Lagging on certain iOS devices

Certain İOS devices lags while playing the game. Of course, I would understand this problem if it was lagging on low-end devices, but it is lagging on some high-end devices that it shouldn’t be laggy on. I have noticed this problem when I got my new iPad a year ago. The first game I played was Minecraft and I was suprised how laggy it was (iPad Air 3). It was even laggy on the lowest chunks. I have heard some people saying that the problem is on Apple’s end. But if it was on Apple’s end, the device would lag on other games which requires more power than Minecraft. The Feedback Site says that İOS devices higher than İOS 10 is compatible with Minecraft, but it is not the case.

Does the 'lag' that you describe only happen when joining a server?

No it happens when i am playing survival or pvping too. (It is not a little it is a lot.)

It’s something to do with the A12 Bionic or something because same issue on the Mini 5 render dragon hopefully fixes it

Same problem with iPad Air three. I just can’t imagine that my device should be struggling at even 12 block distance. I’ve contacted support twice with no answer. So frustrating.

The random stutters I used to get are now gone but everything is now “slower”

-Saves take up to 20-30 seconds to load

-Chunk loading is painfully slow, makes Elytra traveling basically impossible

-There’s some sort of sound delay, I had a creeper explode on me and didn’t hear the sounds until like a second of two after the explosion

Still an issue in 1.20. Crazy how my iPad with an M1 chip performs worse than my Core i5 computer despite being almost 4x more powerful.

Still an issue on 1.20.40 for a iPad Pro 11" 3rd gen.

Still an issue in 1.20.50. Tested today on a 2020 iPad Pro and was almost unplayable.

Still an issue in 1.20.60 (exact version: 1.20.62) for iPad 10th gen with an A14 chip.

Minecraft gets consistent lag spikes and lags whenever there’s more than one player in a world, especially when attacking each other.

It’s not an iPad storage issue. I played with 70% of my internal storage empty and it still lagged. However, emptying Minecraft’s storage alleviated the lag a little.
