Anyone Else Stuck on "Indexing in Progress" for a Week on iOS 27 Beta 1?

Hello everyone,

I am using an iPhone 11 Pro running iOS 27 Beta 1.

Since installing the beta, the message "Indexing in Progress" has remained active for approximately 7 days and never completes.

I have already tried:

  • Restarting the iPhone multiple times
  • Keeping the device connected to power overnight
  • Keeping Wi-Fi enabled
  • Disabling Low Power Mode
  • Ensuring enough free storage space

Despite trying all of these steps, the indexing process is still stuck and does not finish.

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue on iOS 27 Beta 1?

At this point, I believe this may be a bug affecting Spotlight/Search indexing.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Yes, I’m in the exact same situation.

Thanks for the post, so it has been indexing since you have installed it on Monday? Any chance you can provide the team the sysdiagnose of that device on a bug?

Before attempting anything might clear the device's current state, please submit a bug report via the Feedback Assistant app.

Once you open the bug report, please post the FB number here for my reference.

I am having the same issue. And my PipelineCompleteness is stuck at 94%.

Over 24h

Thanks to all of you that has reported the issue. It's a known issue the team is working on handling it and they'll let you know when there is a fix in place on Feedback Assistant.

Thanks to all of you for your patience on this. It's very appreciated.

@DTS Engineer Do you know if this was addressed in the new beta? On Beta 2 restart the indexing dialog has disappeared.

@parkerapple Thanks for confirming that beta 2 has fixed the issue.

Thanks

@DTS Engineer Is it fixed?

IN console, I am still seeing Spotlight errors:

default 10:41:35.190872-0700 Preferences ### Connection error 0x79dac49080 Connection invalid for com.apple.spotlightknowledged debug 10:41:35.190890-0700 Preferences PipelineCompleteness: not showing, showOverallPercentage: false

@parkerapple in beta 2 you are getting those in the console? Would you be able to produce a sysdiagnose to capture that and submit it to a new bug?

Once you open the bug report, please post the FB number here for my reference.

Hi. Yes I am seeing these in Console for the iPhone: 

Full indexing failed: SettingsHost.SettingsSearchIndexer.IndexingError.indexingIncomplete(indexingType: "Index Suggested Items", domainsProcessed: 152, domainsIncomplete: 1, severeIssueCount: 1, importantIssueCount: 0)


Connection error 0x7608117300 Connection invalid for com.apple.spotlightknowledged

PipelineCompleteness: not showing, showOverallPercentage: false

Here is the ticket: FB23358063

@parkerapple Thanks for the time and providing this. Routing it into the correct team to take a look at that console output.
