Ever since Apple released iOS 13 to the public, it has been plagued with various issues which prompted the Cupertino brand to release quickfire updates. While the updates quashed certain bugs, new ones have cropped up which is causing problems for users no matter what device they use.
As per a report by Forbes, iPhones are struggling to be phones as there appears to be a serious issue which can force users to handle their phones when driving. The report states, “I have been contacted by iPhone owners who have upgraded to iOS 13 and found they can barely make phone calls due to continual call dropping. Look online and the reports are spreading. Moreover, they seem to have gotten worse with the latest iOS 13.1.2 update. “
@AppleSupport dropping calls like crazy after iOS 13 update. Really bad after 13.1.2 update. Call will drop after 30 seconds to a minute. I use phone for business...not a good impression. iPhone X

@AppleSupport Frequent no signal issue after updating to iOS 13.1.2 on my iPhone SE. I missed a lot of important business calls! The issue can’t be solved just by switching to airplane mode. It needs complete restart. Fix it

I knew why I never wanted to update my iPhone. All calls are dropping after a few seconds. Can you please release a new update or let us go back to the previous version @AppleSupport? iPhone xR, iOS 13.1.2

@AppleSupport Ever since the latest IOS 13.1.2 I have been experiencing dropped calls on virtually every call made, the conversation all of a sudden sounds like it’s buffering and then it cuts. Pls help

Hey Siri, you screwed up my phone when you went to IOS 13.1.2. Now all my calls drop after 5 minutes, even on calls for work. #weak @applesupport

Apart from the countless Tweets, a user mentioned the issue on Apple Communities after which five pages of replies followed. This seems to be a viscous circle of bug-filed iOS 13 releases — it forces quick updates which in turn cause new problems.
The report adds that the beta version of iOS 13.2 is also littered with this issue and they add, “This suggests Apple has bigger fires to fight and, while that tells everything you need to know about why you should avoid iOS 13 at all costs right now, it means iPhones failing to be phones could continue for some time.”
