“How is iOS12 running for you?” Thread

[Releck97]

It's a slick update. My X seems to be running faster with fewer glitches. WiFi is much better in the corners of my house...much more similar to iOS10. Battery is at 91% after being off the charger for 2 hours. I think this could be attributed to indexing. Time will tell, but I'm optimistic.

How's iOS 12 doing on the 6?

I had found that class of SoC to be slowing down even several years ago. The 6s was a big jump both in memory and CPU speed over the 6.

My phone is a 6, and I’m loving it.

You shouldn't leave us hanging like that.

Current on IPP 12.9 G2 (AT&T)

iOS 12 Issues
1. No IPv6 on LTE on IPP (had it on 11.4.1) Have AT&T Carrier update installed. Issue existed on GM
2. After swipe Left to delete an iMessage entry, Done is stuck in upper left corner - need to kill in Task Manager to fix. Sporadic
3. Screen Time is incorrect. Seriously under-reported.

Issues from previous versions
1. Intermittent screen freezes
2. Default email incorrectly reports the number of unread emails
3. Default calendar alerts intermittently alert in Silent
4. ASK keystroke issues (at time a single keystroke will generate multiple characters)
5. Various other issue tied to non default apps. Will check after a couple of app updates (ex: Badge alerts will not go away immediately after addressing them)

These are all on the IPP.

iPhone X is crazy fast and smooth. My 5th Gen iPad feels like my old iPad Pro on iOS 10. I don't see either being replaced for a long time now.

iPhone X here, I see slight but noticeably snappier performance on opening apps or performing certain things on iOS 12. This phone was already pretty fast, but the small performance boost is nice.

NOTE: I did do a fresh iOS install on this update to clear any residual bugs or glitches from iOS 11.

For iphone X and ipad pro 10.5 I don't feel the performance improvement over IOS 11. But third party navigation on carplay is my favorite. It does feel snappier on old devices and I feel the GM is better than previous beta on my backup iphone 6. However, I would add another option which is "It’s faster, has bugs, has improvements, I like it".

I love iOS 12. It’s growing on me. Fast and smooth.

But it still have the iCloud Calendar bug for me, same as from day 1 of iOS 11.
But whatever, I stopped using the iClod calendar and use my Synology Calendar now anyway.
Just interesting that the bug was still there....

Constant loss of cell signal with AT&T and an X. Been doing it since beta started. Evidently no fix yet because today it does it more often than ever. Reset network,rebooted,etc.

Are you running carrier version 33.1 or 33.0?

 

[bobcaryh]

33.1

 

[dk001]

33.1

At this point I suspect either a bad SIM or hardware issue. The timing on the move to beta may just be coincidental.
You could try going back to 11.4.1 to see if you still have the issue.

Please let us know if you find a solution.

I get a new SIM friday when the xs max arrives. It literally happened the first time i used the phone when i went to the iOS 12 beta.I doubt the hardware failed at that exact moment. Of course its a year old now so out of warranty with Apple.

iPhone 8+ feels like a new phone. Super snappy.

what about battery life? I've been waiting I didn't even do the last few IOS 11 updates because they were such buggy messes.

 

[corruptdream]

i couldn’t upgraded via iTunes (strangely only ios 11.4.1 was available for upgrade) but i did it over the wifi. anyway, everything works really well on ios12 (iphone 7, came from 10.3.1)

 

[Falhófnir]

Absolutely loving it, for once it really does feel like the best iOS ever! Colour me impressed

It seems really good so far.

 

[pat500000]

Fantastic! I don’t know if it’s a placebo effect, but I swear my iPhone 8 Plus and 6th Gen iPad are running even faster and smoother than before. It’s no early to judge battery life though.

let us know about the battery.

Running iOS 12 on my iPhone 6S (battery replaced few months ago by apple) it's much better than it was on ios 11. Feels more responsive and definitely faster in opening apps. I did the update through itunes.

 

[yaxomoxay]

Loving it on my X. It’s very fast and so far I encountered only minor issues.
Wife’s 7 and kids’ SE are also smoking fast, they are all happy. And if wife is happy, I am happy

 

[wozmatic]

Reachability on iPhone 7 activates by accident very often now.

I'm going from iOS 10 to 12 and never had an issue with 10.

I have iOS12 for half a day today and it's already happened 20 times now.

 

[iterva]

Feels smoother on my X compared to IOS 11.

So been over 24 hours now and there is definitely improvements to smoothness compared to 11. Feels a lot more fluid and responsive overall.
I haven’t noticed any negative effect on battery life either. But time will tell.

 

[Guda.FL]

Fast, and stable. I do have a bug on the SE, when I get an incoming call and see the numbers pad its shifted ups 1-3 numbers are cut off above the screen.

No Group FaceTime and iMessages across devices is choppy....I'm disappointed in a way. They better be working on a completely new iOS UI for 13.

 

[chfilm]

My iphone X is not slower or faster, but definitely feels more buggy than before.

 

[KGB7]

Let the iPhone 6s Plus sit for about 3 hours after update and it seems to be running fine, no issues as far as I can tell.

Air2, best OS yet!
