iPad Pro iPad Pro and iOS 11 issues. Are you affected?

[gobikerider]

iOS 11 has been the greatest update Apple has ever made, especially after the 11.1 update for better battery.
All my iOS devices except the iPod 5 (see my signature) all have been updated to iOS 11.1.1 and work better than any iOS version before.
My only grievance is how the home button still has to be clicked to open my iPad, (even with “rest to open” on it will occasionally still require it.)


Kallum.

Man your either lucky or just not sensitive as I am but my Pro has random performance hiccups that are plain sad on a device of this caliber. Luckily I think Apple is still optimizing for the A10X chipset. The Air 2 performance in iOS 11 looks swell and that chipset is going on 3+ years of optimiziations. Can’t wait to see where the A10X goes in 3-4 months let alone 3 years.

I’m getting about 80% of my former battery life on my iPad Pro.

Also, I haven’t seen anyone else say this, but my display brightness keeps floating around - dimming for no reason I can see. I have brightness set to manual (Tru=tone and Night Shift off). This started the day I installed 11.1. It’s pretty noticeable and dims over the course of perhaps 5-6 seconds.

General/Accessibility/Display-accommodation
Turn Auto Brightness off and you’ll see no more dimming.

After you have done that, turn True Tone back on because it is awesome.

My home button also doesn’t immediately wake my device. I find myself hitting it 2-3 times if it even repsonds at all, sometimes I have to click the power button to wake my device because the home button is just not waking the display but it does detect and unlock my iPad because the display just pops up no lock screen to speak of.

I have the exact same problem on my iPad Air 2

I'm very happy with the performance and stability of iOS 11. I held off installing the beta, so went public, I was a bit underwhelmed. I kept hearing about how it will make my IPP even better. Its a nice upgrade but not revolutionary. Yet with that said, I found it be rock solid. So while the features may not be awe inspiring, the stability and quality of the OS is top notch

Have you tried calibrating your iPad Pro battery? Also I find auto brightness greatly improves my battery life, I also have Siri and Spotlight Search disabled on my iPad along with most of the location “system services”

So people buy an iPad to have all the aforementioned services and your solution to battery drain is to disable everything? No way, I paid for that and that is what I shall have.

On another note when I experienced battery drain on my 10.5 the Apple Genius Bar run the tests and there was nothing wrong. He did however mention it was more than likely a rouge app. So I removed apps I hadn’t used for 3 weeks plus (figured if I hadn’t used them for that time I probably didn’t need them) and voila battery is now better than my iPad 9.7 pro

The latest public beta has not fixed any of my freezing and lagging issues on my 10.5. I mainly notice it when typing where key input clicks verify keys are being pressed but nothing shows on screen. These issues surfaced with iOS 11 with none of these issues present on iOS 10.

At times the screen freezes, not responding to any touch input for up to 10 seconds at a time. What I find weird is after each beta update the iPad seems to work flawlessly for a day or so, then issues resurface. I’m very frustrated. Considering a visit to the Apple store at this point.

Wouldn't know. Still smooth sailing on iOS 10 here.

I have doc creep.... The application doc over time shifts to the right and will reach a point were it's not visible at all... My only option is to restart. 12" pro... Anyone else?

Google Docs? My documents in Pages have never done that ?

No, talking about just the home screen. I found last night as I rotated the display the dock would shift to other areas of the display, at one point completely jumping off the display. It's really odd and wasn't an issue prior to iOS11. BTW, my 12.9 is a first gen. Not sure that makes a difference.

It shouldn’t those rotation glitches have been around since iOS 10 actually. I’m not sure if they are going to fix it at this point. Mine sometimes gets stuck in one rotation regardless of orientation and I have to sleep and wake the iPad to fix it.
