iPad Air, iOS 8 and random reboots with blue screen

I Updated my iPad Air 16gb wifi model with iOS 8 yesterday and since then I am facing random reboots with blue screens. Is this a known issue or am I in trouble ?

Got BSOD after upgrading to iOS 8 on my iPad, is this a bug! If so can we get a fix? This is irritating "ios 8 is released with lots of confidence and this kind of issues are bad to see!" . Even during this post I had faced issue of app closing. Expect an immediate fix for this

I'm having the similar issue right after the OTA update to iOS 8. When i'm using certain apps like safari, zite, Find My Freinds, .. after a few minutes working on them, the Blue Screen appear and iPad air reboot itself. We need to wait for iOS 8.0.1 update To fix this.

Altho I didn't get any blue screens after upgrading to 8.0 some aps stopped working but actually bigger issue is with wi-fi. After connecting to wi-fi speed is OK (speed test) but after going into video streaming app like youtube speed fals extremely, even below 1Mbs (should be 60) So if any wideo works its in lowest quality. After reconnecting to wi-fi I got "speed" back at least in test.... I didn't had this problem with 7.1.2 and other devices works fine.


Any Idea what to do with it? I'm new to Apple hardware so please help 😟

I used to have that annoying Safari 'crash' bug with my iPad Air 128Gb from new. Sadly, It stayed in the iOS-7 upgrade.

But now with the iOS-8 upgrade the Safari 'crash' bug has gone, but within 30 minutes of upgrading Safari did a BSOD & rebooted the iPad Air.

I've had it occur twice now, both times while using Safari. Crazy weird... I never expected a Blue Screen of Death on an Apple product!

I updated the IOS 8 which was around 1.3Gb.It took ages to update thinking this update was worth a shot.Turned out my whole weekend is screwed up,the apps that i generally use like in games DEAD TRIGGER 2,GOD FIRE in apps GARAGEBAND,SAFARI they all make the ipad to reboot with a blue screen.The only thing i used my IPAD Air now is for facebook thats it.I regret to upgrade without reading the reviews of you guys.Please APPLE SUPPORT try and fix this ASAP.
