Yep. May be days or weeks before it's offered to any given phone though.

Mine is installing -- surprisingly quick download considering millions are presumably doing it at the same time.

I never install iOS or Mac OS updates so soon after release. Seen too many bricks.

Meh. I have regular backups so not an issue as such, just a faff. Network is dead slow to boot so ordinary surfing is slow let alone this. Time to see what is on telly.

Edit. Lightning strike perhaps?

Just downloaded iOS10 on my iP6. Seems ok, initial thoughts are the messaging is over complicated now and too many options. The being said majority of my messaging is done via WhatsApp these days anyway.

May as well ask here ..

Is there a way of not clearing the lock notifications when you unlock?

For example, I had 2 SMS and 3 Emails. I swipe, unlock, and reply to an SMS and now all the other notifications have gone.

I used to use LockInfo a few years back, but stopped when jailbreaking became a PITA.

Having big problems with the new Apple Maps, when you set a point and then press "directions" it does nothing. I can live with this, but doesn't help when you are up in the hills abroad!

Not sure I am reading this right but swipe down after unlocking, that is swipe finger from off the main screen down, then swipe left or right depending on settings?

When is it out? I put BETA stuff on my iPad but never my phone or laptop because I use them daily and they are pretty crucial to work.

20th I think. On the Beta at the moment but back up documents first. The iCloud documents thing is a tad confusing at first.

Better still, understand the iCloud integration, cos I sure as hell don't and do not know where my documents are. They are there, I can get at them across all my devices, but I want a copy on my iMac. The info says yes, my local hard drive search says no. Hidden folder perhaps, not checked that.

Have you got the iCloud drive set up in Finder on your Mac?
