Reasons Not to Install iOS 9.2 Right Now

Reasons Not to Install iOS 9.2 Right Now

The iOS 9.2 update is a tempting upgrade for many reasons. There are some reasons to upgrade right away. But before you make the move, make sure you take a look at the other side. 

There are also some reasons why you might want to take a rain check, at least for the time being. We've outlined some of them here. If you are about to leave on a trip or if you're going to need your apps to be stable for an upcoming work project, you might want to hold off until after your trip or meeting. 

You might also want to avoid it if you're having a great experience on whatever you're on right now. iOS 9.2 is a solid update but it isn't perfect and there's a potential for problems. Waiting a few days or even a few weeks could prove beneficial. 

Ultimately, the decision is all yours. We just want to make sure you weigh your options before you make your move. Remember, there's no going back to iOS 9.2 once you make the move.

    I upgraded from 9.1 to 9.2 this morning and boy do I regret it! My battery is draining like crazy, even with minor usage. Easily four or five times as fast.

    My iPhone 5s is best it has ever been on 9.1, the battery life was terrible when I got it at launch, couldn’t get past mid day and I had to use one of those giant battery cases for two years. Since upgrading to 9.1 its been like a new phone, I can easily get through till mid afternoon or even all day if I’m not using it too much with a full charge, just as well because it wouldn’t accept the battery after the update ;-)

    Question, can you downgrade again if you back up?

    Nick, if I were you I’d just stick with 9.1 unless you have any problems with it that 9.2 is supposed to fix. If not just stick with it. From what I’ve seen 9.2 is aimed at people with the newer iphones.
    And you can go back to 9.1 after upgrading, there are instructions on this site and lots of others on the interweb.

    My iPhone (5S) is also acting really weird. It is showing restart screen every 2-3 minutes. Plus drained 100% of battery in approx an hour.
