Apps and touchscreen issues after iOS 26.1 update
Updated to iOs 26.1 (23B85) and now several apps are no longer working. Can I fix this? Also finding that the touchscreen is not quite the same either. Need to double tap in order to open some apps.
Question marked as
First try a forced restart, if that doesn't work reinstall the app or see if there is an updated version of the app that works with the new iOS. If that doesn't work contact the app developer for help with their software.
Also, Apple just released iOS 26.2 today, try updating the iOS.
Try a forced restart.
