Apple is gaining customers....
People complaining in forums like this aren't a representation of the real world. Actually we know for sure many are even making things up (not specifically speaking about you, but it's a matter of fact that some companies are hiring people for astroturfing), while others just like to sign up in forums like this just to start flames. Even a vocal minority of real complainers aren't representative for the silent big crowd of happy customers voting with their wallets.
And Apple is gaining customers....
iPad 2 Wallpaper - Scewed
On my iPad 2 on iOS 8.1.2, when the screen orientation is locked (via Control Center), and I open up and play a game which plays in landscape, when I then close the game, the wallpaper is stuck in landscape even though all the icons on the home screen are displaying is portrait:

You can see here that the default Apple wallpaper, which I am using, is stuck in landscape even though the icons are all showing in portrait. The only way to rectify this is to unlock the screen orientation, and turn the iPad into landscape (for it to 'grab' the wallpaper), and then back into portrait - so that the wallpaper then correctly displays back in portrait.
This bug happens 100% of the time whenever I play games on my iPad 2.

Ok, this is strange.
My ip6 has never shown the animations when updating apps, only new apps.
I have mentioned it several times on this board.
Anyway, today....it just started doing it. I updated some apps and it did it. I didn't restart the phone or do anything out of the ordinary. Strange.

Same thing happened to me today, phone rang but even opening Phone.app showed just a normal UI.
I am not sure if this is a bug either (or if it has been addressed), but sometimes when I am answering a call, I tend to trigger the quick-response option without knowing it (and I have to dismiss it to answer the call). Perhaps Apple could look at modifying it so it's not to eager to launch.
The two biggest bugs I deal with are the streaming video storage glitch on iPad and iCloud photo library storage glitch. If you stream iTunes video content, it stores a ghost file after you watch it. Tried restoring to new with only default apps. Logged in to iCloud and streamed a 4.5 gigabyte movie. Storage went down 4.5 gigabytes, while no apps or actual content was downloaded.
The iCloud photo library glitch "optimizes" your pictures like it says, but when you check your device usage, it doesn't match up with the total. When you plug into iTunes, it shows that the device is actually storing your entire library, in my case almost 3 gb versus the 500 my shown on the device itself. It's annoying because I need the space.

Letters overlapping contact photo on iMessage and Safari crashing has become a daily issue now........thank u Apple. Copy and paste don't alwasys work and the home button delay is irritating as hell. Switching between keyboard is pain in the a. If they don't have the time to polish the OS they should have given us the 2gb of ram.

I've seen another bug on my iPad 2, running iOS 8.1.2. (this is just a wifi only iPad)
Sometimes, I have noticed that the wifi icon (top left) is not present on the screen however, wifi STILL continues to work as I when I have noticed the icon missing, I purposely go to Safari and try to open a new webpage and it succeeds every time.
The only way to get the icon to re-appear is to bring up the Control Center, toggle wifi off and then back on again - the icon then indeed re-appears!

When playing an audio podcast and selecting sleep timer from podcast app - when current podcast ends. If the next podcast is a video it ignores the timer and keep playing.
Then if for some reason you Stop the video podcast and select to play another audio podcast keeps the timer.

Spotlight search works inconsistently on all my devices (iPhone 6 plus, iPad air, iPad mini 3).
Auto rotate is a bit wonky on my ) plus.

- 5s loses home wifi password intermittently
- safari copy/paste bug
- auto rotate inconsistent
I'm sure there are others, but these grab my attention because they are fairly annoying.

Safari when hitting the back button will start to load previous page, but revert back to current page. I have to do this twice or more before it actually takes me back a page.
Still have the iMessage issue of only taking one new photo while in messages. After the first photo, trying to take another in message app shows a black screen.
Safari likes to refresh constantly if I leave the app momentarily even with only one or two tabs open. It's ridiculous, especially when logged into something secure or trying to follow a tutorial. Ram crunch is awful, almost makes safari unusable sometimes.
I also hate when typing that the space bar is smaller and I tend to put periods in between each word instead. Very frustrating. I miss the old layout.
I'm sure there are more I'm forgetting. These are all on my 128GB 6 Plus.

Looked and didn't find this one ....
On my Mini 2 w/LTE (not an issues on my 6+)
When doing app updates, the last app that tries to download will give me a popup with "This item you tried to buy is no longer available."
Have tried restarting the device and that didn't help.
Tried restoring and that worked for a day.

I don't have a 5S anymore so I can't say about three first issue today, but I had it for three months and Wi-Fi was working flawlessly....
What do you mean with Safari copy/paste bug?
Auto rotate is working fine on both my iPad and iPhone 6: are you using a 6+ ?
Main phone is 5s. I have a 6 that i bought and will give to a family member but decided to keep the 5s.
This was somewhat fixed in 8.1.3:
Copy/paste bug, try to select and copy in a text entry box in safari and the options box doesn't stay on screen long enough to be selected. Disappears in the blink of an eye.
Autorotate was fixed in 8.1.3.
Wifi losing password on home router only still exists on 8.1.3.
I've just discovered the copy/paste bug. Did you left a feedback at Apple about that. I'm doing now.
I can't reproduce the Wi-Fi issue on any of my iDevices, using both my airport or a third party Wi-Fi router.
As far as the wifi issues go, I have a Netgear R8000 router. I think IOS is getting confused because of the 'smart connect' technology in the router. Losing the password does not happen on any other wifi network where I saved a password.
I haven't yet left feedback regarding the copy/paste safari issue. Will soon.
Many have left feedback about the copy/paste issue since the iOS 8.0 days, but it hasn't been fixed so far unfortunately.
It's happening only in safari.... It's not system wide.
I'm mostly using Mercury so I didn't know
It really bothers me that sometimes when I swipe down for the notification center and then swipe to see the other view, if I do it to fast it just changes home screen pages.
