I have an iPhone 16 (base model) and made the mistake of upgrading to iOS 26. Balatro is super laggy now almost all the time. If I force close all apps, including Balatro, then open it again, the lag will go away temporarily. But it comes back if I close the game and come back later, even with no other apps in the background. Is anybody else dealing with this or not dealing with it? It's horrible!
I've heard the phone can be laggy the first couple days, and it's day two and I'm still getting bad game lag. Hopefully it goes away on its own soon. Super annoyed with Apple right now. Hopefully this saves some fellow Balatro players!
