Dammit Encounter some issues

1. Spotlight cannot make up its mind whether to work
2. Mail app become a blank page once.

Nearly 1 year & this is what Apple has to show.

This is what happends when a company loses focus on its core product.

Android itself is no saint either. 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.0.2, 5.1... Go over to the android forum and see people complain too about the OS update.

If stuffs like these mean apple have lost it's focus, then companies like samsung, LG etc would have lost it many yrs back OR along side apple.

Then how? Where to find a perfect phone with perfect updates?

Is there one in the first place???

quite true, no perfect phones but as of now, I find apple closest to perfection. as for Android, I prefer HTC

 

[Beh-Hawk]

is it just me? 8.3 seems faster?

7.12 was rock solid for me. May be for majority as well. IOS 8 seems to be more problematic. I remember they issue another OS update almost imediately as they were issues for most users.
No one can deny the subsequent updates are mainly for the watch. Stability is put on the back burner

Apple also said the next OS will focus on stability right. So Lost focus on OS 8.

And its not about Android or Apple.

Its about Apple OS

IT does feel faster on my ip5

iOS 7 had tons of bugs too.
But they fixed it in later iterations just like how they're fixing bugs with iOS 8.3.

As you said, you upgrade from iOS 7.1.2 to 8.3 straight right?
If that is so why are you saying iOS 8 is the most problematic? Did you even run iOS 8, 8.1, 8.2 etc?

So.. iOS 8 to you is the most problematic software because:

1. Spotlight cannot make up its mind whether to work
2. Mail app become a blank page once.

?

Apple didn't say that the next OS will focus on stability.

I suggest you hop over to Android OS to see how buggy theirs is and be grateful that Apple is trying their best to fix bugs on iOS and not take things for granted.

Nope. I said it was problematic way before I experience myself. I have mention it since....i dont know.... what 8.03?

Mainly what i read & my own experience being I never had to hold back an update until 8 came along.

I also expect different things from Apple & Android.

Granted Apple never 'said'. This is what i read

Your conclusion on OS8 is problematic base on your "own world thinking" just because OS7.12 is stable, and you pull the whole ship down with you.

And please, OS7 have ton of bugs too.

Not pulling down the ship. As if I could.

Although....... I do not mind having that power.

Just stating my user experience.

Was on 7.12. No issues.

Updated to 8.3 for not even a day. Experience issues.

Enough said

 

[PetPet]

I feel that you should give 8.3 more time rather than just simply judge it in a day.

You have spotlight & mail search issue?

 

[goodspeeds]

You have spotlight & mail search issue?

will check and keep u updated

 

[nez]

will check and keep u updated

Thanks.

Make sure to check a few times. At first will work but then subsequent times will not.
To clarify, only email messages fail to appear. Others like contacts or apps still do appear.

Call Apple, did a few suggested steps but still failed. She got a sample phone & also experience the same issue I am facing. It was a relieve to hear that.

Passed to a senior specialist & the final thing (apart from restore which I am against it as I will loss all the sms, email.....) is to do a hard restart.

It improve a little. Now even after it failed to work, trying it again suddenly will.

Customer Service is still top notch.

The OS... ever since 8, not really

I have to say I'm getting really annoyed by the frequent safari crashes I'm getting on 7.1.2. iPad Air with only one tab open crashes when I click some links on mac rumours. Went to test on my 5s also on 7.1.2 and the crash didn't occur. I'm curious why this is so, but I'm going to live with it until the latest iteration of iOS 8 sounds stable enough to update.

iPad 3 on 7.1.3. Take the update carrot or not? Later end up even more laggy how

Any1 has iPad 3?
