Oct 5, 2014 8:37 AM in response to ssschmidtby SusanGriffiths,MIne is an iPhone 5C and had all of those problems...but I found the solution:
Go to:
1. Settings
2. General
3.Accesibility
4. Zoom
5. Switch Zoom Off
6. Screen brightness was then restored and no wobble etc.
Oddly, this bug does not manifest itself on the iPhone 5S

Battery life is pants: iOS8 onwards resets a shed load of auto notifications etc, but there is a good post on the Net "Saving iPhone Battery Life" which guides you through all the things to switch off after Apple bo77ocks update takes control of your settings (notably PRIVACY SETTINGS - US Anti-trust issues spring to mind).
MY iPhone got so hot I couldn't freaking well keep it in my pocket!
Thanks Apple Inc: u r freaking shysters.

You do realize, don't you, that Ant-Trust laws have nothing to do with consumer privacy, right?

Oct 5, 2014 6:16 PM in response to MyBlueSkyby sakinad,my iPad battery is draining so fast since the iOS 8 update. My husband's isn't. We have tried turning off everything that is extra on this iPad but it still drains within a couple of hours. To better use it shows the iMessage and contacts are the worst. Please help!

Oct 5, 2014 10:10 PM in response to MyBlueSkyby Mizzamzz,Here's my lovely list - using an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.0.2:
- Messages failing to send on both iMessage and normal message. This has happened while both on wifi and with at least 3 bars of phone coverage..
- Message app continuously crashes.
- Other apps continuously crash.
- Touch screen can be intermittent when trying to place a cursor somewhere on an internet page, or in a message that I am typing.
- Phone coverage is intermittent now. This is noticeable in places, such as at home, when it never used to have any problems. Calls drop out or cannot be made at all. When on a call sometimes the call will be dropping in and out, even though the phone says 4-5 bars of reception.
- The phone will not stay connected to wifi. It is constantly dropping off and I have to restart my phone before it will connect again. All other products, such an my husbands’ phone and our iPads are not experiencing this problem.
- When I am able to connect to wifi and use it the speed is drastically slower than when using other Apple devices on the same wifi connection.
Let's hope that 8.0.3 fixes everything so we can finally use our phones as we are meant to be able to.

Oct 12, 2014 7:15 PM in response to MyBlueSkyby rboko,Maps: map zoom level unrelated to sotart and stop icons. Overview does not show route, only start and stop. Background map does not change regardless of operation (i.e. Zoom, pan).
Having to reboot after every time I switch between Resume and Overview in Maps. Buggiest iOS update ever.
Running iOS 8.0.2 on an iPhone 5.

Oct 14, 2014 12:43 PM in response to MyBlueSkyby elquedo,I have problem with home button on iPhone 4s on iOS 8.
Whenever I click "once" it pops up the app switcher. It is randomly, there are no any dependency. But it occurs frequently and makes using iphone uncomfortable.
I'm not the only one with this problem - it looks that iphone 5 users also meet with this problem.

Oct 14, 2014 1:16 PM in response to MyBlueSkyby Jacques210,more of the same issues here, after upgrading my iPhone 4S from 7 to 8.0.2
- Phone becomes very hot
- battery drains in a couple of hours, instead of in more than one day
- main culprit is application Phone, with message low signal. However this did not happen on iOS 7.
my phone is now practically unusable at home. Not good at all

Oct 14, 2014 1:45 PM in response to Meg St._Clairby BarrrtL,I own a Iphone 5 32gb
Been on IOS8 for a few days; having the following problems:
1: Battery life has exponentially shorten
2: Random crashes from app's
3: Sometimes with the new dictionary in iMessage, when I turn to landscape I get a black screen for a small second an after that the mic has suddenly been selected
I liked the Apple products but it's getting worse and worse since Steve Jobs passed away. The quality of the products released is not nearly as good as before.

Oct 15, 2014 3:55 AM in response to mattia77by mattia77,Update.
After many, many reset, re-instalation, DFU and so on, mostly kindly guided by Apple support staff by chat, I eventually figured it was an hardware issue. Support by the device reseller confirmed it was an hardware issue that couldn't be fixed by them neither.
So, probably a coincidence and nothing to do with iOS8.

Oct 22, 2014 9:00 PM in response to mattia77by MyBlueSky,Wifi issue:
Apple disabled LEAP authentication method by default - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6441
But they mentioned nothing about how to enable this authentication method where required. I am not being able to connect to my office network which is a WPA2-Enterprise network with Encryption type AES and authentication method: Cisco: LEAP. Gives error "Incorrect username or password". Does any body have any solution?
