Ipad running slow after iOS 8 upgrade

Ipad mini is running extremely slow after upgrading to iOS 8. Can I go back to the old iOS? The speed of the current mini is useless.

No, you cannot downgrade iOS. Many, many people have reported similar issues and have been helped. If you are having specific problems, search the forums for similar issues already asked and answered, or post your own support request.

IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgrade

After IOS 8 upgrade many aplications ( Safari, Facebook, etc) load very, very slow (comparing with 7 version) , with a significant delay of more than 10 seconds...
Who can I solve this problem? Any workaround?
PD
Apple should better test the software before delivering.
Thanks.

Here's the list of the most annoying issues that affect me since updating my iPad 2 64GB w/Cellular iPad to IOS 8:
EXTREMELY SLOW - When opening apps, or switching between them - We are talking just the built-in apps. Mail, Safari, Settings....
Extremely slow Wi-Fi AND broadband. The Wi-Fi is the worst though. Horrible. Page load times are 2 to 4x slower than my wife's iPad.
Battery life reduced by at least 25%. Used to make it all day long, now I am having to plug it in.
Heat - It is working so hard that the processor is heating up. That can't be healthy for it, and surely the majority of the power issues stem from this.
Copy/Paste not functioning correctly between browser windows. Oh this is frustrating. I just want to paste the URL of one website I am on to Facebook, for instance. Even though I COPY, it's pasting in info I clipped a earlier in the day to one browser tab, but if I open another one, it will paste the correct information. You never know what you are going to get.
Cannot post a photo to facebook by hitting the camera icon when leaving a reply or making a post (using web browser version)... It starts the upload, then just stops. I *CAN* go to photos, then SHARE it to facebook, but that doesn't allow me to post a photo along with a reply.
Multiple app crashes per day. This I can deal with. It's nothing new, it's just more frequent. Safari and Mail seem to be the major culprits. It wouldn't be so bad except it takes 2-4 seconds to reopen the crashed app. Sometimes as much as 10 seconds.
And that's just the annoying ones....

TS1398 Wifi slow after iOS 8 upgrade

Since upgrading to iOS 8 the wifi connection from both my iPad Air and iPhone 5 is so slow that watching video or streaming is not possible and many web pages take ages to load. I've rebooted and reset both devices and 2 different routers that are working well with other devices (including apple products running on earlier iOS version.) Is the only solution to revert to iOS 7 until the issues are fixed?

Thanks Brian,
on an AirPort Extreme which hasn't been updated and isn't waiting for one.
this specifically started when I upgraded to 8.0.2 and from the look of the communities and Twitter, it's not just me.

My iPhone 4s seems to be running slower after the os6 upgrade. Anybody else having this problem?

My iPhone 4s seems to be running slower and crashes after the ios6 upgrade. The power off button does not appear when I try to power it off, the screen just goes blank.

Mine seems to be running faster after the upgarde although i am facing battery drainage. Best you do a hard reset to the phone and this should solve the issue. Apparently if you upgrades via OTA, there were some issues. hope this helps

IPad Air restarting after iOS 8 upgrade...?

I Was happy with iOS 7 with latest upgrades. No problem since then.
i just updated to iOS 8 and problem starts..
1: after upgrade to iOS 8 , my iPad Air keeps restarting on every single apps I open.( fb, YouTube, Safari, airborn8 game, behance etc.). Is there any solve ? Or should I revert to iOS 7 ?
2: when I starts airborn 8 , it initially jerks, stops. Finally ipad restarts with blue screen. Should I revert it back to ios 7 ?
3: iPad seems unresponsive sometime. It happens for every app. Should I revert to iOS 7 ?
4: now I am facing another funny problem. I got a update of IOS 8.0.1 but after downloading it , when I tap the install option, it shows "sorry, we can not install update as you are not connected ". I cross checked my connection every time. Yes every other apps and web pages are loading like charm as usual with my 4 Mbps connection.
5: iPad is heating up too much , even during this question typing. And battery drains 5% already
please solve this issues ASAP. And let me use a stable, beautiful iOS 8.

