Don't listen to anyone who says Performance is great and Battery life is insane! That's complete utter BS, wait a few days until their bias calms down and realize the performance is probably the same, and battery life is probably the same.
Yeah it cant be any better or different. In fact its probably worse and slower because that is Apples goal after-all.:rolleyes:

I am stuck in software update page...The icon is spinning and there is a message "Update Requested"...It has been 2 hours now...
 
I can without any shadow of a doubt confirm that 9.2 fixes some frame-rate issues. It's not limited to the 6s Plus, though. I did a before and after comparison with TWO freshly-rebooted iPad Air 2 devices. One with 9.1, and one with 9.2. The multitasking frames per second increase is huge between the two versions. After updating both to 9.2, they both have identical frame-rates when multitasking. The biggest frame-rate difference is just double-tapping the home button. The pan out/pan in animation is much smoother.

But again, I'm irritated you STILL can't configure the darn Safari sharing menu and have it actually save your layout of icons/shortcuts. Way too long this has been going on.

Apple Music now shows a mini phone icon with a check besides tracks and albums that are on your phone.

Icon has changed, I relive this was there before but now a mini icon.

Looks as if they are making room to show other icons in that area perhaps??

Also shows it on the album page, new iCloud download icon, when clicking album is added and then phone icon is with check it shown. When clicking that you can remove from phone or remove from music...

Added a shot of it downloading an album and the new mini icons as they download...

"Make available offline" changed to "download",
Making things much clearer with all these changes in Apple Music, awesome!

I think there's a difference between the MacRumors and MacRumors forums. MacRumors itself has a desktop version that is somewhat different than the mobile version. For forums a responsive design is used, which his basically the same design that adjusts and scales based on the size of the screen (and orientation in a sense).
Gotcha, and thanks! I wasn't differentiating, my bad! ☺️
 
For the music app playlists, instead of "make offline" it says "download" and it looks like it's actually downloading all songs in the playlist now
 
That's odd. Because I did it and it's fine. I've now got request DT site as the 2nd icon and it's been there for about a week and hasn't moved back to where it was.

I'm not saying I don't believe you, but it doesn't work on my 6 Plus, my 6s Plus, my wife's 6s, my iPad Air 2 or my wife's iPad Air 2.

I rearranged my icons a couple of weeks ago also and they're still the same on my 6+

I'm impressed with 9.2 so far. First of all, it DOES take away a large chunk of the lag on my iPhone 6 Plus.
More importantly, though, it solves one of my main issues with Apple Music: when you listened to - let's say, Zane Lowe's replay - you would get his audio like a podcast but you would not be able to add individual tracks to your favorites or playlists. You'd have to find that same song in another part of the app and manually add that to your playlists. Doing that during the course of the day was not feasible. Now when we listen to the replay we actually have each song being individually shown to us. So now I'm finally able to follow Zane Lowe's programme (I work when it's being aired live). I'm quite surprised at how many bugs Apple has squeezed on Apple Music alone with this update. It's now a mature product for me. Not nearly as frustrating as it was before. I'm actually satisfied with it. :)

This was broken back in iOS 8 last year, it was fixed and never broke again. iPhone 6Plus then, 6sPlus now. So, no idea what's up with your devices. All I can suggest is reset Safari settings perhaps?

When are we going to get the option to get notified when a playlist we follow gets updated?!

Yeah, got no idea.... there's no way to reset Safari that I can see. Just resetting history/website data.

Right, thought there was something else. Might try reset settings for the device, but it's really strange that all your devices have the same issue. This was really fixed at 8.1 or 8.2 or something last year. It was a major pain and then it was corrected finally. To have all your devices share it is suspicious.
