yeah, stretch it out with your fingers.
Twitch app was updated?
Pinch to zoom. Any bigger than that and it would block half the screen.

I kind of wish in portrait mode you could zoom in enough to take over the entire bottom third of the screen, but I can understand why they wouldn't want people to do that.

It's still in last place of the pre-set albums for me, weird.
Wow...
Thanks. I'm getting the 6S tomorrow and will be restoring from backup. I hope this behaviour doesn't carry across
Is that new? I did that earlier today. FaceTime video, pressed the home button to minimise, ran a Speedtest and then back to the call. Didn't this always happen?
I noticed this on my iPad the other day. Fantastic.

iOS 9 App Thinning delayed due to bug
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2015/0...isabled-for-now-will-return-in-future-update/
Basically, if you restored an iPhone 5 backup on one of those new shiny 6S's, for example, it would restore the iPhone 5 version of the assets instead of properly downloading the 6S versions

Is there a way to edit the proactive screen? I don't want any of that crap over there!

The new Podcasts app sucks big time.
I think you can remove all parts from Spotlight search in settings. It will still occupy that left-most space on the home screen tho.
Again with the damn bugs, its never-ending. So with the mobile data app toggle still bugged, I've now encountered a bug whereby apps take a billion years to actually download and install. In order to circumvent the issue I have to continually pause and unpause the app in hope it somehow triggers a proper install.
This is by far the worst operating system I've ever experienced. Definitely moving away from Apple and onto Android or Windows.

Wipe and start fresh.
I guess that what it will come to, but I have been hearing others trying it and it continues to bug out. Here is hoping it doesn't for me.

If you move to Windows, there's a good chance those apps won't even be available to download. That's the problem I had when I wanted to buy a Windows phone.

What is a good battery benchmark app? Coming from ios the device gives me 4 to 6 hours of use and it really sucks

Good call on Purify! Love it!
It's the first thing Apple or anyone else will tell you for good reason. All phones, be it Android, Apple or presumably Windows have a chance of things going wrong with updates. A fresh install will usually take care of any serious issues.

Certainly sucks that you're having problems, but moving away from iOS is no sure way to ensure that you never experience problems with updates again. Android has had it's problem with memory leaks and some people experiencing terrible battery life after updates. Not to mentions that if you don't go Nexus you might not see the latest updates until months after they are released. Unfortunately no updating process is perfect.
Anyone used safari blocker? How is it?

Ok, decide to make a move. Was able to sell my old ipad 2 for 200$ , and got a Ipad Air 2 !! Jesus, the difference is pretty awesome. So happy there is no more tab reloading with safari!! I was about to make a move for the surface, but after trying out, i found out that the touch was not as good as the ipad. I was having difficulty pressing the page number on here on neogaf.
So, so far i just love it! Now Apple better not screw that up and make future ios unstable like it did with the ipad 2. Crossing my finger im good for while now

I just remembered my biggest aesthetic-related gripe and it obviously hasn't changed with iOS9.
What is it with that RIDICULOUS bar at the bottom of the home screen and how it's like just partly transparent. It looks awful and has always looked awful. It cuts off part of your wallpaper as well. Fuck. The bottom apps should be separated either by a thin line or you should have some kind of option to get rid of it all and just have the four apps sit there like other apps. I want to see my entire wallpaper, not this weird, slightly-transparent bullshit.

I use slide over all the time by sliding over Messages. It's less of a disruption that way when surfing or reading flipboard.

Slideover will be more useful when more messaging clients support it. Until then it's kind of meh.

Kind of a random question, but what Twitter client do you all use?
I'm specifically looking for one with the functionality to select text (individual words, not the whole tweet) and use the built-in dictionary. Any suggestions?

It could be great but very few of my apps are compatible. Even apps that are clearly perfect for it.
Gotta wait, I guess!

Indeed, Apple might just be able to make iPad the go to productive work handheld device.
I love this update because it fixed the thing I hated the most about ios8, Safari constant tab reloading. It has improved my iPhone 6 Plus experience in a big way. The only time Safari might reload a tab is if I'm browsing Instagram for a long period. Makes me want to wait for next year phone update, instead of the 6S this year.

I noticed this too. I just switched to a 6s+ where it's even better, but iOS9 on my regular 6+ cut down on tab reloading by a lot. I was super surprised
