Even though technology has advanced a lot in the past decade, our smartphones are far from perfect. Even a marvelous Apple gadget like an iPhone or iPad can be slow, have trouble switching on, and suffer from poor battery life. Often, iOS users complain about common issues like disappearing keyboards, fast-draining battery, unreliable wi-fi and Bluetooth connectivity and a hanging interface that gets stuck every now and then. Thankfully, most of these common iOS bugs are easy to fix if you know how. Here are some quick fixes for some of the most common problems iPhone and iPad owners complain about.
HOW TO FIX QUICK BATTERY DRAIN ISSUE IN IOS
Poor battery life is a problem that many iPhone and iPad users complain about often. Thankfully, you can improve the battery life of your iOS device by disabling background apps from refreshing, changing location services and removing faulty apps.
Disabling background apps from refreshing
To turn OFF the Background App Refresh option in iOS, go to Settings, click on General and then select Background App Refresh. You can decide to disable this feature all together. However, just turning it off only for those apps that don’t need to be refreshed as frequently, should be enough.
Changing location services
To do this, go to Settings, click on Privacy and then select Location Services. Scroll down and choose System Services. While some of these options are meant to improve user’s experience, some features like Location-Based iAds, Popular Near Me and the Frequent Locations can actually quickly drain your battery life.
Removing faulty apps
Go to General > Usage > Battery Usage to find out which apps are eating away your battery life and consider removing them to dramatically improve the iOS batter life.
HOW TO FIX CONNECTIVITY ISSUE IN IOS
If you are encountering connectivity issues on your iPhone or iPad while trying connecting to Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or your cellular phone network, turn ON Airplane mode for 30 seconds, switch it OFF and try connecting again. Simply toggling the specific connection sometimes solves the problem.
If the above step doesn’t fix your issue, then try pairing the Bluetooth or WiFi device again. Go to Settings, click on General, select Reset, followed by Reset Network Settings.
HOW TO FIX SYNCING ISSUE IN IOS
Syncing problems on your iOS device can be very frustrating. But before attempting to troubleshoot, first ensure that your device is connected to the Internet (Wi-Fi or cellular).

To find out if there is a software update available, go to Settings, tap on General and select Software Update.
If syncing problems continue, remove the specific account from your device and add it back again. These accounts can be accessed in the Mail, Contacts, Calendars option in the device’s Settings menu. An advanced syncing tool for iOS devices is this free iPhone transfer software, with which you can easily sync data between iPhone, iPad, iPod and PC.
