Don't Install iOS 14.8.1 If You're Nervous About Bugs

If you're having an excellent experience on iOS 14.8 or older iOS software, and iOS 14.8.1's change log doesn't blow you away and/or you're nervous about it potentially hurting your iPhone's performance, you might want to wait. 

There's a lot to like about Apple's new software update, but the software is already causing problems for some iPhone users.

The current list of iOS 14 problems includes some familiar faces: abnormal battery drain, issues with first and third-party applications, Bluetooth problems, problems with Wi-Fi, issues with cellular data, installation issues, lag, random reboots, issues with Face ID, and problems with Touch ID. 

If these issues concern you, you might want to wait for Apple's next version of iOS.
