iOS 8.4.1 for iPhone & iPad: 10 Things to Expect

iOS 8.4.1 Problems

We also expect iOS 8.4.1 to bring its own problems to iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users. iOS updates, even small ones like iOS 8.4.1, always bring their own collection of issues and we don't think iOS 8.4.1, even after a stint in beta, will be any different. 

The iOS 8.4.1 beta is in place so that Apple and its partners can detect major widespread issues ahead of time. There will almost certainly be some smaller problems that slip through the cracks. There always are and there always will be. Software isn't never perfect. 

We'll likely see battery drain problems, connectivity problems, problems with Exchange, problems with cellular data, and more emerge in the aftermath of the iOS 8.4.1 update. We don't expect these iOS 8.4.1 issues to be widespread but you'll still want to think about waiting before you install the iOS 8.4.1 update. 

iOS problems are unpredictable and they can strike at any time. Prepare your device your phone or tablet for its release and you'll minimize the risk.
