iPhone6 extremely slow after upgrade to iOS 8.2

I'm having the same problem. Its not new this issue and before I solved it by restoring the dictionaries and the keyboard but this time it didn't solved it and it persists.

I just upgrade my iPhone6 to iOS 8.2(apple watch). After the upgrade the phone is lagging and is extremely slow. Just writing a text is a problem waiting in-between inputs.

Has anyone else had issues with speed and use their iPhone6 after the upgrade?

I have not had a problem with speed. Sometimes a laggy iPhone can be the result of memory fragmentation in RAM (not in storage). It shouldn't happen, because iOS is generally very good about managing memory, but occasionally it needs to be helped. Try the following:

• Press HOME once, then double-press it to bring up the Quick Launch screen
• Kill each app you see by flicking its screen image up. Continue until all apps except the Home screen are closed
• Press HOME once, and wait about 2 minutes for all apps to finish shutting down
• Turn the phone off by holding the SLEEP button until Slide to power off appears, and do so
• Wait another minute for it to finish the shutdown
• Turn the phone back on by holding the SLEEP button until an Apple logo appears.

Let us know if this helps.

It Didn't solve the problem. And I'm avoiding a full restore

Now you've got to do some troubleshooting:

• Go to Settings/General/Reset - Reset Network Settings. You will not lose any data, but it will erase your WiFi passwords.
• If that fails to solve it, Go to Settings/General/Reset - Reset All Settings. You will not lose any data, but it will set all iOS settings back to the factory default, including the Home screen layout.
• The next attempt is to connect the phone to iTunes and restore iOS. Initially set up the phone as New, and test it.
• If it is working normally then restore your backup from iTunes. Test again. If the problem returns you have corrupt data in the backup and you will have to restore as New again, and not restore a backup

I've been having the same issues. Just wanted to chime in. iPhone6 plus. Suddenly feels like an iphone4. Memory issues. (Ram not storage). Have to restart phone 2-3 times a day just to keep from throwing it into the street. Typing this now on it and its lagging.

WIll try restore tonight. Oy. Might go through the trouble of rolling back or trying the public beta.

See the 3rd message in this thread; let me know if it helps.

I Read things before commenting like most people. I've also read this issue in other threads on apples forums as well as half a dozen other websites. Problem solving. See if anyone else is having the same issue and troubleshoot. If it was unique, I'd assume it is hardware. Seems like a memory leak. Apple needs to put more ram in their phones. Everyone else has been for awhile.

Also... Every time I switch apps, going back and forth, apps don't alwys resume. They restart as if I had quit them. If I was jailbroken I'd look at logs but yeah.

Actually, most people DON'T read before commenting. I wish they did. But its rare enough that I assume people didn't. So I apologize for assuming that you didn't.

More RAM won't make a difference. No matter how much RAM you have it will fill up. iOS has Unix advanced virtual memory management, which has been around for 40 years and is practically perfect. If clearing RAM and restarting doesn't fix the problem there's most likely an app that is hogging the CPU. This is not a widespread problem; it is specific to a few iDevices.

Meant unlike not like. Heh. As I stated above... If I restart its fine for a little while but then starts slowing down and lagging. Perfect is an overstament. I code a bit. C. I need to quit replying.

i experienced the same issue. Try turning off check spelling and predictive under your keyboard utilities. it solved my problem

Ugh, I wish I hadn't upgraded. This happened to my iphone 4 and never got resolved which is why I felt forced into getting the iphone 6. So here I am with the iphone 6 and a sluggish phone. I can't work like this. It's unacceptable. How can it be fixed? (the turning off auto spelling check didn't help. or closing apps and restarting)

I feel the same way. I almost went with another type of smart phone but purchased iPhone6 and it's not much better than the 4s I just gave away. It's bad enough the phones suck after a year but this is 3 months old! 700-800 dollar phones should not have all these issues.

I was in my contacts, tapped the Message icon on the contact to send a message and that's when my problems started. It's only the Message application - it runs so slow it's not usable.

I've tried turning the Apps off, the phone off, the Network reset.. nothing is helping..

It must be processing something as the phone is getting warm also...

arrrrrhhhhhhhhh!!
