Is it out?

Don't normally update straight away. Prefer to give it a bit of time for Apple to sort out their f@ck ups!

Yeah out today. I've not downloaded it yet, just wanted to see what people thought.

People with the 16gb phones might have problems as you need 4gb free storage to download it!!

It has important security updates. It's worth doing

it needs 4.6 to do the intial download... but it sits on your iphone at 1.3... i know.. its weird maths... lol

anyway easiest thing to do.. is do an icloud save.... delete to get to the 4.6 you need.... then put everything back on with an icloud download...

or...

i just had to remove a couple of big "game" apps... and then put them back on after....

I have an 8gb phone so not enough free memory. I would have to delete everything off my phone I have 3gib free and 3gibs used. This is after deleting quite a bit off my phone

and have no idea about how to re download an icloud backup.. My only issue is how much memory it will then take up as having an 8gib phone is pretty shitty. I have to download apps on my kindle to keep my phone from crashing and going slow. Remind me again why I switched to Apple

Sadly, I upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 - it turned a phone that was a delight to use into something quite ordinary.

I am loathe to go down the Android route as I find it 'messy'.

I've only had my new ipad for a couple of days and it's asking me to update. Am a bit loathe to, as if it's anything like my android phone update, I loose good apps.

May wait for a while me thinks, as still getting to grips with apple devices.

Im using a galaxy s4 but still using the 4.2 ice cream os.

im not updating it to the new kit kat os

last time I updated I lost all my apps and music and pics.

I know you can back all that stuff up but for the sake of a few new features I wont ever use... I just stick with the os my phone comes with nowadays

feel sorry for iphone users with a 4gb upgrade to ios8.

was reading some commets on fb about people needimg to delete stuff to fit the update on phone and some people saying it was taking 8 hours to install

good shout

should help people with limited space, although it's showing as 1.1gb for me to update on the 5s . I will still probably switch the mac on and do it that way

No problems with the update here on iPhone and iPad. I have Yosemite on my Mac and loving the new hand-off feature between devices. FTW!

Yeah. I like the way you can answer your phone on other IOS devices , so no need to carry phone and iPad around the house, I just have one upstairs, one downstairs.

Put it in your toaster, then start singing one of your play lists. It will pop up in about two minutes.

Must updates are more of the sane....but with extra glitches. If what you have ain't broke then don't try to fix it!

Even if I had space I wouldn't get this new software. I delete itube off my phone and it's no longer on App Store.

I could cry. I don't use iTunes either and blink box and spotify are too big for my phone.

gonna have to carry my kindle everywhere with me now..

Only good thing about new software I went into apple shop today and got a brand new charger for free....

I updated, you only need the the large amount of gig free whilst downloading the app, once its downloaded it only takes up 1gb of space same as the other software has done!

Ive turned off the predictive text as it was doing my head in, but the ability to add multiple pics to messages is cool.. As is the timer on the camera been saying for ages it needed that!
