What's the issue you are having?
I can't change the incoming email sound. its stuck on Sherwood Forest. Even though it shows that Ive selected another tone it will always play Sherwood Forest for some reason. Im about to just restore the phone because Ive tried everything under the sun to try and fix it.
 
There is a difference in a critical bug that causes security issues or the device does not work, vs lag and aesthetics. But that still doesn't change the fact that no software will ever be perfect. It is impossible to make bug-free software. That hasn't changed in the last 20 years and won't change in the next 20 years. There will always be an unexpected consequence when you have millions of lines of code. I'm not defending Apple here, as I said in a previous post. Just stating the facts of software complexity.
Don't you understand, logical fallacies (bug-free software) can always be overcome if you just try hard enough!:rolleyes:

I hope that in WWDC, instead of iOS 10, they present iOS 9.5; the first one without any bugs.

I mean, they've been doing iOS for over 9 years and every version still has very basic functionality bugs.

no public beta today it would seem unless they decide after the usual time. Seems 4:30 est one was released in the 9.x betas tho. So maybe it can happen. Doubtful for Friday tho.

Honestly? Was it even worth posting that? You would never get software released if that is your conditions. Can you give me one example of an application / software that has no bugs?

People just need to get over it, accepting it is not going to be perfect, because it's impossible to be perfect. That way you are going to be significantly less disappointed and can get on with your life.
 
Before you try to correct someone, you should make sure you're right. "There were", referring to there were buggy releases during the Forstall era is correct. They were buggy releases would make no sense.

Thank you. :apple:

9.3 and 9.3.1 are virtually identical except for fixing the booking.com-related link bug. You can tell by how rather small the update is. Your experience must be due to other factors, not due to that update per se.



…why?
It's fine that grammar is not your specialty, since I'm pretty sure it's against the rules to correct grammar anyway. And if you really think iOS was more stable back then we must've had very different experiences.

Rules? Mac Rumors? ok. ;)

If you tell someone about grammar at least get it right.

Because reasons

Thank you. :apple:
 
Sure would be nice if Apple would release a version of iOS 9 that would run as well on my iPad3 as iOS 6 once did. My poor 2012 iPad has slowed to a crawl because of the OS. It's happened slowly so it was almost unnoticeable, but it's very noticeable now that my daughter is using the iPad for school. She comes to me in tears sometimes over how slow it is to load sites in Safari. It never was like this under iOS 6. But to go back means to lose app compatibility which she needs for school. So the only recourse is to buy a new iPad. Apple probably didn't do that on purpose but that's the result. I love new features with each OS update, but the fact remains that if you buy a fabulous new Apple iOS device now, 4 years hence it will become as slow as a snail. That shouldn't be. Each OS update should bring with it not only new features and fixes, but more compact and faster running code too. Apple just isn't spending enough time of code optimization. If they did, the speed of the latest Apple hardware would likely be twice as fast in perceptible performance than now.

What sites are loading that slow? Content blocker seems a first thing to check.
 
Because software quality has been flushed down the toilet. They can't get it right and they keep pushing patches and patches and betas hoping to get it right. At the expense of users frustrations.

Really? I think you should switch to Windows 10 Phone for a month - you'll be SCREAMING to come back to iOS, LMAO!
