[Misc] iOS 11

[Bozza]

The best just got even better.

Incredible update.*

(* - It's currently installing, so I've not had a chance to use it yet, but I'm sure it will prove to be incredible.)

As long as you don't use apps that haven't been updated for over 2 years!

What happens if you do?

The great thing about Apple is that if the latest iOS is doesn't play well with your older device, you can simply uninstall it and go back to the older iOS. Right?

I'll probably just wait for 11.0.1, just in case there's any issues. Should be out in a week or two? Do have the new Xcode though, how exciting!

I'm waiting for 11.0.2

They don't work.

To see apps that will not run in iOS 11 go to “Settings > General > About > Applications”. If there are any apps in that list that you need to use then don't update. Probably won't be many.

Had it about a month now - love the changes

 

[ManxSeagull]

Had it on my iPad for about 2 months now (part of apple beta test programme); works really well. Some great new features for the iPad Pro

 

[Wozza]

Bye bye Flappy Bird. *sob*

Ad blocking is a good idea.

I thought there would be new emojis. Also is the animoji thingy only available on iPhone X ?

Can't read The Argus on it as "developer needs to update"
Mind you . . .

I have a mini iPad that is still running on iOS 9, because the newer iOS doesn't get sent to update old devices.

I had the iPhone 4s and it became really slow when iOS 8 was released. When I looked it up online, it was widely accepted that you shouldn't update past iOS 7, and if you did - well tough, you've just ruined your phone. In one of the later versions of iOS 9 it improved a bit, but still wasn't as good as it used to be. Not being able to go back to a version that worked better is ridiculous.

So far had to close and reopen the App Store about 15 times before it would fully load, its deleted all my music from my iPad while my iPod touch tries to do something (not sure what) every time I open it before saying there was a fault, then press cancel before I can use it.

Unimpressed.

 

[Timbo]

I do however like being able to finally access the numbers without changing the keyboard.

 

[Dorset Seagull]

It looks quite pretty. Not sure what new features it might have as I rarely use my iPad and iPhone for anything other than surfing and e mail so don’t know what features it already has! And I’m someone who was involved in the launch of the worlds first digital mobile phone network. Funnily enough they showed us all this stuff back then as the technology of the future and we thought it was just marketing b*llox

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

WiFi turns itself back on whenever it likes which I find annoying. New dashboard/layout looks crap with the little bunched bar at the bottom on an iPad. Seems a bit shit to me. I’m sure it won’t stop some people claiming that Apple have reinvented the wheel though.

 

[Goldstone1976]

Bye bye Flappy Bird. *sob*

And for this reason, I won't be updating the OS just yet.

 

[Acker79]

Haven't updated yet. Someone at work mentioned something about reports of apps disappearing when you upgrade. Is that one of those 'purple monkey dishwasher' things that started as 'some apps won't work because they are removing the 32-bit support' and evolved into 'iOS 11 deletes random apps!'?

IM an apple fan boy, this latest release has absolutely ****ed my iPhone. Roll on 11.1
