iOS 10 is a total disgrace

I really cant believe how bad it is. Freezing, crashing, the most obnoxious development is that autocorrect is completely broken for me and typing has become a total chore. Im really amazed how far things have fallen. Quality used to be a gold standard for apple stuff. Jobs is rolling in his grave.
 
It doesn't feel that user friendly to me. Just 3 weeks ago I learned about how holding down your message before you send it can create effects.


Nothing explained this to me beforehand. And I hate the drawing a picture text thing. . it's not really a picture just a heart or a pulse. WTF do I do
 
iOS has just gotten worse and more bloated since 7 (the big redesign). Older bugs than a piece of fucking amber.
 
Sierra is a mess. watch OS 3 is a joke.

But iOS is Apple's only software that's actually working the way it's supposed to.

Apple is horrible at explaining / teaching new features. Even redesigned websites will show you how to use new features. Apple doesn't even lift a finger.
 
I just use iPad air and find it ok.

I remembered tonight I can have 2 aps split screen but realized I don't ghink I have a use for that feature
 
I haven't found it buggy - other than having iTunes issues - but usability has certainly taken a step back in more ways than it's moved forward.

Yeah the drawing thing is super lame. A significant amount of time ill be messing with my phone and i have some bullshit squiggly line in the imessage box to send to someone
 
I tried holding off as much as I could on installing it, until this evening when all of a sudden my iPhone 6S wouldn't charge. We even tried 2 different sets of adapters and cleaned the heck out of everything. Then I decided to install iOS 10 and all of a sudden the thing can charge again! Fuck you Apple.
 
I don't like the way they removed swipe to unlock,I don't like the new notification screen and I don't like the way the control panel thing (swipe up) now has a separate page for music controls. So yeah, iOS 10 is annoying but I don't think it's an absolute failure or anything.

The split screen feature only shines on one of those big screen iPad Pros.
 
The mail app constantly crashes on my iPad 4. I know it's old hardware but they decided to update it and now a basic function doesn't work most of the time.
 
Changes to the lock screen are probably the only problem I have with iOS10.

Pressing home twice is the worst.

Actually this also happens for me (Air 2).. but I think it happen in 9 also.
 
works flawlessly here

I never press it twice. Weird. Lift the phone up and it shows the lock screen. press it once and hold fingerprint on it to unlock.
 
I haven't had any stability problems but yeah it's bad.

The keyboard is somehow trash in Safari. Like if it pick an apostrophe it won't modechange back to letters. And it thinks the 's' after the apostrophe in a possessive is a letter, so it auto-"corrects" to an 'a'. I only have this problem in Safari. It's infuriating.

The new features are all useless or dumb. Thumbs down.
 
Oh and how about those "classic favorites" like:

- Opening the Music app to a completely solid white screen
- Having all the tab previews in Safari be completely wrong, showing what you were looking at five hours ago
- Totally inaccurate highlighting completely misaligned with the text itself

I've had the middle one once or twice, can't say I've ever had the others.

Funny, iOS 10 is the first time highlighting has actually worked properly for me. I can adjust the start and stop points and have it select the correct text. The end-point drag-function has never worked reliably for me in older versions.
 
I've never had a single serious issue with iOS 10. I never really understand threads like this. Guess I'm lucky huh.

On my iPad sometimes the 123 button doesn't do anything when I tap it, and I have to rotate the screen once for it to work again. That's all I got.
 
The new notifications are clunky and often unresponsive, and they ruined the alarm. Otherwise it's... fine, I guess. Except for the music app, which is bad.
 
I can't back my phone up to my laptop anymore. I assume it's because the OS on my laptop is outdated, but it's also so old I doubt it can run the newest OS. I suppose Apple is trying to force people like me to buy a new computer; haha, not on my wages I ain't!!
 
I don't have any freezing or crashing issues.

Never been a big fan of the autocorrect/keyboard, but I've felt that way since before iOS 10.
 
Yeah I'm having a fair number of issues with iOS 10 on my 7+

1. Safari locks up sometimes and I can't quit out of it or force close it. It takes about two minutes of being hung until the phone does a soft reboot on its own.

2. Sometimes the camera doesn't work. I launch the camera app and it just goes to a black screen. This has triggered a soft reboot, too.

Both of these happen around once or twice a week.
 
How the fuck you gonna remove the headphone port then fuckup bluetooth w/ your iOS 10 release on third party bluetooth devices.

Still having issues I never had on iOS 9 w/ that shit.
 
Haven't had much trouble on my Air 2, though when I click on links in gmail it no longer opens in chrome it opens in Safari and I can't find the option to change it back. Did I imagine that feature or am I just missing a setting somewhere.
 
Oh yeah, remember how great it was in iOS9 when you'd plug in your headphones and the lock screen would automatically pop up something from the music or podcast apps fort you top stay playing immediately? That was great! Top bad it's gone for absolutely no reason.
 
I hate that the symbols keyboard doesn't always switch back to the text keyboard after a comma. That is some bullshit.

It's so damn annoying.

I don't really like the new notifications on the lock screen, or the notification center. Really don't like the new apple music app. Don't like the look of anything that they changed.

I agree OP, this is the first iOS that I really felt like it feels like a downgrade from the last experience wise.

? That still works for me.
 
The only bug I've had in iOS 10 that wasn't already fixed in 10.1.1 is that sometimes when I have rotation lock on, the home screen will still flip to landscape and then obey the lock so I have to turn the lock off and on again to get back to the portrait view I wanted.

Other than that, not having any problems, and after a bit of getting used to the new lock screen I like it way more than iOS 9.
 
Using an iPad and besides notifications and pressing the home button twice to see the home screen, I think iOS10 is just fine. I never had a problem with it.
