So i purchased an iphone 13 a year ago and it has been super laggy since the last few months!
Scrolling through app drawer, search bar not loading, app crashes, camera app laggy especially in low light when it has to adjust timer, reddit scrolls, and even while switching tabs in safari!
Also, how can i forget, the most irritating experience of typing! oh god it is irritatingly laggy af!

My current storate is 120gb full out of 128 (even tried cleaning it, was lagging equally at some 50gb full as well), battery health is 87%. Please suggest me something, i am already loosing iphone vs pixel battle with my friends, the only thing i could stand for apart from video, is user experience but even it is lagging.

    I’d look at your storage and battery. Try offloading old photos to iCloud, there’s a setting to do so. Delete unused apps.

    Try a battery replacement. I did on my 13 that was 2 years old and having a simulator issue and it fixed it.

    iPhone 12 user here, My iPhone is almost full with 236/256GB used, I also have 87% Battery health and run iOS 17.1.1 and my phone runs smooth as fuck.

    I’d probably try connecting it to a charger and see if that fixes the issue. or try disabling background app refresh completely too just to see if that fixes it.
    Have you restarted the device? (normally shut off and back on again)
    Have you tried a hard restart?

    Same. I swear they do it on purpose when your phone is over a year old. Even browsing reddit has started to feel like my old shity android. Shits lame

    To be clear i think all phone manufacturers nerf their phones over time, not just apple.
