Thanks for this. Last week, Adam Mills wrote an informative article on Got to Be Mobile for iPhone 5 users. He writes:
“There is one big issue that is still affecting my iPhone 5 and it’s an issue that really fouls up the entire iOS 8.1 experience. The speed of my iPhone 5 took a hit after the arrival of iOS 8.1 and it still hasn’t recovered, two weeks later. It feels clunky, it feels slow, and it’s simply not as crisp as iOS 8.0.2, iOS 8.0 or iOS 7.1.2. It’s frustrating. “If you’re not experiencing any horrible bugs inside iOS 8.0.2 or lower, wait for iOS 8.1.1 to come out. It’s currently in the beta program but it’s expected to deliver fixes and performance enhancements for older devices. In other words, it has the potential to clean up these speed issues and deliver high quality performance in other areas at the same time.” His experience convinced me as an iPhone 5 owner to wait on upgrading from my current iOS 7.06. His sentiments likely apply to the 5C as well. The entire review of iOS 8.1 for iPhone 5 users can be found at: http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/11/04/ios-8-1-on-iphone-5-worth-installing/ Kelly On 11/7/14, Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Listers, > > > > I just found a brief article on 9to5Mac about Apple having released a Beta > version of iOS 8.1.1 to developers.
