IPad 2 Crashing after IOS 9.0.2 Update, Useless

My Ipad 2 will hardly run anything since these last few updates. It's been running slower and slower over the past year, with every update. And now it's to the point with IOS 9.0.2, it's almost completely useless.


I've tried all the fixes, reboot, hard reboot, updated on MAC Book Pro.


I personally think for spending almost $1000 less than 4 years ago, I should be able to run simple programs on my Apple Ipad 2.


I've been a faithful customer for years, with everything MAC, and I feel like it's a push to make me by a new Ipad.


Can't you at least give us IPad 2 users updates we can at least use the simplest programs on our IPad2's?


Getting really annoyed.

The iOS 9.3.5 update actually sped up my iPad 2 noticeably.

My iPad 2 had been running fine with no real issues on every iOS 9 update, but this last update really ticked up performance of my iPad 2.

It's a noticeable improvement.

I still have about 18 GBs of free data storage space on a 64 GB iPad 2.

How much free data storage space is left on your iPad 2?

How many apps do you leave running in the background in the iOS App Switcher?

Try my tips and possible solutions.


Slow iPad on iOS 9, 10 or 11!
