I hope they release it soon. I just downgraded to 7.1.2 because Safari was crashing and the graphics were glitchy. At least they're still signing 7.1.2.

 

[LordQ]

I'd say Friday 26th.

"Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

Um, he's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious."

 

[EdgardasB]

Would be cool if today because there are serious issues, bugs but I doubt about today, so next week mostly

Could be today.

Last year on release day with the 5s and 5c Apple released iOS 7.0.1.

 

[Shaqq]

Hopefully today but we'll see. If it is today it wouldn't be until like 1 or 2 o'clock.

24th. 9:13 EST. That's when Tim gets situated at his desk and flips "the switch".

Serously people?

 

[Rich74]

Cant we have a poll?

 

[mattburley7]

I doubt it is today. iOS 8 has only been out for 2 days and then release a new version already. next week at the earliest (maybe).

I doubt it is today. iOS 8 has only been out for 2 days and then release a new version already. next week at the earliest (maybe).

The 8.0 build was finalized in mid-August (I want to say it has an August 19 build date IIRC) and given to the factory to install on the new iPhones shortly thereafter.

So Apple has already had roughly a month to find, code and test fixes for bugs. I'm sure a lot of things have already been addressed in that time and 8.0.1. is probably very close to being ready to go. Now exactly when they'll sign off on testing 8.0.1 and release it to the public is anyone's guess. It could be today, next week or next month.

I think Apple wants to get HealthKit fixed first. Releasing iOS 8 without it was an embarrassment but releasing an update that does't fix it will just add to it.

 

[MacAlien]

I hope they release it soon. I just downgraded to 7.1.2 because Safari was crashing and the graphics were glitchy. At least they're still signing 7.1.2.

I'm blind but how do you downgrade? Having so many issues but worse of all is the horrid battery consumption going on. Texting a friend for 20 minutes on and off not doing anything else and I've lost 15% of my battery

 

[mattburley7]

end of next week because apple said there would be an update to fix the health kit by the end of september and they only have the next week and 2 days after to fix it otherwise its october.

 

[Makale.Helvetia]

for me 25-26 september

 

[Burbulator]

4-6 weeks after initial release

 

[ajay96]

4-6 weeks after initial release

Seems like a long time lol

 

[engelke2010]

What about when the iPad gets refreshed?

 

[gmanist1000]

I'd say within a week or two after all the diagnostic information is sent for Apple to evaluate.

4-6 weeks after initial release

too long time.. they release 8.1 after 6 weeks maybe

 

[C DM]

too long time.. they release 8.1 after 6 weeks maybe

Took them about 6 months to release 7.1.

 

[Makale.Helvetia]

Took them about 6 months to release 7.1.

yes but ios 8 is less buggy than ios 7..that's my opinion
