So iOS 10 will be made available at 6pm UK time tonight, who here is an immediate updater and who waits a few days first? Or do you just not bother updating at all, happy with what you have?

I always get very excited about things like this, I won't update absolutely immediately but I more than likely will do before the end of the night once I've seen people say that their phone hasn't been ruined by it.

I've seen pictures of the new iMessage app store with various games that you can play, I wasn't that excited about the ability to make message bubbles do different things but now I've seen games are involved I am sold!

I don't think I'd ever dare try the betas unless I had a second iOS device which I can risk ruining, I hear too many horror stories and I panic over simple things like a sync error as it is ("please don't duplicate my play counts!!!11" "please don't make me restore everything!!!11")! heehee.gif From what I'm reading though the GM has been very reliable so hopefully there won't be an issues for the majority tonight.

I am SO bad with updating my iPhone, I haven't actually done so since last year. Yet I'm pretty prompt with my iPod touch updates laugh.gif I guess I just put it off for a bit and then I actually started having not enough memory to update. Eventualllly I'll sort it all out kink.gif

when i say "killed" my phone i mean in terms of battery and also the first version was SO slow and made my phone crash quite a bit. battery life is still shite but they fixed the crashing bug

also the new homescreen really threw me!! heehee.gif it's weird having to touch to unlock my phone instead of swiping

I'm most excited for the revamped music app, I imagine it'll take some getting used to but purely for little things like the default search menu being for my library rather than all apple music it is going to be lifechanging!

music update was really good, apart from for SOME REASON (which i actually can't fix but i'm not sure if this is going to be the norm for all updaters????), when I go onto "all songs" instead of listing them alphabetically by song title, it orders each song alphabetically by artist :')

it'd feel weird for me to swipe these days. ever since my code got turned into 6 digits (don't know how to change back to 4??) I just automatically use my finger now. saves me at least 1 minute a day

I read about others having this issue, apparently somewhere (possibly in Settings > Music) there is an option to change this. Just Googled and here we go! http://www.addictivetips.com/ios/how-to-so...-app-in-ios-10/ Try that biggrin.gif

Yeah there's an option to change it back: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204060

Ooh I feel like a talking Apple FAQ!

I've not seen what the big changes are yet?

I will probably update, but I usually leave it a few days after the update is available

Biggest things are probably massively revamped Messages, significantly revamped Music, News, Photos, much more integration for 3D Touch (if your device is compatible) and the transformed use of widgets on your lock screen and home screen.

Loving the new look messages ohmy.gif biggrin.gif the only person who i text with an iPhone though is my mum (i rarely text anyone these days its all Facebook messenger), she's still living in the dark ages with an iPhone 4 and probably hasn't updated her phone since 1973 laugh.gif

May have to talk to her about updating her phone soon thinking.gif laugh.gif
