Okay, now that I have been playing with iOS 8.0.2 on the ipad 4 for the past two days, here are my initial impressions. My disappointment from ios 7.1 carries over. The lag in rotation with the keyboard on screen remains. I have tried rebooting, resetting and setting up as new, but the problem...
I am happy to report that the 7th attempt has been successful :). The update is installed. I will post my initial impressions, bugs etc. later. Thanks for all the suggestions and responses.
Thanks Andrew. That is exactly what I will do when it's time to update again. Surely, the OTA process...
I have already turned off the firewall and antivirus temporarily. The 7th attempt is in progress- 1.2GB downloaded already. Hope it gets downloaded this time.
Thanks for all the responses. Well, I have been trying to download the update (1.85 GB) through iTunes, but keep getting the 'network timed out error'. I have already disabled the firewall and the antivirus software temporarily, but to no avail. As I type this, I am on my 5th attempt at the...
Starting a new thread as I haven't been able to find any information about the performance of iOS8 on the 4th gen iPad.
Anyone who has upgraded, could you please share how the iPad4 performs after the upgrade? I am currently not sure whether to upgrade as the jump from ios6 to ios7 wasn't a...
I updated my iPad 4 to 7.1.1 last night. Frankly, couldn't notice any difference. I had hoped that it would solve the rotation lag issue with onscreen keyboard on, but not to be.
Yeah, I saw them as free downloads on the app store and wasted no time in downloading Pages and Keynote. Don't really need Numbers, but will download that as well.
Even I find this strange. My iPad 4 seems to have gained some extra battery life after the update. There are other issues which have cropped up after the update, but battery life is certainly not one of them.
1. Yes, I have already tried doing a reset.
2. What I actually meant is that the locking and unlocking mechanism is rather inconsistent - the device would just not unlock at the press of the unlock button and sometimes requires multiple presses.
Issue#1 vanishes when I activate the 'Increase...
My ipad 4 lags severely when I try to rotate the orientation with the onscreen keyboard activated, regardless of the app being used. It wasn't there prior to the 7.1 update. Can someone please check the same and post back?
Thanks in advance.
Now that my upgrade is done, here is a list of issues that I have experienced on my iPad 4 -
1. Lag while changing the orientation with the onscreen keyboard activated. This is pretty bad actually.
2. The lock/unlock mechanism is mostly hit or miss.
3. Gesture-based actions are not smooth.

Okay, I finally managed to download and install the 7.1 update. Couldn't do that through my home wifi, but my office broadband turned out to be better. Will update on the experience later.
Thanks for all the support! :thumbs:
