My lads been showing me some of the new augemented reality (?) apps. They’re quite good.
The new keyboard style is quite handy.
Been having a good look around it and there’s quite a few interesting additions.The new keyboard style is quite handy.
Recording the home screen, the way on my iPad apps are open and retrieved for example are both very clever
Just updated (iPhone 6S+)
Apart from joking with my mates on FB before I did that “I may be some time”, it did all seem to work OK.
My Siri - she’s cute - does seem more natural, but I don’t really use her much. So we’ll have to see if I use her more.
Music is probably the one thing I expect to use an awful lot, but I can’t really see any significant change yet
The Control Centre thingy just looks and feels a clunky clunky of a thing. I feel like some sort of drunk two-year-old stabbing the screen with a blunt baseball bat....
But, hey! It ain’t broken!

I’ve just upgraded on a 2017 ipad.
Like the dock and control centre.
Keyboard I like the way I don’t have to press a button now for special characters, but it seems slightly easier to accidentally add special characters to words, but generally it’s all good.
Spotlight search now puts apps below web results and hides them under the keyboard so not a fan of that really.
The split screen seems to work just as well as before to me contrary to another poster, just a different way to invoke it.
Files app is a nice addition but I’d only use it for google drive, and I’m not a fan of the way it functions, rather just use the drive app.
Notes app looks better but I’m fully sold up to google keep.
IOS 11 apparently fixes compatibility issues with external dacs which is a good thing as I’ve got one on the way.
Overall not a bad change so far as I can see on an iPad at least.
