iOS 11

I wasn't on 11 but the last couple of days I've had wonky issues like messenger crashing along with a few things.

Decided to download 11 just now and I see I have 3 hours to go before downloading finishes???

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Mine only took a few minutes, but I did it in the middle of the night (insomnia is good for some things).

upgrade went without a hitch. The graphics seems brighter and bigger.

Fixed the issue I had with messenger crashing. Had to update several apps afterwards but it looks like things are working fine.

My phone is much slower, issues with mail, calendar and messaging. Should have waited a couple weeks

Zero issues so far with my 6

Updated the wife’s SE last night and it’s been slightly flaky. Have already done a hard reset to see if that helps.

I have an iPhone 7. Haven't really explored new features yet, but like the bigger and cleaner text in contacts, etc. No problems so far at all. Also updated the iPad.

One annoyance noted: Bluetooth seems to get turned back on each time you restart the phone.

I don’t need BT so I keep it toggled off. Have noticed several times now where if I reboot phone or it dies and I need to charge from dead, BT seems to turn itself back on each time.

Interesting about the Bluetooth. I just cycled my phone and sure as shit bluetooth came on. I never use it so I keep it to off. Thats silly.

I looks like if you go into Settings and turn it off and not just “off” in the swipe up quick access panel, it stays off.

Thanks for thr tip. Just cycled it off in settings and it stays off. Good riddance.

Updated my iPad Air, using iTunes, went very smooth with no issues (and backed up to my desktop). Turned off anything new I do not use, the update did turn on bluetooth, so I turned that back off. It tried pushing the cloud on me and had to say no a couple times.

I ran the update for my 5s. Works well enough. Looks nice. Runs smooth.
However I've had a few app crashes, the phone gets hot while charging and the battery life has suffered.

32 bit apps won't work if that's the case. Matter of fact, I've read some 32 bit apps could brick the phone.

Bought new Ipad Pro today and did the latest update. Took 1 hour, no issues so far.

So far, I like the "type to Siri" function the most. Lots of other good features too, including the already mentioned configurable Control Panel.

How does one know if an app is 32 bit?

Getting closer to upgrade but I don't have enough space on my phone to upgrade without going through I tunes.

How to check which apps won’t work with iOS 11 before you upgrade

I have an iPhone 6 and updated to iOS11 and have several important paid for apps that no longer work until they are fixed. All simple apps work fine. I wish I had not updated so quickly.

After about 2 days, the battery usage has pretty much returned to normal on my iPhone 5s.