I & my friend have the same problem. Apple kindly reply ASAP. what if this constant restart cause hardware problem? Product is under warranty but time is also expensive element.

3GS incredibly slow after iOS 5 upgrade

Hello Everyone
I accidentaly upgraded my 3GS to iOS yesterday... (not really, I just REALLY wanted Notification Center and iMessage) And now its INCREDIBLY slow. Switiching between pages is terrible, and anywhere text input is needed the keyboard lags like crazy! I do reckon it's because of the slower processor (my wife's iP 4 is FLYING in iOS 5), but I'm tired of having to wait about 5 seconds after I tap a letter for it to appear on screen.
Is there a way I can downgrade back to 4.3.5? My phone wasn't half as bad back then, and I really need the speed back (constantly emailing for work, etc..)
So please help me out if you can:)
Thank You
Juan Bernal

Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), and release. If that doesn't work, connect to iTunes, go to the Summary tab and Restore.

Ipad running hot after 8.3 upgrade

I just upgraded my iPad to 8.3. In the couple of hours since, it is uncomfortably warm to the touch. I've stopped all running apps and forced a shut down while I let it cool off. Is this a known issue with this upgrade?

What you need to do is what many others have done, and that is to reset your iPad to factory default condition by using your iTunes program. And ... don't forget your backups.

IPad connection issue after iOS 8 upgrade

I Have an iPad 3G - WiFi- and recently upgraded to IOS 8. Every since connection bounces from 3G to "no service" (AT&T provider). I have been able to get reconnected only by choosing "Reset Settings". I previously powered off and restarted with no resolution. Found article that mentioned this same issue but said it only was issue in iphone 6. Anyone else have a similar experience or easier solution? I rely on iPad for work and really need a solution that doesn't involve frequent resets....

I have been to Apple store twice now on this issue. We have tried all of the above suggestions-- restore, network reset, re-installing SIM card-- and the problem always returns. The Genius Bar tech told me the IOS update brought out a latent problem hidden in the firmware -- in other words, it is a problem caused by Apple, but not everyone experiences this problem. The tech also told me there was nothing more that could be done, short of buying a new ipad. I asked about going back to the earlier IOS version but she said Apple will not allow that at this point. So it sounds to me like a "forced obsolescence" thing that Apple has inflicted on me: they admit their update brought out a problem, previously unmanifested, which had always been lurking in their firmware-- but their solution is that I need to ditch my ipad 2 and buy a new ipad. I never had this type of issue before the upgrade. the problem is more of a nuisance/inconvenience than anything else, because it can be rectified by powering down every few hours, so it's not worth it to me to spend hundreds on a new ipad. And anyway if this is an example of their customer service I'm not sure I will stay with Apple when it finally is time to buy a new tablet.

Iphone 4 slow after IOS 8 upgrade

I've upgraded my phone to IOS 8.0.2 and I've noticed a substantial decrease in both performance and ability to use SIRI. Apps load incredibility slow and SIRI is painfully slow. At least 8 seconds to load, and then another 8 to 10 to get the app or SIRI to do anything. I've closed all the background applications and restarted the phone to no avail. Can someone tell me why there is such a performance hit to the IP4?

That's the answer? Really? Downgrade? Are you kidding me?

IPad restarting Automatically after IOS 8 Upgrade

I purchased an IPad Mini with retina display in Aug 2014, upgraded to IOS8 on 19-sep 2014, since then the IPad has restarted automatically when I was browsing through the App store specifically.
What is the reason for this freak occurrence.

Is your App Store experience slow after iOS 6 upgrade?

Here are the scenarios I find to be very slow:
1. going to update section and clicking on update all which will update 20+ apps at the same time and App Store becomes unusable
2. Go to charts section and now select a category, you will see 3 columns of apps just try scrolling up/down on one of the columns. I find the UI to be very poorly responding to tracking my finger. This reminds me of using samsung galaxy tab 10.1 on android 3.x which had horrible UI responsiveness.
I'm on iPad 3rd generation. I didn't expect this iPad to buckle under these changes seems like the App Store needs more optimization a for sure.

