What happened to contact pictures showing in the messages app for the ordinary iPhone 6, did they change to the plus only again?
 
I'm not a big fan of the new multitask/app switcher. I keep accidentally swiping away apps I'm using that are further back, but can't really see them because they're blurred out.
It's a terrible design with very poor interaction. I REALLY hope they take a hint from the jailbreak that showed everything in more of a grid format so that you could quickly see what was open and jump to it without having to swipe around. They keep making this feature worse and worse!
 
And right after that he says "Kirk? Kirk, you're still alive, my old friend?"
Oh, yea. I'm still around, still driving that Cordoba. It's got great comfort at a most pleasant price. But, I suppose you have what you need with Genesis.
 
Nothing that I need or will use. Like Airdrop which nobody uses because it doesn't work and was never fixed, or Siri which a few uses because you look like a dork, or Homekit, or Healthkit or...

iOS8 was impressive though, lots of new useful features used by most people like voice messages or hand out
 
Battery settings - To go along with all the new battery features in iOS 9, there's a new dedicated "Battery" section in the Settings app, where Low Power Mode can be turned on. It also displays more detailed battery usage information that can be sorted by apps using the most and the least amount of power. With Low Power Mode, background activity, motion effects, and animated wallpapers are disabled. Battery information is also displayed in the Notification Center, for the Apple Watch, iOS devices, and some other connected devices like wireless headphones.

With low power mode you should have the option for it to kick in at a predefined level that you set , i.e. at 15% remaining it automatically turns on rather than having to go into the settings and manually turn it on.

I'm annoyed by their new search feature. I have an app (ESPN Fantasy Football) on my phone. So if I search for ESPN....no results. Fantasy? Nothing. Football? It finally shows up. I have three Xfinity apps and none show up in search. Now if I type in TV...they all show up. I don't get it. It worked fine in iOS 8. Weird.
 
Without a doubt this is one of the worst narrated videos I have ever seen. Couldn't get through the whole thing before I turned it off...
 
Regarding the Low Power Mode: If turned on, then your Autolock defaults to 30 seconds, and can't be changed. I usually had mine set to 5 minutes. Hard to read much and not have to keep unlocking the phone.
 
Hurrah they've fixed the keyboard! The biggest iOS 9 improvement, now you can tell which is caps lock on and off! Oh and the two finger scroll thing is excellent, at last I can get to and exact point in my text if I need to select or correct something, rather than a random point!
I like the recent used apps in the search screen too - something I suggested to Apple Ages ago!

IT's not supposed to be used normally until well, your on your last battery leg.
The screen is the biggest battery eater, so if your reading on screen something, you're killing your battery anyway and might as well not be in low power mode.
 
The news on the search page does not reflect the channels I have selected in the news app. I don't understand such nonsense.
