Ever since iOS 9, scrolling through twitter, youtube or just mail, its not as smooth as it was in iOS 8. iOS 9.1 beta 3 made it a bit better than 9.0.2 but its still really bad.
If you're seeing dropped frames/hesitation/stuttering while scrolling, please file a bug report at http://bugreport.apple.com/ - file a report for each app where you observe the dropped frames/hesitation/stuttering while scrolling (Mail, Safari, Settings, etc.). A developer account is not required and it's the only way to get this resolved.

Please provide a case in which iOS 9 is smoother than iOS 8.

i said ur statement was wrong, where did i say its smoother than ios 8? read much? ios 8 was already smooth, ios 9 is smooth, smooth only gets so smooth before theres no difference.

u are the one trying to say all millions of us are wrong & its "worse", cause u want it to be worse. even if it was a case of ios 9 being smoother, with "proof" u & the other couple in here will surely refuse to accept it anyway.

dont try so hard, good lord this is getting old..in 10 months all u will be praising ios 9 even the beta over ios 10, good comedy for us at least

So if that is your answer, my answer is that some are so anal retentive as to find issues that don't exist.

I believe Apple has some internal coding issues but they were there on 8.4.1 and manifest themselves less in 9.0.2.
Again, how does this issue not exist when even people developing for the OS acknowledge its an issue?

Because it's with their app, because the dev is incorrect ? How do you explain people posting iOS 9 is better?
The Dev is wrong? Lmao! So, you must know more than a person who has been developing apps for a living on multiple versions of iOS? He even went into detail with me, explaining exactly what the problem with iOS 9 scrolling was. How do you refuse to believe there is an issue at this point?

Because it doesn't happen on my phone with the apps I use?

Show me a use case using native apps that this lag/stutter/performance is reproducible on a device I have, which is iPad 2, 5s or 6s.

Native app aren't that noticable. Almost any 3rd party app is though.

I see dropped frames on both my 5S and iPAD 2 in the following apps: Calendar (day view, scrolling through upcoming days/meetings and it routinely stutters), Mail (scrolling through the list of emails - I have thousands), Phone Recent Call list (5S only - scrolling through the list), Safari (scrolling through my bookmarks and on long webpages with and without images), Settings (scrolling through the list), Weather (5S only - switching between cities via the hamburger menu in the lower right still results in dropped frames; scrolling right through hourly temps always results in hanging/stuttering) and many more. This is with iOS 9.1 beta 3 installed fresh and setting up both my iPhone 5S's as new (no data restored) and all of the apps reinstalled and reconfigured manually and they both stutter in the apps/areas listed above. It's not fiction, it does happen and it can be resolved but only if we collectively submit bug reports to Apple at http://bugreport.apple.com/.

Weirdly enough in most of the situations you described my 5 is smooth, but the 5S indeed isn't.

I see stuttering everywhere on both my iPhone 6s and my Air 2, both on 9.0.2

My iPhone 6 which is on 8.4 I don't see any stuttering and I didn't on my Air 2 either before I updated it. My 6 is jailbroken but my Air 2 wasn't.

I have tried everything from DFU restoring and I even set my 6s as new but it doesn't help. I still think the 6s is a great phone but the I am eagerly waiting iOS 9.? to sort it out.

I've been using the new News app a lot lately and have about 25 or so publications selected as sources for news and have noticed that once News has refreshed the content and completed loading all images, scrolling through the list of articles and then through an article is perfectly smooth and without any stutter. It's interesting that there is zero stutter or dropped frames (there are animations in the News app) when they abound in other iOS apps.

Launching app. Drawing up control center. Unlocking phone. Multitasking.

While I'm not incredibly anti-iOS 9 like some people, even I have to say this is not the case for me. There is a strange delay between taping an icon and actually having it open, the app switcher is about the same, control center still lags if there is a complex image behind it.

I clean installed it on an iPad 3 and updated to it on an iPhone 6 and those issues are present on both devices.

The only stuttering i see is on the recent calls list. Everything thing else, including the hamburger menu in the weather app is smooth. I too have thousands of emails, scrolling through them on both the 5s and 6s is buttery smooth.

:rolleyes: u must be blind then cause thats wrong on so many levels
iOS 9 is definitely NOT faster than 8 like Apple says.My iPhone is definitely slower than how it is on iOS 8.With 9.0.2 its closer to 8.4.1 than ever before but to say its faster is wrong.I have an Air 2,a 6, ipad Mini 1 and on all of them its definitely not faster than iOS 8

I too see the delay you're referencing but it doesn't occur consistently. I also see a delay of about a second using TouchID to wake and authenticate my 5S (which has never occurred in iOS 8).

I've submitted bugs for each of these issues.

That's based on your use case, not somebody else's. I have a 5s and iPad 2 and my feeling is iOS 9 is faster than iOS 8. We all go around in circles as there is no universal way of measuring.
