Working fine for me too. And same thing for the Wi-Fi.
There are a few bugs in iOS 8.1.3, but nothing very important.
iOS 8.2 release this Monday, with the capability built in to sign up for future iOS betas. iOS 8.3 public beta announced at the Spring Forward event the following Monday. My thoughts on it all anyway.
If I never see another story with "emoji skin tone modifiers" in it, it will be too soon. And yes, I am white (but use yellow, red and blue emoji).
Why do you care enough to even mention emoji's let alone make it the topic of you statement if you don't want to see anymore stories with emoji's?
Or is it just the tone modifier that upsets you so much? just wondering.
The odd time I get it as well. The other day, I was out the back having a cold one. Internet was poor. The iPhones can see my router at the front of my home, and my extender, about halfway, so I told it to use extender, but it was not there. Odd. Hard restarted iPhone and there it was. Never an issue before.
Because with all the issues with iOS and OS X I can't believe the ridiculous number of stories about making sure that there are emoji that match a person's actual skin color. I hate discrimination as much as anybody, but runaway political correctness makes me crazy. Not everything is a conspiracy to keep minorities down.
If that's all Apple has to offer in terms of new features then someone needs to be fired.
Does anyone else get annoyed when people post, "it doesn't work for me, iOS 8 is unusable!" .. sounds familiar?
In one case, you have people posting that they have a problem. This is completely optional but can be helpful to the cause.
In the other case, you have people who have no problem reading about people with problems (usually in threads that are titled as such) and complaining that they have no problems thus everyone should, I suspect, keep quiet about their problems. That you have no problems changes nothing of the fact that people do have problems. Perhaps you don't use the same device, or use it in the same way, or don't consider certain things problems (like iOS 7.0 being slow as molasses yet some people said it was just 'fine').
People that have problems with their expensive devices want solutions, thus they have reason discuss. I can't think much of reasons why someone who is bothered by this and has no problems of their own would then proceed to read them.
Honestly, that you made the comparison at all is really something.
Good points. In my case, nothing has changed, so it appears to be Apple. I don't iften bother switching to my extender, so it's possibly since last update.
But I won't go anti apple on it. The issues overall are widely documented, Apple will I assume be working to resolve, so that's fine with me. My rMBP has changed too. It often starts with Safari on, and no internet. It arrives maybe 10 to 15 seconds later. It used to be there on boot up. It takes many many seconds to connect to my WDTV now as well, related probably.again, I assume this will be fixed. Off course I am not discounting those with issues that are very inconvenient. Let's hope it goes back to it just works before long
iOS 8.3 beta 2 runs pretty nice on the iPhone 5S. I just wish Apple would optimize the animations, because I do get an occasional stutter. Scrolling through home screens and menus could be smoother, too.
The GMT issues is not an iOS bug, it is a Gmail bug. Change your default calendar from Gmail to something else (iCloud works for me) and it will fix it.
I hope that they don't work on iOS9 for this summer, and instead just do an incremental update called iOS8.5. With the quick new versions every year, the bugs just add up and we get little refinements. Their current model is just not sustainable from a consumer usability perspective.
They seemingly rewrote a lot of networking stuff to fit continuity in and I think that some routers that are slightly off standard or spec have had issues with the changes (sometimes companies have to fix their software/OS/drivers to handle slightly off third party equipments
. Often they rewrite network stacks they make them closer to the standard... But, the real world as a whole doesn't seem to respect standards, or drifts from them with time. Do you have the same issue with all routers?
