iOS 9 vs iOS 8.4.1 unresponsiveness due to input-blocking

[Radon87000]

Just like radon87000 might have exaggerated ever so slightly when it was said iOS 9 is a heaping pile of garbage(sic)

Difference is lag may be there.You just can't see it because of higher tolerance.Crashes can't be avoided

If I had to prioritize the bad stuff; crashes are worse than lag stutter; which is why iOS 8 wasn't great but didn't kill my phone.

i7guy is heavily exaggerating the issue saying iOS 8 was a crash fest.If it was that bad ,I would have experienced it.This ain't some subjective lag we are talking about

So lag is subjective after all? Well well.

Both are important.Its no use if fluidity is completely sacrificed for stability.

By subjective I mean it's there.He either can't see it or is trolling.The hardware is the same.So if it lags on one iPhone 6 the other iPhone 6's also have to lag

Either it is or it isn't, can't have it both ways.

Duplicate, delete.

So by that same logic if one phone crashes and restarts randomly then another one should too, right?

Yes. If they're both fresh installs to rule out any bad apps or configuration. However, the iPhone 6 lags on 9.1 freshly installed so therefore every iPhone 6 with a fresh install of 9.1 will be exactly the same.

 

[Radon87000]

Yup.They will on similar configurations

Fixing these issues would make it better for all. I'm glad they don't bother you and they don't affect the way you use your devices, but why bother those who want these items/issues improved? Improvement isn't going to hurt your experience one way or another. This thread isn't about slamming Apple.

what about accidental-double-tap ?
I think they are going to improve the situation, if many people complains about it, in the future revisions of iOS 9, but some design choices will remain untouched.

Only thing I can think of possibly is "accidental-tap-prevention", but if that's the case, if that's what's behind all of this clunky workflow input-killing, it seems inconsistent/random. Because, why does the notification panel have input-blocking but control center doesn't?

I'd also pay $100 for a setting to turn off accidental-tap-prevention, if that's really what apple's intention is. I really doubt it though.

I tried Samsung's flagship S6, Android has beautiful responsiveness going to home screen and tapping apps, didn't have any input-blocking no matter how fast you used it.

I was starting to like you posts, until you wrote how "beautiful and responsive" the Samsung S6 is ... the famous LagWiz UI.
Lol, I won't touch another Samsung's phone even if they give me one for free.

I've provided videos showing what the OP is experiencing and I agree 100% with him on the issue. I experience the delay, what's your reasoning for taking a few minutes out of your day to be in this thread? If this issue didn't affect me, I'd have no reason whatsoever to be here in this thread. And again, Apple fixing this or changing it back would have no effect whatsoever on how you use your device. So really, why do you care? The term "trolling" comes to my mind. We all know you don't experience it. That's wonderful for you. Why do you insist to keep trying to start an argument with the ones that do see it?

I could say the same for every people doing the opposite spending their time on an Apple centric forum when they basically hate everything Apple is doing.

I'm under the impression someone else is trolling the forum here....

I admit I haven't used it much, but it was consistently responsive in the home screen app test where iOS9 fails, that's quite beautiful after all the frustration I'm going through with iOS9. You might be right about the rest, I don't know enough to say.

Touchwiz on a Galaxy S6 is not the same as it used to be.You should give it a try some time.Speed and Responsiveness matches and sometimes exceeds the iPhone and the screen is much more beautiful
Being on an Apple centric forum does not mean we all have to behave like fanboys

But somehow it means expecting unrealistic perfection and believing that it was there at some point when it never really was?

This unrealistically perfect performance existed at some point of time on my iPhone 6.Watch some 8.4.1 vs 9.0 YouTube videos.You will see what I mean

It wasn't perfect that's the point. It was better in one aspect that has been your focus for the moment with iOS 9, but it certainly wasn't perfect nonetheless.

Only speaking in terms of UI frame rate, fluidity and performance, 8.3 was best (on my iPhone 6). 8.4 comes in second best because of the stupid Music app that made the phone a bit laggy if you left it open for too long, but it was only for a few seconds and was remedied by quitting Music.app.

Now perhaps 7 was better, but as you know, iOS 7 wasn't on the iPhone 6, so the only thing I can compare my iPhone 6 on is iOS 8 and iOS 9.

So in conclusion, my iPhone 6 performed best on 8.3 and therefore 9 is worse in every performance aspect. Also, I think iOS 8 was less glitchy too.

Tried. It's the same awful experience. Samsung can't make a decent UI.
The only Android device I would touch is a Nexus.

Still running 8.4.1 on an iPhone 6. I see no need to upgrade nor do I want to. I did update my Air 2 but only because it has 2gb of ram and for the multitasking.

Dont even think about upgrading iPhone 6 to any iOS beyond 8.4.1.Its an unpleasant experience.Believe me

It's more than fine for most, but can be somewhat annoying for a minority.

So you agree there has been a performance degradation but "fast enough" is good enough

 

[Radon87000]

Just look at this BLATANT lie.I LOL everytime I see this

It must be pretty bad to see any commercials or ads for anything since marketing often doesn't represent reality.

Have you ever seen this kind marketing by Apple before though ? Apple is usually spot on for delivering what they advertise. They aren't selling 3 dollar Big Macs here , lol.

I love you guys, I really do. At this point I'm more interested in seeing how long a group of people can be involved in an endless, pointless discussion.

On topic, I upgraded to iOS 9. The input animation glitch with Reduce Motion enabled is annoying, as I usually keep animations off. Hopefully Apple fixes this in a future update. It looks like the input delay is matched to stock animations and not the quicker fade animation. Surprised Apple hasn't addressed this yet.

Keeping my iPad on iOS 8, as its jailbroken. Once I demo an iPad Air on iOS 9 in person I'll decide if I want to upgrade for iOS 9's few features. This is, of course, assuming Apple will fix this glitch.
