带有Touch ID 的 iPhone（例如(Touch ID—such)iPhone 8 和 iPhone SE (2020)）以状态栏上的旋转轮图标的形式表示网络活动。它显示在Wi-Fi和蜂窝(Cellular)网络指示器旁边，当互联网上没有任何事情发生时往往会消失。
但很少有流氓应用程序进程和与连接相关的问题会导致图标无限期卡住。这通常最终会对 iPhone 的电池寿命产生不利影响(adversely impacting the iPhone’s battery life)。
如果您的 iPhone 在菜单栏上显示一个恒定的旋转轮图标，那么下面的故障排除提示和修复列表应该可以帮助您解决问题。
1. 开启/关闭飞行模式
短暂关闭 iPhone 上的 Wi-Fi 和蜂窝网络无线电可以解决互联网连接的小问题。您可以通过turning Airplane Mode ON/OFF来做到这一点。
(Swipe)从屏幕底部向上滑动以调出控制中心(Control Center)。然后，点击飞行模式(Airplane Mode)图标并等待 10 秒钟，然后再次点击它。
如果旋转轮图标继续保留在 iPhone 的菜单栏上，请继续进行其余修复。
2.禁用后台应用刷新
一些应用程序在后台通过互联网进行自我更新。这会在 iPhone 的状态栏上触发一个不断旋转的轮子图标。
尝试禁用iPhone 上的后台应用刷新功能。(Background App Refresh functionality)为此，请转到Settings > Privacy > Background App Refresh > Background App Refresh并选择Off。
如果最终解决了卡住的旋转轮图标问题，请选择Wi-Fi 和蜂窝数据(Wi-Fi & Cellular Data)以重新启用后台应用刷新(Background App Refresh)。然后，返回上一个屏幕并切换各个后台应用刷新(Background App Refresh)开关以隔离有问题的应用。
3.强制退出所有应用程序
强制退出 iPhone 上所有打开的应用程序可能有助于摆脱任何卡住的网络请求。双击(Double-click)iPhone 的Home按钮以打开应用程序切换器。然后，将每个应用程序卡拖到屏幕的顶部边缘以将其从内存中强制退出。
4. 检查网络相关问题
参差不齐的互联网连接也会导致 iPhone 菜单栏上出现一个不断旋转的轮子图标。由于您已经切换了Airplane Mode ON/OFF，您可以执行以下几项其他操作：
5.激活和取消Siri
Siri的错误实例是持续旋转轮图标问题的另一个原因。
一种不寻常的解决方法是激活和取消Siri。按住(Press)主屏幕(Home )按钮以调用Siri。然后，再次按主页按钮取消。(Home )尝试几次后，旋转的圆圈应该会消失。
6.重启iPhone
(Did)纺车图标消失了吗？如果没有，您应该尝试重新启动您的 iPhone。这会清除系统内存并解决 iOS 中的大多数意外问题。
首先按住侧面(Side )按钮。然后，将电源(Power )图标向右拖动以关闭设备。
等待(Wait)30 秒，然后再次按住侧面(Side )按钮以重新启动设备。
7. 停用 Siri
如果激活和取消Siri没有帮助，您可能需要尝试停用 iPhone 上的功能。前往“设置”(Settings ) > “ Siri 和搜索”并禁用“(Siri & Search)听”“嘿”Siri(Listen for “Hey” Siri)旁边的开关，然后按“Siri 侧边按钮”(Press Side Button for Siri)。
如果您通过不断旋转的轮子图标解决了问题，则必须应用待处理的系统软件更新（更多内容见下文）以修补Siri的任何已知错误。
8. 停用听写
iPhone 的听写(Dictation)功能通过将特定的语音输入（例如与搜索相关的输入）中继到Apple服务器来处理它们。但是，这可能会出现故障并导致不断旋转的圆圈。
检查停用听写是否有帮助。为此，请转到Settings > General > Keyboard并关闭Enable Dictation旁边的开关。
9. 更新 iPhone
更新您的 iPhone 通常会解决各种与系统相关的错误，这些错误会导致 iPhone 上出现纺车图标。
前往“设置”(Settings ) > “通用(General )” > “软件更新”(Software Update )，然后点击“下载并安装(Download and Install)”或“立即安装”以立即(Install Now)将待处理的更新应用到 iOS。
10. 更新应用
除了 iOS，您还必须为任何第三方应用程序安装可用更新。这应该可以解决导致网络相关进程在您的 iPhone 上失控的已知问题。
长按App Store图标并选择更新(Updates)。然后，执行向下滑动手势以扫描新的应用程序更新。然后点击(Follow)全部更新(Update All)以应用所有待处理的应用程序更新。
11. 禁用 iPhone 分析
您的 iPhone 会将使用情况统计信息传输给Apple，以改进各种服务，例如Siri和听写(Dictation)。但这也可能导致旋转轮图标停留在 iPhone 的菜单栏上。
