It also doesn't work on the 9.2.1 public beta as of now. But definitely worked till today.
ok, i figured it had to do with 9.3 since it worked for me about an hour before updating...
Thanks for this important tip, this saves my bothering with my iPad 4.
I've tried to download it on my phone 4 times now already. Gets about 50/75% and starts me all over again at "Download and Install" - sometimes without any error message at all. Not something I want to repeat on another device for nothing.

Err I guess you have an iPhone 4S instead of the IP4 you say above, iOS 9 is not supported on an iPhone 4.

I wanted to install this earlier today, couldn't because of space, now I won't even try, no nightshift on a 4S so why bother.
Man, what are you people doing? Reverting/Un-enrolling is like the easiest thing.
That's my build.
Sorry no, that was my crappy abbreviation of iPad 4. I will correct it now.
I can't say why...it's disappointing - I use my iPad at home during the evening mostly. I can't see it being too much of a performance hog. I dunno what gives.
At least my phone qualifies. Maybe I'll do the iPad anyway, while NightShift is the "big" new feature it's not the only one. I'll let the demand die down for a few days first though.
Likely simply because they developed it based on 64-bit libraries/frameworks (similar to content blocking in a sense).

It's weird how recently my AppStore downloads, my updates, my iCloud backups and Apple Music song downloads seem soooo slooow...
It's as if my ISP is throttling down the speed, because I tend to download a lot from Apple servers.
Every time I install an update OTA, be it my iPad or my iPhone, it takes forever to download and install.
I'm having the same problem, it used to say the name of the connected bluetooth device where the airplay button is, but it doesn't anymore.
That does indeed make sense. Thanks.
My downloads from Apple are always slow. I have a 25Mb connection and this 1.3GB update estimate is 45 mins...except now I'm on the 5th try with 1/3 complete and 13 mins to go; already been at it for 15-20 mins this round. A least it looks like the "download" part is only 50% of the progress bar so I might get it this time.
By comparison I downloaded a 4GB CentOS distro yesterday in under 30 mins from a mirror.

I notice much better performance on my iPad Air compared to 9.2. Especially the time between pressing an app and its opening is dramatically reduced.
Password protecting single apps is what has me most excited... and bummed that we aren't talking an OS-wide adoption of this. HOPEFULLY that is FINALLY coming.
Installed on my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6s Plus.
Seems vastly improved compared to <9.2.1. Especially on the iPad.
Like the new Night Shift feature too.

You'd think. But as I said it was a nightmare... even though I was removed per the instructions on Apples website and restored saved back up copies my iPhone I was still getting prompts and alerts to download the beta. My phone wouldn't d/l the any regular updates. Took 3 weeks and multiple support calls for the engineers to figure out why.
I had a 100Mb connection when I lived in Romania. Everything downloaded like it was there, locally, on my computer all along and the internet cost was like a six pack of Bud Light.
Except for Apple stuff.
Uploading my 40-ish GBs music library to iTunes Match, which I intentionally did there, since the connection was 100Mbps symmetrical, took over a day. So did the iCloud backups.
Apple need to step up the game in terms of cloud services, since those 16GB doohickeys, that seem to pass as legit premium phones, really need that cloud to rain down some fast love.