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

IPads extremely slow after ios8 upgrade

Hello,
I own an iPad 2 and an iPad3 retina. Both were working fine until I upgraded them to ios8.
Since then, both ipads have slowed down to a crawl. Surfing the web is *much* slower, the ipad seems to hang when you simply load a webpage. Also, the keyboard has become so slow that it lags behind the typing. I will be typing a sentence, and when I stop typing, the ipad could still have 10 characters in the keyboard buffer.
So up until last week, I had a couple of ipads that were a little bit older, but still working at an acceptable speed. Today, I have two ipads that are frustratingly slow to operate.
So the obvious thing to do would have been to downgrade back to ios7. But unfortunately, this doesn't work either. I get a message that ios7 is not compatible with my device.
So can somebody offer a solution, either a trick to downgrade to ios7, or another method to get my ipads back to their former performance.
BTW: same problem on my iphone 5, much slower as well, but here the speed is still acceptable.

iPad 2 and iOS 8.0.2 Problems
For all iPad 2 owners, this is an important solution for you! These problems result from long-term use, continuous upgrades, corrupted files and various glitches that happen over this long term use. You just need to get your iPad 2 back to FACTORY FRESH CONDITION to start out clean!
Here's one person's solution which will help a lot of iPad 2 users!

Re: IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgradein response to pacoKAS
SOLVED: IOS 8 Issues on iPad 2:
I just returned home from a visit to the Genius Bar. Like you and many others, when I upgraded my iPad 2 to IOS 8, it became practically unusable. It was VERY slow, lagged whenever trying to to do anything. Lots of screen freezes and apps spontaneously crashing. I was convinced that the processor on the iPad 2 just couldn't handle the new IOS and I went in to see about restoring to IOS 7.
Thankfully, I was hooked up with a very sharp guy at the bar. The problem is not with the OS, it is with it being an *upgraded* OS. He used the analogy of when you had an older Windows computer and how over time (and over upgrades), they just tended to get slower and slower because of all of the garbage that was carried forward in the upgrades. At those times (and if you've ever had a Windows computer, you get this), the only thing that would speed it up would be to wipe the machine and do a fresh install of the current OS and then reload your apps, and the viola, everything would be fast again. Well, it turns out that IOS can suffer the same problems.
THE FIX: FIRST, be sure you have a current iCloud backup of your device. Connect your iPad to a computer that has a clean fresh copy of IOS 8 on iTunes (this is best done with a computer other than the one that you sync your device to because you DO NOT want to restore it from a back up just yet). Ideally, if you do this at an Apple store you'll be assured of the right version there and someone to answer any questions you might have along the way. You then hold the power and home button down to hard-reset the device and continue to hold them down until it reboots into recovery mode. You then follow the instructions on the computer to reinstall the OS on the device (which wipes everything from it and then reinstalls a clean copy of it). Once this is done (which only takes about 15 minutes), your device will reboot and ask you to set it up. Answer the questions about language, location, etc. and continue until it asks you to log into your iTunes account. Once you do that, it will ask if you want to either 1) Set it up as a new device, 2) Restore from iCloud, or 3) Restore from iTunes. Choose (2), restore from iCloud. This will ensure that it brings down "clean" copies of all of your apps and preferences rather than the potentially corrupted ones that might reside in your iTunes backup. That's it! It will take a few hours depending on how much data and apps you have, but I am happy to report that my iPad 2 is now running IOS 8 and it's running as fast as it ever did when it was brand new!
To sum it up, this process 1) Wipes your device and the garbage causing your problems, 2) Loads a clean and bug-free version of IOS 8 to your device, and 3) restores your apps and data so that it looks just like it did before the wipe, with the exception that it works now! :-)
Note also that by following this process you don't have to go through the painful and laborious process of reloading all of your apps, data and/or settings. iCloud takes care of all of that for you.
