HI there,

I saw your response. I've been looking for an answer to the same problem.

I Wondered where you found the info you mention in your response because I'm very willing to explore further. My iPad and iPhone are my only means to Internet so this painfully slow wifi issue after updating to iOS 9 is very important to me to solve.

thanks for any help or info you can provide.

hi there,

absolutely the same problem... i made clean install and restore via itunes. ipad mini is so slow, almost impossible to use. i have to wait 3-5 seconds, so the ipad is responding. i type,.. and after 5 seconds the letters appear on the screen. same with my ipad 2 and same with iphone 4s. ios 9 killed 10 devices in my family. this is a nice/new strategy from apple to get rid of old devices. making them so slow.. that they become useless.. forcing you to buy always a new one which will last for only 2 more years before they kill it with an update/upgrade again.. since steve jobs is gone apple lost their vision to the highest quality standart.. just measure the quality of your apple device after two major upgrades.. it is always the same... every year a new ios.. same with macs... for the future... i will never upgrade anything... i got it for sure now..

IiPhone 4s and iPad mini 1 having 32bit architecture. Betwenn iPad mini one and two are dimensions. iOS 9 killed all 4s devices specially iPad mini one. apps open in 15 sec And longer browser the same.. And loading a side sometimes up to 30 sec.. My iPad is almost useless now just with an update. I did a fresh install twice with a backup. Nothing changed. I wish I could downgrade.. To ios 7. Apple did it definitely on purpose and if you google reviews from professionals they say the same..
