According to data from analytics company Mixpanel, adoption of iOS 8.4 reached a whopping 40 percent within just one week of its release. There is no doubt that the rapid adoption of the latest version of the operating system for the iPhone and iPad was caused by the arrival of the music service Apple Music. It is actually distributed as part of iOS 8.4.
So Apple can be very pleased with the public's interest in at least trying out Apple Music. In addition, the statistics are paradoxically spoiled a little by users who are already testing the beta version of iOS 9. There are several million of them, and it is clear that most of them will also be among those who like to try Apple Music.
Unfortunately, data on the use of individual iOS versions is published only by independent analytical companies such as Mixpanel, and official numbers directly from Apple are not available. It is not clear here how accurate such data are and whether they can be trusted 8%. When the Cupertino, California-based company last released official numbers, iOS 84 had 22% of users installed in various versions. However, this number was already valid on June XNUMX and may have increased again in the last month.
if it's not because people made the same mistake as me - upgrading to ios 8 ... since then I don't care about these tens and upgrade immediately with little hope that the problem-free functionality of ios 6 will return
That's right - I upgraded to iOS8 in a weak moment and since then using the iPad has been punishing - lags, app crashes, ...
Can you go back to 8.3? On the iPad Air 2, after the update, there is an incredibly long response when unlocking, sometimes up to 2 seconds
And not just the lag. Download the necessary firmware http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-downgrade-ios-8-4-ios-8-3-iphone-ipad-ipod-touch-1508825 and recover from it.
so at the next keynote, there will be one nice number to pay for again .. or how many devices have IOS 8 :-D
If you didn't exist, we'd have to invent you. :)
I am not sure if the number of iOS devices with version 8.4. necessarily related to the number of users of the new Apple Music service..
I had Apple Music vp***, I was interested in the free half a gig, I think that was the biggest attraction for a lot of others as well.
Things that piss me off about Apple Music, mostly on iOS:
1. Auto pausing music… wtf ?
2. I search for the artist, I see the albums, I click and I expect the album to be fucking clicked, but no ... just no
3. I search for an artist and sometimes it happens that it finds nothing, simply nothing, white
4. frequent application crashes
5. I create a playlist, save it offline, I want to add a track and also save it offline, it will be added, but I won't play it offline even if his phone is on
6. Slightly chaotic at times
7. I shuffle the playlist and it keeps playing one and the same song, okay, I play the first one and wait for the next one to play. No. the same one is still playing
8. There's more.
The application and the service as a whole still has a long way to go to reach the level of simplicity, stability and common use like spotify. However, I still trust and will continue to pay for Apple music after the trial period expires.
I installed 8.4, but not Apple Music.
I have no problems on the air 2 either. Apple music … pretty good. There is really a lot of "recorded" (not only) music...
I listen to Deezer and everything I want is there. So far Apple Musik does not accept me. Audiobooks are essential for me. Apple has improved them a bit, but they are not very good at it, they still look at audiobooks as songs. This is evident from the fact that the application displays the remaining time of one chapter or the entire audiobook.
Maybe some low end I have a Note 3. Android 5.0. It doesn't fall, it doesn't cut, it doesn't slide. Browsing the web, editing tables, playing games, all OK. 32GB of memory in the mobile phone 64GB on the fast memory. Everything at hand. Movies, notebooks, photos. Connection with samsung TV great. Friends on the iphone - I'll give it to you. It didn't suit me. The claim of Android's unreliability and stuckness is not as true as the claim of Apple's super-reliability.
I don't use it much on the Note 3. I can have several applications open at once, but I hardly ever use it. But it can be better on a tablet. 9.7 packages against 5.7 split them
