I hesitated to download it right away. You took my trust away Apple, after 8.0.1.
The world weeps over the grave injustice you have been forced to endure
Still no weather information about today in Notification center.
Perhaps there's no weather where you are.....
LOL, for some reason, that reminded me of the snarky maitre'd in Ferris Beuller's Day Off, "I weep for the future."
Maybe when the iPad pro is released before September 2015. Apple has a weird schedule this year with updates compared to the last years (8.1, 8.2, 8.3).
Yeah it has in some parts. There was an update for Apple tv as well today.
For me it seemed to have fixed the AirPlay bug when your Apple TV is in sleep mode.
However ios still has the bug where the AirPlay menu is very small on iPads.

You do realize FaceTime and iMessage are the most secure mass market messaging options out there right?
Keep us posted. I jail broke my iPhone yesterday and if this does not fix wifi, then I have no reason to use it.
Performance is massively improved on my iPad 2 used for testing only. I think users of the older device who chose to put iOS 8 on will be happy with this update. Apple has done a great job for iPhone 4s and iPad 2 users with this update.
I am more reluctant than ever to try this; since Apple is no longer signing 7.1.2, I have no change to go back on our 2 iPad 2s.
Think I will wait for other folks to post.....

Here's the thing about idiots....
Most people aren't. Certainly I have no right to assume lack of intelligence on the part of anyone because they make a choice different from mine.
If you're reading this forum, then you have more than enough brain power to respect others' opinions as well as state your own in polite terms.
I do love a lively discussion with thoughtful people making points I haven't encountered for me to consider. I always learn a lot from that.
Let's do more of that and emote less.
Thanks for listening.

It's showing up on all devices. It's not just for the iPad 2 and iPhone 4s, there are bug fixes and stability improvements for all devices.
Some people had an issue where you had to wait 10+ seconds for the pop-up to come up after you clicked the 'x' to delete an app. I don't know about you but that's really annoying and you couldn't do anything except stare at a screen of jiggling icons until that pop-up. Does that sound annoying now? I know I sure was annoyed with it seeming like it wasn't responding to my touch whenever it happened to me.
Likely you have an iPhone 5 and your main microphone is broken. Siri only uses the main mic, while you can still make phone calls with the other two mics listening in. Only fix is replacement phone, mic only isn't considered fixable by Apple without logic board swap.
So far, the orientation bug seems to be better on my iPhone 6. I can't get it to stick to landscape and it switches fast, keyboard out or not. That alone makes this update worthwhile to me.