转到设置(Settings )>隐私(Privacy )>跟踪(Tracking)。然后，向下滚动并选择Analytics and Improvements。随后关闭“分析(Analytics)和改进(Improvements)”屏幕中的所有开关。
12.撤销应用跟踪权限
应用程序(Apps)可以通过网络和其他应用程序跟踪您。这也可能导致 iPhone 状态栏上不断旋转的圆圈。撤销(Revoke)跟踪权限，看看是否有帮助。
转到“设置”(Settings ) > “隐私(Privacy )” > “跟踪(Tracking )” ，然后关闭任何有权在 iPhone 上跟踪您的应用旁边的所有开关。
13. 重置 iPhone
如果您仍然看到一个持续旋转的轮子图标，您应该重置您的 iPhone 以解决损坏的设置(reset your iPhone to resolve corrupt settings)。转到“设置”(Settings ) > “常规(General )” > “重置(Reset )”，然后按以下顺序完成每个重置选项：
重置网络设置(Reset Network Settings)：将网络设置恢复为默认值。
重置所有设置(Reset All Settings)：将 iPhone 上的所有网络和系统相关设置恢复为默认设置。
擦除所有内容和设置(Erase All Content and Settings)：将您的 iPhone 恢复为出厂默认设置。事先在 Mac 或 PC 上创建(Create)iCloud 或Finder/iTunes backup on a Mac or PC以便您可以取回数据。
联系苹果
(Did)上述修复都没有帮助吗？如果 iPhone 的状态栏上继续显示旋转的轮子图标，则您可能正在查看硬件有缺陷的设备。联系 Apple(Contact Apple)进行维修或更换。
Constant Spinning Wheel Icon in the Menu Bar on iPhone? 13 Ways to Fix
iPhones with Touch ID—such as the iPhonе 8 аnd iPhone SE (2020)—denote network activity in the form of a spinning wheel icon on the status bar. It shows up next to the Wi-Fi аnd Cellular indicators and tends to disаppear when nothing is happening over the internet.
But rarely, rogue app processes and connectivity-related issues can cause the icon to remain stuck indefinitely. That usually ends up adversely impacting the iPhone’s battery life.
If your iPhone displays a constant spinning wheel icon on the menu bar, the list of troubleshooting tips and fixes below should help you sort things out.
1. Toggle Airplane Mode ON/OFF
Shutting down the Wi-Fi and Cellular radios on your iPhone briefly can resolve minor issues with internet connectivity. You can do that by turning Airplane Mode ON/OFF.
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to bring up the Control Center. Then, tap the Airplane Mode icon and wait for 10 seconds before tapping it again.
If the spinning wheel icon continues to remain on the iPhone’s menu bar, move on with the rest of the fixes.
2. Disable Background App Refresh
Some apps update themselves over the internet in the background. That can trigger a constant spinning wheel icon on the iPhone’s status bar.
Try disabling the Background App Refresh functionality on your iPhone. To do that, head over to Settings > Privacy > Background App Refresh > Background App Refresh and select Off.
