I keep losing audio controls on my lock screen - not just navigation, even volume. Alarms have also started making no sound in the morning. I've just picked up the habit of restarting my phone before I go to bed at night. I am just shocked that so many existing features got broken in odd ways.

To be fair, I'm having a similar problem with my Android. The calendar background service seems to get stuck after a few days and stops showing notifications. I now have a daily reminder to convert all important appointments into Slack reminders because these actually work all the time.

I get this too. I thought it was because my phone is older (iphone 6). Since the upgrade my phone has been AWFUL and is beginning to cause more frustration than it's worth. I also subscribe to Apple Music and it is driving me crazy. Since the upgrade it randomly starts over with my songs in alphabetical order and not on shuffle so even if I'm ok with it I have to touch my phone to shuffle them. All that worked just fine in before the upgrade. Now if I don't restart the phone frequently it breaks a couple times a week. My phone is bought and paid for, but when the time comes for a new one if this is still happening I am likely going Android and using google play for music. I am beyond annoyed with it. I've always used iphones since smart phones came out, but I have nothing against android and if this keeps up I'm gone. At that point I'll keep using Androids until it does something incredibly annoying and causes me to look elsewhere. Apple is very close to losing a customer for generations of phones to come if they don't figure things out. Edited to add: also now my song list has random songs grayed out. I haven't taken time to look into it but this was not an issue before I upgraded to 11. The same song will play fine if it naturally gets queued or I search for it, but touch it to play... nope!

  I’ve had the opposite problem for years in Apple Music: it’s impossible to turn shuffle _off_. It keeps getting re-enabled randomly, and the UI for finding the setting required a Google search. Maybe caused by some weird interaction with my car head unit (Nissan/Infiniti) or something because it always reports shuffle as off even when it is on!
