After 8.0.1, I think I'll wait a little bit and see how this goes...

In the UK, downloaded and installed on both my iPhone 6+ and iPad Air.

Seems fine at the moment, Touch ID works fine and I have cellular reception.

 

[BruiserB]

127MB OTA for iP6+

Downloading now.

Maybe I can ApplePay for lunch at McDonald's!

 

[evilrt]

installing now

 

[chrismatic]

Really looking forward to seeing some refined animations and improved UI performance/responsiveness.

Downloading.

 

[anshuvorty]

It's up! Get downloading people!

 

[mrhoaf]

I wonder how many people will go to Walgreens/McDonald's today just for Apple Pay.

How come it's around 100MB for other people? Are you running a beta?

Mine is also 1.9gb on iPhone 6. running the beta.

Scared, 8.0.2 made me wipe my phone and re-install fresh ios 8.

 

[chrisdazzo]

1.9GB for my iPhone 6.

Same here. Going a little slow, you darn early adopters!

Edit: previously running the beta.

 

[AppleWarMachine]

Bring on Pay, this is why I upgraded to a 6 from a 5s

 

[noobinator]

Why is the file larger if I'm on a beta (2.2gb!)? 6 Plus

 

[Scott90]

what if I am on 8.1 beta2. Should I do a Restore or can I simply choose Update in iTunes?

I'm assuming it doesn't show up OTA?

 

[Wooderson00]

Downloading!

I know I am walking to McDonalds after class today to try it out!

Yes. I have updated my post to reflect this.

 

[Branskins]

These patch notes are nicely detailed!

 

[jmh600cbr]

for those of you planning to jailbreak remember not to do this OTA

 

[ricktat]

Hurry and test so can download

 

[buddybd]

Downloading, 126MB Iphone 6 Verizon.

 

[j-a-x]

I hate McDonalds but I might walk to the one next to my office later just to try it out. Maybe I'll just get a drink or something.

 

[SMIDG3T]

Yes. I have updated my post to reflect this.

OK, thanks. I thought we couldn't update OTA from a beta. Obviously we can.

 

[Delorean2006]

126mb for me on my iPhone 6

Please stop.

Downloaded pretty quick. Preparing update now. Didn't see any release notes about Touch ID, but I hope it works a lot better than it did with 8.0.2 on my Plus. Worked maybe 20% of the time.