If that ended up fixing the stuck spinning wheel icon issue, select Wi-Fi & Cellular Data to re-enable Background App Refresh. Then, go back to the previous screen and toggle the individual Background App Refresh switches to isolate problematic apps.
3. Force-Quit All Apps
Force-quitting all open apps on the iPhone may help get rid of any stuck network requests. Double-click the iPhone’s Home button to open the app switcher. Then, drag each app card to the screen’s top-edge to force-quit it from memory.
4. Check for Network-Related Issues
Spotty internet connectivity also results in a constant spinning wheel icon on the iPhone’s menu bar. Since you’ve already toggled Airplane Mode ON/OFF, here are several other things that you can do:
5. Activate and Cancel Siri
A bugged-out instance of Siri is another reason for the constant spinning wheel icon issue.
An unusual way to fix that is to activate and cancel Siri. Press and hold the Home button to invoke Siri. Then, press the Home button again to cancel. The spinning circle should disappear after trying that out a couple of times.
6. Restart iPhone
Did the spinning wheel icon go away? If not, you should try restarting your iPhone. That flushes out the system memory and resolves most unexpected issues in iOS.
Start by holding down the Side button. Then, drag the Power icon to the right to shut down the device.
Wait for 30 seconds before holding the Side button again to boot the device back up.
7. Deactivate Siri
If activating and canceling Siri didn’t help, you may want to try deactivating the functionality on your iPhone. Go to Settings > Siri & Search and disable the switches next to Listen for “Hey” Siri and Press Side Button for Siri.
If you sorted out the issue with the constantly spinning wheel icon, you must apply pending system software updates (more on that below) to patch out any known bugs with Siri.
8. Deactivate Dictation
The iPhone’s Dictation functionality processes specific voice inputs (such as those related to searches) by relaying them to the Apple servers. However, that can glitch out and result in a constantly spinning circle.
Check if deactivating Dictation can help. To do that, head over to Settings > General > Keyboard and turn off the switch next to Enable Dictation.
9. Update iPhone
Updating your iPhone usually resolves various system-related bugs that cause the spinning wheel icon to appear on the iPhone.
Go to Settings > General > Software Update and tap Download and Install or Install Now to apply pending updates to iOS immediately.
10. Update Apps
iOS aside, you must also install available updates to any third-party apps. That should fix known issues causing network-related processes to go rogue on your iPhone.
Long-press the App Store icon and select Updates. Then, perform a swipe-down gesture to scan for new app updates. Follow by tapping Update All to apply all pending app updates.
11. Disable iPhone Analytics
Your iPhone transmits usage statistics to Apple to improve various services such as Siri and Dictation. But that can also cause the spinning wheel icon to remain stuck on the iPhone’s menu bar.
Go to Settings > Privacy > Tracking. Then, scroll down and select Analytics and Improvements. Follow by turning off all switches within the Analytics and Improvements screen.
12. Revoke App Tracking Permissions
Apps can track you across the web and other apps. That can also result in a constantly spinning circle on the iPhone’s status bar. Revoke tracking permissions and see if that helps.
Go to Settings > Privacy > Tracking and turn off all switches next to any apps that have the permission to track you on your iPhone.
13. Reset iPhone
If you still see a constant spinning wheel icon, you should reset your iPhone to resolve corrupt settings. Go to Settings > General > Reset and work your way through each of the reset options in the following order:
Reset Network Settings: Reverts network settings to their defaults.
Reset All Settings: Reverts all network and system-related settings on the iPhone to their defaults.
Erase All Content and Settings: Reverts your iPhone to factory defaults. Create an iCloud or Finder/iTunes backup on a Mac or PC beforehand so that you can get your data back.
Contact Apple
Did none of the fixes above help? If the spinning wheel icon continues to show up on your iPhone’s status bar, you’re likely looking at a device with defective hardware. Contact Apple for repairs or a replacement.
