help fix battery problems as well.

3: Disable Content Updates

Content Refresh allows apps to update themselves. It improves multitasking performance, but slows down the system. It's easy to disable the feature and most users won't even notice the difference in application performance.

  • Open Settings> General> Content Update> Off.

4: Disable suggestionsSiri

You can speed up Search & Notifications by turning off Siri Suggestions.

  • Go to Settings> Siri & Search> Search Suggestions and Find Suggestions and turn off both.

5: Force restart the device

Sometimes a forced restart can improve device performance, especially if some background process slows it down.

For most iPhone models and iPad for this you need to hold down power button and buttonHome until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

On iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, you need to pinch volume down button and power button before the logo appears.

After that, you just need to wait until the device turns on.

6: set a simple wallpaper

Usage plain wallpaper being small can also help speed up the device. They require less memory, therefore, it is easier for the system to load them.

  • Go to Settings> Wallpaper> and select a boring, small-sized monochrome image.

The home screen will not look very good (or vice versa, depending on your taste), but the device may start to work faster. You can use the little gray wallpapers below or find yours similar.

7: Enable Reduce Motion

iOS uses many visual effects that look great, but load the system. By disabling these effects, you can improve the performance of your device.

  • Go to Settings> General> Accessibility> Reduce motion and turn on the switch.

* It is better to disable the autoplay function of message effects, as they can also slow down the system.

When you enable the function, the effects of opening and closing applications will be replaced with simpler animations.

8: Turn on Downgrade transparency

iOS is full of blur and transparency effects in Control Center, Notification Center, etc. They look good, but they slow down the system. These effects can be turned off.

  • Go to Settings> General> Accessibility> Increase contrast> Decrease transparency and turn the switch on.

With this feature, the display will not look so pretty, but the device will run faster.

9: Free up more memory

The more on the device free memory, the faster it will run. Ideally, you should have 10% or more free memory. If you have a device with 32GB of storage, then you need to free up at least 3GB. This is necessary so that there is room for the cache, application updates and the system itself.

  • Open Settings> General> Storage (or iPhone / iPad Storage).

it important point because when your iPhone or iPad runs out of storage, it slows down as well. You may have problems receiving emails, deletion of data, etc. Try to always have a little free memory.

10: reset settingsiOS

In some cases, a factory reset can speed up the device. Please note that after this you will have to re-configure each item in the settings.

  • Open Settings> General> Reset> Reset All Settings.

11: Make a copy and restore from itiOS

A popular way to fix system problems is to back up your device via iTunes or iCloud and then restore iOS from it. This can fix problems with the operation of the device. This is often the solution Apple offers when users turn to it for help.

You can save a copy to iTunes, iCloud, or anywhere at once. After that, connect your device to your computer, launch iTunes and select "Restore * device *". You can also recover on the device itself by choosing iCloud or iTunes.

Some users prefer to set up their device as new. In this case, all data, images, photos, notes, applications, contacts, etc. are lost. That is why it is better to restore the device from a copy.

Some even decide to roll back to previous version systems.

It used to be possible, but recently Apple stopped signing iOS 10.3.3.

Nowadays, the reality is that updating devices and their firmware is happening faster and faster. Manufacturers, in order to satisfy the growing appetites of users, stuff the firmware of their devices with a huge variety of functions. Devices released about a year or two ago are beginning to frankly give slack in the speed of work. In this article I will look at how you can speed up your iPhone on the most recent firmware. There are many different ways... I will consider the most effective of them, and there are three of them: removing unnecessary daemons from the system, removing unnecessary languages ​​and installing the swap file. But let's start in order. So.

Removing unnecessary demons

First, a little theory. In all iOS devices, there are so-called Launch Deamons, which are loaded into the system when it starts and are responsible for various functions device. Everything seems to be good in them, but there is one thing: some of these services are completely unnecessary for an ordinary user, and the system, after removing them, will be able to function in a completely new way.

Below is a list of daemons that can be safely removed without negative consequences for the system:

  • com.apple.DumpPanic.plist
  • com.apple.ReportCrash.X.plist - there should be around 5 such demons
  • com.apple.DumpBasebandCrash.plist
  • com.apple.CrashHouseKeeping.plist
  • com.apple.aslmanager.plist
  • com.apple.syslogd.plist
  • com.apple.powerlog.plist
  • com.apple.stackshot.server.plist
  • com.apple.chud.chum.plist
  • com.apple.chud.pilotfish.plist
  • com.apple.psctl.plist
  • com.apple.apsd.tcpdump.en0.plist
  • com.apple.apsd.tcpdump.pdp_ip0.plist
  • com.apple.searchd.plist- Spotlight search. If you delete, then the search will remain on springboard, but nothing will be searched
  • com.apple.AddressBook.plist- if deleted, the Contacts application will take longer to open
  • com.apple.accessoryd.plist- turns off compatibility of accessories, docking stations, FM transmitters, etc.
  • com.apple.apsd.plist- turns off Push Notifications
  • com.apple.iapd.plist- the same function as the service above
  • com.apple.accessoryd.plist.- disables the operation of accessories that come with programs for the device
  • com.apple.dataaccess.dataaccessd.plist- after deleting contacts will not sync with Exchange and Google
  • com.apple.datamigrator.plist- is responsible for the functionality of transferring contacts to the phone's SIM card. IPod Touch owners - you know what to do.
  • com.apple.racoon.plist- is responsible for the VPN operation
  • com.apple.MobileInternetSharing.plist- is responsible for the operation of the access point. If you own an iPod Touch, you can delete it again without hesitation.
  • com.apple.AOSNotification.plist- synchronization with MobileMe
  • com.apple.AdminLite.plist- makes the application force close if it is frozen
  • com.apple.graphicsservices.sample.plist- is responsible for displaying the picture of the album in the Music application
  • com.apple.UIKit.pasteboardd.plist- responsible for the Copy / Paste function
  • com.apple.scrod.plist- is responsible for Voice function Control.
  • com.apple.VoiceOverTouch.plist
  • com.apple.voiced.plist- the same function as the service above. If you removed the service above, remove this one too.
  • com.apple.mobile.profile_janitor.plist- is responsible for testing applications in Ad-hoc mode. Developers are better off not deleting.

