QUOTE To be fair, much of the focus on iOS 7 was on getting developers up to speed on the design overhaul; iOS 8, on the other hand, is all about adding functionality to the iPhone and iPad. As a result, you're not going to see many significant changes to the layout or design of iOS this time around. In fact, you may not even be able to tell the difference between iOS 7 and 8 unless you're looking closely. But don't let looks deceive you: There's a lot of new stuff under the hood. - Engadget reviewNice article to read on iOS8 |

QUOTE(teikwei @ Sep 20 2014, 02:08 PM) anyone know how to receive call from ipad by using hands off?? iPhone and iPad needs to sign in with the same Apple ID. Both iPad and iPhone need to turn on WiFi and Bluetooth. Try on the smaller features first like hand off with mail or safari to see if it's working. If it's not working, go to settings > iclouds and sign out and sign in back again. Do for both iPad and iPhone. Once that's done, try again hand off with mail or safari just to make sure. If everything is ok, then you can try calling your iPhone, give it a while for iPad to pick it up. It will be using the facetime app for taking the call. |

Most people thinks that iOS 8 brings design changes but it's more to added functionality. Just think of it as if you are getting a new engine and interior to an existing car. From a design point, it wouldn't be a good move to change design again from iOS 7 to iOS 8 when they already had an overhaul last year.
I'm pretty satisfied with my iPhone 5s and iPad Air running iOS 8 albeit few kinks with it. It does feels like still in beta but stable enough for a daily driver. Battery improves on my 5s and Air. Apps works fine except for FB, they really need to fix few bugs for iOS 8. Some apps are still not optimized for iOS 8, hence few unwanted things here and there.

Actually I'm more disappointed with app developer. It's not like apple release iOS 8 last few weeks to all inclusive the dev. They have like till Beta 5 to make their app compatible but the updates just not rolling out fast enough. This hinder the experience of iOS 8.

QUOTE(dannykhoo17 @ Sep 26 2014, 08:18 PM) iphone5s notification cant push back too. it's either a bug or apps developer haven't update their apps. if its stuck/cant push it back then press home button 1 time will solve your problem. I'm using 5s and on 8.0.2. I don't have that problem. I usually restore from iTunes when major update is available. Only do OTA for minor update. |

QUOTE(decavalera @ Oct 1 2014, 12:27 PM) I just noticed another problem when using the default music apps yesterday. When i browse an artist & select any song to play, then to browse another different artist, it will still show exactly the same view (yeah the artist name & songs too) as the previous artist. Even though the 1st artist had for eg 5 songs, the 2nd artist had only 1 song, it will still apprear same as the 1st one. But if i select any songs, it will play the right song from the 2nd artist. Weird huh.. My album art and other music app related is fine with me. Maybe those of you that encounter those bugs should file a bug report to Apple. |

QUOTE(adibhaniff @ Oct 5 2014, 03:51 PM) I've attached a screenshot. Mine is only showing album art. No artist specific pic. I will try to re-sync all my music again. Hopefully it will solve my issue. What do you mean by artist specific pictures? Pictures of the artist on the cover album? Ahhh okay now I understand. I think it's your info tagging that not adequate? This post has been edited by frozzbyte: Oct 5 2014, 04:58 PM |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Oct 21 2014, 07:31 AM) Both are same here . If you see 4g means you are on LTE network. Updated my ip6+ this morning to ios8.1 and don't seem to see any obvious changes yet. One problematic app AstroToGo still unable to run. The very slight lag in UI transition is gone now. It is now very much smoother vs 8.02. AstroToGo? Or is it Astro On The Go? Maybe it's not yet updated to 6/6+. If You mean Astro On The Go app, then it's running fine on both iPhone 5s and iPad Air |

If I'm not mistaken, you can kick out from recovery from an app (windows and mac) but I can't remember what was it called

Already updated to 8.2 few minutes after the keynote ended. 400++mb for OTA update but only only takes 5 minutes or so for me. Seems more snappy and new Apple Watch app available.
