- Many iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max users are complaining of random reboots on their devices.
- Users are affected on iOS 18.0.1 stable and iOS 18.1 beta.
- The issue is not seen on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, as well as on older iPhones.
The iPhone 16 Pro is Apple’s best iPhone yet, as it should be. In our iPhone 16 Pro review, we praised its performance and solid camera experience, and it’s as snappy as it should be. Unfortunately, a bug is affecting just how reliable the iPhone 16 Pro can be in everyday use, and it’s one that a few of us have experienced on our devices, too.
Macrumors pointed out that many users on Reddit, Apple’s Support Communities, and elsewhere are complaining that random restarts are affecting their experience. My colleague Mahmoud and I also experienced random reboots on our iPhone 16 Pro, but we chalked it up to the iOS 18.1 beta that we are running. As it turns out, the issue plagues iOS 18.0.1 (stable) and iOS 18.1 (beta) and occurs quite randomly, so there’s not much you can do to avoid the issue.
