iOS 18.5 causes problems (with this commonly used iPhone app)

With iOS 18.5 not only new functions have come to your iPhone, there are also problems with a commonly used iPhone app. This app is about!

iOS 18.5

It has been a while since Apple released iOS 18.5. On May 12, iOS 18.4, with which the iPhone got a number of new functions. Apple introduced the pride backgrounds, brought the satellite function to the iPhone 13 and added a frame about AppleCare in the Settings app. Furthermore, with iOS 18.4, Apple mainly solved software errors, so more than thirty problems were solved on the iPhone.

Now it appears that not all software errors have been resolved, because the mail app has not been working properly since iOS 18.4. For many users, the mail app from the company shows a white screen. In other cases, the application does not respond or the mail app unexpectedly ends. These problems play with several generations of the iPhone, so it is probably an error in iOS 18.5.

It is striking that the problems with the mail app only now play, because iOS 18.5 was released more than a month ago. There is not yet an official solution for the software error, but there are (temporary) ways to use the Mail app anyway. Starting the iPhone is one of those temporary solutions, in some cases the application works again for a while.

Other options are the forced closing of the mail app, switching off autocorrect in the keyboard or reinstalling the application. These solutions are temporary with most users, but ensure that the mail app works again. That is for most users of short duration, due to the problems in iOS 18.4, the mail app then shows a white screen again.

No response from Apple

Apple has not yet responded to the problems that IOS 18.4 causes at the Mail app. It seems to be a software fault with many users, so that the company probably already works on a solution in the background. The next software version of iOS 18 is only expected mid -July, so there is a good chance that Apple will release a small update in the meantime. In that case the problems in iOS 18.5.1 are resolved.

In 2024, iOS 17.6 appeared on July 29, so it is expected that iOS 18.6 will be released around the same date or a little earlier. The problems with the Mail app in iOS 18.5 play with many users, which means that Apple probably chooses to release iOS 18.5.1 soon. Do you not want to miss any update of Apple?
