Since iOS 8... iPAD 2 slow WiFi, unresponsive taps at times, copy and paste function not working properly, typing is slow, opening and closing apps is SLOW. EVERYTHING WITH IOS 8 IS SLOOOOW

I Totally agree with you. Virus is a great way to describe ios 8. The list of bugs and undesirable features is endless.. I don't get push mail, notifications, or even texts anymore. I don't get phone calls, I can't answer calls because the screen is frozen, I get screen glitches, random graphical errors, missing wallpapers, unresponsive touchscreen, auto brightness does not work and when it tries it's very abrupt and noticeable, system sounds work sporadically,screen rotates on its own, screen rotation gets stuck, multitouch gestures fail constantly, Notification Center opens randomly, wifi disconnects frequently, keyboard disappears, Safari crashes, can't close last one tab anymore without more gestures, can't scroll to top anymore without added gesture, don't like disappearing menu bar, Safari can't connect to many secure sites anymore where chrome can just fine, auto fill is failing, ......enough is enough, this is crap. I want ios 6 back.

Apple has completely copied android creating a buggy, laggy, unreliable pile of crap. Might as well buy an android, they're cheaper and open source.

Tell Apple, not us. feedback

the reason why people are venting their spleen on forums like this is that they HAVE fed back to apple either through a store or the feedback option with little or no support from either

users like myself who have spent a lot of our hard earned $ or £'s or what ever currency it is have a right to be treated properly and unfortunately apple have failed big style over iOS 8.

We don't have any other means to make our feelings felt other than forums such as this which may or may not be the right place

I think as a moderator you are going to have to get used to it till Apple change their stance

I'm not a moderator and there is no stance for Apple to change. ranting here won't get you far. Report it to SWC.

I face the same - tried to solve it with Apple support - hopeless!!! After latest iOS upgrade the callendar unable to go to 2015 without freezing, etc. etc. Now working with iPad2 is always test of patience and I am fed-up. I hate this "push" to buy new products ... I was so happy with iPad at the begining and I see this ignorance to "old users" as a big strategic mistake.

Ok bring it to the Apple Store and see what they can do.

Why are you here, this is a forum for people who have similar if not the same problems with their Apple gear. I've complained to Apple in the past to no avail. Please stop trolling.

Try turning off the "background app refresh".

settings/general.

at least that made things faster for me.
