I was forced to "upgrade" my iPad 2 to iOS 9.2, because I forgot my pin to unlock it. There is no way to factory reset it without updating the OS.
I mean, I didn't have to update it, but then I wouldn't be able to use it. My iPad was held hostage, although I guess it was my fault for forgetting my pin, right?
Here's a list of regressions in iOS 9:
- My sideloaded copy of Flux no longer works
- The built-in feature, to change the display temperature, is not available on my iPad 2, and the Flux app no longer works.
- Can no longer change audio output in Music app, to select between different bluetooth devices
- Battery life is worse
- BitTorrent Sync can no longer access my photos or videos
- For each bug they fixed, new bugs were introduced. In OneNote with text selection, and in Safari.
Why does nobody talk about all of the regressions in each OS update?
And of course, I had to update iTunes. And then of course I could no longer use it for development without updating my MacBook and XCode!
I use my iPad to develop medical software with an enterprise license on a closed environment, and do not need or /want/ the latest version of XCode.
I only used this device because it was provided by work, but I did start to grow fond of it and began using it more and more as a laptop replacement. I knew better than to buy an iOS device, since I've been burned by Apple so many times. I'd be happy to give you a long list of the ways Apple has been just as bad as Microsoft, except, Apple has a nice velvet glove when they are evil, whereas Microsoft is clay footed giant.