If you do not use any functionality that the daemons are responsible for above, feel free to delete the unnecessary service.

Demon removal process

To remove daemons, follow these steps:

1) Download (if not already available) a file manager for iphone to your computer (iFunBox, iTools, iPhone PC Suite).

2) Go to file system and go to the folder System / Library / LaunchDeamons .

3) Make a backup copy of the entire LaunchDeamons folder !!! To do this, simply transfer this folder from the device to your computer desktop.

3) Remove unnecessary daemons selected from the list above.

4) Reboot.

Removing unnecessary languages ​​on the device

This is another reason why the iPhone slows down. To remove unnecessary languages ​​on the Internet, it is suggested to simply "sit down" at the computer and manually delete all folders .proj except folders ru, en, en_GB, ja... This process is quite lengthy, because about 4913 folders will have to be deleted. Your humble servant, dear readers, modified the script found earlier on the Internet, which will do all the work for you.

Now let's look at the order of deletion:

1) We go into the file system and go to the folder var / mobile

2) Transfer the file Delete.sh to the above path

3) Install 777 permissions on the file (you can do this by first downloading iCommander from Cydia).

4) Download Mobile Terminal to your device via Cydia.

5) Go to the Mobile Terminal

6) Introduce su root

7) Enter the password: alpine

9) A message will appear asking if you are sure you want to remove languages. Enter "y" and press Enter

10) After a couple of minutes, a message will pop up stating that everything went well and that about 4913 folders were deleted.

Creating a swap file

Everything is quite simple here:

1) Select the size of the swap file, download and unpack the archive to your desktop:

2) Copy the file com.apple.dynamic_pager.plist v / System / Library / LaunchDaemons .

3) Copy the file com.apple.virtualMemory.plist v / Library / Preferences .

4) We put on the folder vm located at / private / var / rights 777 (the same iCommander from Cydia)

5) Reboot.

6) Everything is ready!

After all the demons have been removed, your device will have an additional 20-30 megabytes at its disposal random access memory+ 512/256/64 mb of memory to "help" the main one, from which the device will work much faster (especially the difference is noticeable on the iPhone 3GS) and the device will become much more comfortable and pleasant to use.

September 19 (release date) Released IOS 11, many have already managed to update, because so many features have been announced. Some even thought that augmented reality would "arrive" on their 5S. It will be possible to run cool games, measure the height of a person - but fig! Let's not pull the rubber and go straight to the "tin"

Battery life

Yes, iOS 11 "eats" battery power, as if not into itself. What? There were similar problems before, when updates of iOS 7, 8, 9, 10 arrived. Then everything was decided, but, for example, it seems to me that the most optimal power consumption was in iOS 6. Unfortunately, in the first build of the official release of the 11th version of iOS there are obvious problems with the consumption of the charge - that's for sure. And keep in mind that on my iPhone everything is optimized for minimum consumption: geolocation services are disabled, sleep modes are set, if not necessary, cellular data transmission is disabled, only supported network types are selected (4G is not supported by the operator) and much more.

Games and programs won't start

I was going to play my favorite igruhu, which literally flooded the other day, and I went through a bunch of puzzles, after six months of inactivity. In general, I launch, and: “It is necessary to update such and such a game. The developer needs to update this program to work with iOS 11. "
Well, everything, the mood is spoiled. The developer is unlikely to update, there is not even advertising there, and I got it for free, it seems, within the framework of some wave of Apple's unprecedented generosity, which is called “on the ball”.

Turn-on speed

Yes, now my iPhone 5S starts up and reboots much longer than it was for "dozens". By the way, do not forget that the "nine" worked even faster. Wow, we will soon be waiting for the download for an hour. Although no, just kidding, the smartphone will not receive the next update at all.

The keyboard slows down

Thanks, of course, but at least the first day of the update rollout, the keyboard was buggy, wildly. The typing of letters just infuriated me, it felt like I had a deshman Android smartphone running Android 2.3 Gingerbread for $ 20. For the sake of truth, I will say that after some time the cache was created and now it got better, but the set is not perfect anyway.

Streaming playback

Wow, here you guys are just d # beels. Now, instead of streaming playback "on the fly", there is a built-in player that does not rip out the direct address from the player, but reproduces it according to some unknown scheme. It became worse to work, because it loads longer, often buggy, often does not reproduce at all. I looked at the iPad, there is no such crap (there old version iOS). The same vidos are played normally.
And with some update on the top ten, the ability to listen to videos from YouTube in the locked screen mode has disappeared. Yes, what do you think to yourself when you do this?
Now you have to use the stupid UC Browser to listen in the background, okay, right?

That's all, do not forget that yesterday another article came out from me, which reveals as many as 3 reasons why it is worth updating to iOS 11.
