    iPhone 5 with iOS 9 any faster than iPhone 4 with iOS 7?

    Right now, I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 7. It's pretty dang slow. There are some apps that I technically can download and use, but in practice are so slow as to be unusable (Snapchat, for instance). I'd like to upgrade to a 5, but I've read that on iOS 9 they can be slow, too. But would it at...

    iPhone Are the Emoji packs for Bytafont safe to use now?

    i know they used to be buggy. But I'm on 8.4 so I can't see some of the iOS 9.x fonts. But I saw a repo (poomsmart.github.io/repo) says there's a working iOS 9 font pack that works with 8.4. Just wondering if these are safe to try? Last thing I wanna do is end up stuck on 9.3.2 just so I can...
