Not all iOS updates are stable and the latest to run into a problem is Apple's latest 12.1.2 update which is reportedly causing problems for iPhone users.

According to Mashable, the iOS 12.1.2 iOS update which was rolled out last week, is bricking iPhones by cutting off cellular data. Users have complained on Twitter about their iPhones' inability to connect to cellular data after installing the latest iOS update.

Apple's support team has asked users to restart and update carrier settings. Some users have even tried hard resetting their iPhone and re-inserting the SIM card, but to no avail.
