When you restart a phone with touch id and try to log in using your fingerprint, it automatically asks you for your passcode. No swiping required.

Personally I'd mostly be concerned with security updates.
Got a tip for us?

...and here we go with the deliberate obsolescence. My wife's ipad mini 1 is now going to drift into uselessness as the apps eventually demand iOS 10 or later. This is now a big issue for me with Apple kit. I don't mind if not all the new OS features work on a slower processor/architecture but app designers eventually exclude the old kit.
There is nothing fundamentally wrong with the original ipad mini other than we have committed the heinous crime of not wasting money upgrading it. Branch your code, write more efficient code and stop forcing my hand you lazy, money-grabbing g.ts (I wouldn't mind but Sonos don't even charge for their iPad app.....it must be a conspiracy with Apple)..........

The big Android OEMs like Samsung and LG roll out the monthly security patches even if they don't update the OS
The iPad mini 2 (and the iPad mini 3) both use the same 64 bit A7 chip as the 5s and iPad Air. I agree that Apple will most likely drop support for the iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, and the iPad 4th gen next year.My guess is that they will drop the iPhone 5 and 5c but leave the 5s in iOS 11. 64-bit will be the cutoff (so no iPad mini 2 or 4th gen-iPad).

So the uptake is only about 300x as fast as Android, not 365x.
I know a LOT of people who did the update before the fix and only one of the 10 had the problem.
Stop trying to hype this. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the note 7 debacle, I would rate this 1.
Might not be debating for too much longer as Apple will stop signing iOS 9 sometime in the near future (aside from some devices that can't support iOS 10).
I keep checking, and my iPads show there isn't an update available. Hmm...

Depending on the iPad, you might want to stay where you are...

Anybody try the upgrade on a 4S?
iOS 10 requires iPhone 5, iPad 4, iPod Touch version 6. And some iPad mini version.
Seriously. All they talk about is the less than two hour window where some, not all, not even most, not even a majority, of devices got bricked. It shouldn't have happened, but it's over now. iOS 10 is almost universally praised, and none of those people can utter a single word about anything except a few phones being temporarily bricked.
Yet they remain silent or come to the defense of Samsung when their exploding phones are mentioned... and then they have the nerve to complain about Apple fans on a website dedicated to Apple and Apple products!
It's like intentionally and repeatedly bashing your head into a brick wall and complaining about how much it hurts.
has anyone noticed that the camera app does not temporarily freeze anymore when initiating on iOS10?
You won't be able to install iOS 9 on any device that can run iOS 10. You can only install iOS 9 on the iPhone 4s, iPad 2 and iPad 3, and iPod Touch 5th gen.
There is something fishy about that graph. I can understand why iOS10 usage would be going up and down through the pre-release cycle, but why is the "older" line almost the mirror image of iOS10 usage, while the iOS9 line is unaffected? There are only 4 ways for this to happen: 1) iOS9 & 10 usage both increase/decrease at the same time, while iOS8 or older stays static, or 2) everyone testing is alternating between using iOS10 and iOS8 or older, or 3) the graph is wrong, or 4) the data is being manipulated.
My wife is still on iOS7, and I got in enough trouble for updating her phone from iOS6 that I won't touch it again
Just updated my 6. No issues. App launch seems a bit faster. Things seem smooth and I love the fact that I can delete unused Apple apps! Happy with iOS 10 so far.
Uselss info of the day:
Evidently the transition of going out of an app to home screen has changed.
Fading out of the app takes a fraction of a second longer and morphing appears to be further elongated from app screen to corresponding icon (at least for stock apps).
Was able to grab this after about 15 screen grab attempts
I also think the zoomed factor has increased, ie, the amount of zoom of the icons when heading to default home screen position

Apple's latest operating system, iOS 10, is seeing quicker adoption rates than iOS 9 saw during the same adoption period last year, according to data collected by Mixpanel. As of 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, 24 hours after iOS 10 was released, the OS is installed on 14.45 percent of devices.
Comparatively, 24 hours after iOS 9 was released, it was installed on 12.60 percent of devices, also based on data gathered from Mixpanel. That's also similar to iOS 8 adoption rates in 2014, suggesting iOS 10 is slightly outpacing both updates, likely due to the wide range of new features introduced.
iOS 10 saw some early installation issues that have undoubtedly made people weary of downloading the update and have slowed adoption rates.
Shortly after iOS 10 was released, users began seeing their installations fail, requiring them to connect to a computer to repair the installation or restore via iTunes. Apple fixed the issue within an hour, but not before it impacted hundreds.
Since then, iOS 10 has installed smoothly and we've seen few bug reports, suggesting it's stable and safe to download. iOS 10 adoption will likely jump up as we hit the weekend, as people will have time to do the installation, and with the iPhone 7 releasing on Friday, there will be millions of new devices running the operating system.
With iOS 10 adoption on the rise, the number of devices running iOS 9 is steadily falling. iOS 9 is now installed on 81.09 percent of devices. 4.46 percent of devices continue to run iOS 8 or earlier.
iOS 10 is a free update that's available for the iPhone 5 and later, the iPad mini 2 and later, the iPad 4 and later, and the 6th generation iPod touch.

Android adoption rate is PITIFUL, that's one reason I'm switching back to an iPhone. 8 months to get an update? No thanks. Google needs to resolve that idiocy.
regarding battery remarks, I have a thought for discussion.
maybe raise to wake might be a contributing factor.
phones might be waking up during walking if in an upright position, eg pocket
you can test this on your own outside a pocket evidently
hold the phone in an upright position while it is in sleep and rock it back and forward.
while it mostly holds the sleep state in equal motion intervals, if these are differentiated the phone wakes, even if for a second.
thoughts?

Smooth upgrade on two iPhones and two ipads. iOS 10 is speedy and responsive. Much better than iOS 9. Also getting improved battery life, and love the one-handed friendly push to unlock. Don't miss slide to unlock at all!

This seems really risky. You lose a phone when you least expect it and I don't know about you, but I have too much info on my phone that I need to secure. Even just your friend's addresses and phone numbers are a responsibility that warrants you to lock down your phone.

would definitely love if I could widget lightroom somehow and access it from lock screen
I only just realised it was free, and that only through LR (and other third party camera apps) you can shoot raw.
force touching the LR icon presents you with the add widget option, but when pressing it, I don't see this widget elsewhere other than in siri suggestions

Perhaps. What is most annoying is that while retaining an old OS continues to allow email, web browsing, calendar/contacts syncing, its the 3rd party apps that gradually stop working reducing the convenience/utility of an old pad.
