It really comes down to what and how you use your phone. There is no right or wrong answer. Suffice to say if you're adventurous like me and can cope with bugs and workarounds then go ahead. If not watch this space for announcements and posts on updates then decide from there. Good luck! Sent

Hello, I have noticed a few bugs, as well as lots of good things with iOS8. There are a few bugs I've noticed, such as caller ID doesn't always work. However, if you swipe to the left when your phone rings, you can still tell who is calling. The other thing is that Siri likes to cut off a lot.

As others have said, it all comes down to what you can cope with. As a 5C, your phone itself will handle the update just fine without any real issues with sluggishness. I have not really seen any issues of note with SMS. Email is a bit buggy. I have had issues where I double tap on the reply

I am a bit like you Chris in that way, like to take the update and then see what the bugs are and then how they get resolved. They are not so bad as not to be able to use the device. - Original Message - From: christopher hallsworth challswor...@icloud.com To: OS X iOS Accessibility

There is also a bug with mms where it won't send. Sms works fine. also if you use hang outs it crashes. I reported this to both apple and google but looks like that might or might not be fixed when ios8.1 hits the shelves On Oct 13, 2014, at 7:09 AM, Aleeha Dudley blindcowgirl1...@gmail.com

Amadeus thinks I haven't bought a licence

Hi all - I bought Amadeus lite from the Apple Mac store a couple of months ago. When I tried to save a new recording today, I got a message telling me that I was using a demo of the app, and couldn’t save any further files without buying a licence. I don’t think I’ve ever had a licence for it

I agree but now I'm coming to terms with the fact some just do not want to update until the bugs are ironed out which is unnecessary but there you go. Each uses our own devices in different ways and think some are scared their habits will be taken away with the update which isn't true at all.
