Post iOS 8 bugs here (updated)

This seems to be connected with issues with the Accelerometer, iOS8 has issues internally informing apps how the phone is being held. What you are seeing is the keyboard has been informed but messages has not.
I have issues when on a stepping & running machines.
1) I select a track in iTunes to play in my hand (portrait)
2) I select the Mio App exercise app (portrait only app)
3) I rest my 5s on the stepping machine in landscape orientation
4) When I switch back to iTunes app (in landscape) the iOS8 does not notify iTunes to change to landscape. I have to pickup my 5s and shake it so iTunes changes to landscape
This is really annoying.
This was not a problem in iOS7 and other releases.
Safari freezing then crashing every time I enter a few bugs into this thread, but only before I can hit submit.
This is like the 4th time in a week, I swear iOS knows I'm talking about it.
----------
I use copy/paste frequently, but it still thinks I want to paste a comment about potato chips that I wrote about two weeks ago.
- It pastes the last thing I copied, or
- It pastes the thing I copied before that, or
- It pastes the potato chip comment
Really weird bug.

Buggy iPhone while charging (iPhone 6+)
I ping pointed my problem with the touchscreen. While charging the iPhone always starts glitching. It will copy and paste text randomly, move the blinking cursor to another position then come back to the original position, the auto correct will not work properly and sometimes it will press the "Go back/Arrow" button.
I'm not sure if it's iOS8 or just the iPhone. It is definitely not the charger because I've tried with the original and a third party charger.
Is anyone else is having the same problem? I think I can take it back to AT&T.

Music app retains songs I no longer have synced. It'll keep a few songs from an album, but I know I've removed the album in question from the iTunes Playlist that I use to sync music to my iPhone.
Photos app can't handle the 13,000+ photos I have in iPhoto. The Photos app lags big time with that many photos.

Music won't sync at all. Seems to be a rather widespread issue. The sync either stalls on "Waiting for Change to be Applied", adds an arbitrary amount of storage to my "Other" section on the bar below, finishes sync without a single song transferred, or only transfers a random amount of purchased music.
So since I haven't updated my 6 to 8.0.2 but my device pre-downloaded it, will apple send the new 8.2 to download or will I have to install 8.0.2 before I can download 8.2?
Thanks all

In addition to overall abysmal performance by Safari (hangs, slow response), I have noticed that even after a web page "settles down", I still see the loading wheel spinning away. And it won't stop, even if I visit another page. The only way to kill the spinning wheel is to terminate the Safari app and start over. I have no clue what is going on, but feel this must be contributing to the overall slowness of the browser.
Where in settings can you find the date/time of the last iCloud back up?
It was in settings under iCloud before. I just noticed I can't find it.

...unfortunately its now been buried deeply away!!!
Find it here:
Settings > iCloud > Storage > Manage Storage. Then, you will see the various iCloud backs ups ( I see one for my iPhone 6 and one for my iPad 2). Select the back up you want and then on the next screen, it will display when the last back up was.
THIS a million times. It's absolutely frustrating and I'd return the phone in a second if it weren't so goddamn beautiful, lol. I'm hoping there will be a fix in 8.1 :|.

Good Lord, I would never have found that on my own!! Thank you!! Talk about buried!
Iv got a new one.
This is on my 5s 8.0.2
I can't uses siri to set a location based reminders.
Siri tells me that I need to go into location services and turn reminders on. So I do that, and as soon as I ask siri to set a reminder again, it will switch itself back off and she says the same thing again, that it needs to be turned on.
I can't get it to stay on!

On my retina iPad mini with 8.0.2 the volume icon will flash on the center of the screen as if the volume was being muted and unmuted very rapidly. This happens intermittently but flashes several times in a row. Now, this morning it happened and the iPad crashed and restarted twice. Any ideas?
Still have the camera bug since iOS6.
When the battery is around 35% or lower, and trying to use the camera the phone will shut off.

Sounds like it could be something with your device/battery.

Hopefully Apple will release 8.1 before that and you'll get that.
But, yes, when a newer update comes out you should be offered whatever that update is to upgrade to.
I haven't read all the pages so please forgive me if this has been posted before.
When trying to post to a forum (both here and on others) if I try to type the contraction for did not (can't type it because it hangs every single time - this is my third try). It hangs Safari completely such that I have to actually go to multitasking and force quit the app.
Another I have found is about half the time I try to copy/paste from another page or app the copy/paste popup won't stay up long enough for me to use it. I actually do this a lot when shopping on line, I copy/paste my credit card number. This has been really hit and miss.
One other small thing, when placing my finger on a webpage to scroll sometimes about half the page turns white. And it's translucent because I can just barely read the text under it.
Again, if posted earlier please forgive me.
Edit: I'm running 8.0.2 on a iPad Air
