Apple Says Software Update to Fix iPhone 18 Pro Rebooting Bug Is Coming Next Week

Apple says iOS 27.0.1 will fix a bug that makes some iPhone 18 Pro models freeze and reboot after failed Face ID attempts.

  • Apple confirmed that a software update arriving early next week will resolve a bug causing Pro and Pro Max devices to freeze or reboot during Face authentication attempts.
  • Reports surfaced earlier in the week detailing how the issue occurred after failed Face authentication, leading some users to incorrectly assume the freezing and rebooting problems stemmed from a hardware defect.
  • Users discovered the bug by obscuring their features while accessing the Passwords app, with devices generating panic logs within the Analytics section of the Settings app before hard rebooting.
  • Customers who previously swapped their devices for new units at Apple stores can rest assured that a software patch eliminates the need for hardware replacements.
  • Apple simultaneously released watchOS 27.0.1 to address random restarts on Apple Watch Series and Ultra 4 devices, while the company continues rolling out iOS 27 with advanced Siri capabilities.
