What is everyones general opinion of the app stores performance on an iPhone?
Back when I had a 3GS the app store would always load instantly and it was an enjoyable experience. These days I find it incredibly slow to load at times (over wifi). Very often clicking a different section such as Featured, or Updates will bring up a pop up saying it cannot connect to the app store. When I switch the wifi off and back on it begins to work again. This routine is beginning to get very tiresome!
I asked a friend of mine who says she gets the same problem with her iPod Touch and it happens with her on 3 different wifi connections (ruling out a dodgy router).
I have also noticed a similar issue when browsing, at a random point it will no longer be able to browse, but sliding the wifi option off and then on again resolves the issue.
I have tried everything from a hard reset, reset network settings, restore the phone to new, you name it Ive tried it. it just seems to be 'how it is'.
Now very often when people stick up for Apple they use the term "because it just works", however, in the case of the app store, Id have to disagree.
