Apple iOS

Today, my phone froze for the first time (iOS 17.2.1). It could be due to the fact that I was pushing it to handle a lot of data at once, but it happened for the first time ever.

What freaked me out is that when I pushed the volume down and screen lock buttons, it made a police-like siren and called the distress number 112. I had no way of disconnecting the call until it got disconnected on its own, as it didn’t receive any input for 46 seconds.

Today is also the day when I discovered how to force shut down the phone in these circumstances. Push the volume up button once, then the volume down button, followed by a press-and-hold action of the screen lock button until it shuts down.
 
I faced screen unresponsive issue on 12 Mini few months ago. Nothing worked and most solutions online needed screen input 😂
I too discovered steps to restart (now forgot 😬) without screen input.
 
Don’t know why battery life becomes great just after installation of every update on ios.

But after 2-3 weeks battery comes back to its normal self with drain lol
 
If I turn the volume all the way down, and I am on Instagram the volume goes up automatically. Not to the level as it was earlier, but about 25%. So I have made it a habit to lower the volume twice. Is this a bug or by design?
 
Voicemail isn’t working after the recent update. Anyone else facing the same issue?
