iOS 12.1.2 Reportedly Causing Network Problems for New iPhone Users

Apple rolled out iOS 12.1.2 update to address an issue that affected cellular connectivity for some iPhone XR, iPhone XS, and iPhone XS Max users in Turkey. However, a report by Forbes has highlighted that instead of fixing the problem, the update has instead expanded the issue to all models of iPhone across the globe.

A growing number of iPhone owners from North America, South America, Europe, and Asia have taken to Twitter and other social media to report mobile data loss after upgrading to iOS 12.1.2.

Below are a few examples:
