Something isn't right. Either try to reset some settings to see if that would cure it or perhaps even reinstall.
Got a tip for us?

That happens on my 6 as well. Auto rotate just seems extremely buggy at the moment.
I haven't been all around the system yet but 8.2 seems to be a significant improvement for me. My 6+ is a lot smoother and although there are still bugs a plenty, at least things have moved forwards in terms of the UI. I haven't encountered a screen freeze or any real lag to speak of since updating. Safari is still a mess (spinning data wheel and copy/paste issues), but I'm pleased overall. This is the first update of iOS8 for me that has actually felt like an 'update' and now my 6+ doesn't act like some kind of beta device. Hopefully these remaining pesky bugs will be obliterated next time around.
There is definitely some odd stuff in 8.2 that wasn't in the last beta. The Safari data wheel was not a problem. 8.2, despite the lack of something fixed in the release notes, has some changes that improve performance.
One thing I noticed, all of my TV Shows were combined into one big folder. I opened my Video app to a giant clusterf#@ked mess!!
So I saw on the Apple Support site an idea of adding a name to the director field in Sorting. It only partially worked for me. Now my Seasons are separated, but there are no names on the Series folders.
I know most people wouldn't care about this, but I'm just trying to sort it back out.

Tried to make a purchase on a web site using Safari and Safari kept crashing ("has a problem"). Switched to Chrome and it worked fine. Unfortunately because of that I couldn't use my regular email address since it was associated with the crashed attempt. Basically Safari's crashes screwed up an order I made.
This was on an iPad Air 2.

Safari is now much better on my iPad2. However, this has nothing to do with the update, embedded ads has it appears been the culprit, especially MacRumours.
I have blocked all ads and seen a much improved performance boost. I don't like having to take this type of action but my iPad had become almost unusable.

Hmmmm..... I was reporting a bug but I'm not sure it's really a bug or just something happened once.
I was updating a couple of apps on my iPhone and I noticed the small increasing circle wasn't.... increasing anymore. Apps were updated, but the circle remained empty until it became the "open" button again.
I was thinking about a bug of iOS 8.2 (first time I noticed something like that) but when I tried on my iPad air, same iOS 8.2 installation, it worked as usual, with the same three apps.
I'll check again on my iPhone next time.

Embedded ads are the norm on tinterwebs and Safari should work with the internet, not the other way around. So did you use a proxy ad blocker? Admittedly if that's the problem then it should work, but we shouldn't have to employ workarounds for such a basic and essential part of smartphone life.
I see a spinning data wheel on most if not all websites I frequently visit, and this cannot be a bug with the majority of websites. It must be a bug within Safari. It's a shame because most of 8.2 is an improvement and I can't fathom why they didn't fix Safari.
Your assumption is correct. Yes Safari should work. However, that was simply not the case once I upgraded to iOS 8 on my iPad 2.
I either had to use the workaround or stop using the iPad as Apple don't appear to be interested in users problems.
TL;DR
In the Music app, on the Albums tab, albums that are compilations show "Unknown Artist" instead of "Various Artists" for the artist, unless the Album Artist tag is explicitly set as, "Various Artists".
I'm pretty sure this is new to 8.2.
EDIT: In the Videos app, movie art isn't always shown for certain files, just a grey box containing a greyer widescreen TV and the filename. iTunes has no problem displaying the same art. I think this one came in around 8.1.3.
I'm also experiencing something like clborden's mess, though only with certain TV shows:

Steps to reproduce? I don't get this in my testing.

Seems like an important pop-up to display and make the user aware.This iPad hasn't been backed up for 3 weeks.
A POP UP
right in the middle of watching netflix. Frozen until cleared.
wtf apple!
I know.
Has Apple acknowledged that safari shouldn't constantly pause audio from other apps? And when it does this, it removed the app from control center so you have to manually switch apps to play again. It's the most obnoxious thing about iOS 8. By far. For me, at least.
New one with a 6+ on 8.2 ..... for me
Open stock Mail and display the list of Mailboxes.
Pull down to refresh all.
If Mail is in the task list, it works. If not it won't pull down till I first swipe up.
This is not 100% but has been happening all to frequently for me.
