4 Reasons Not to Install iOS 12.5.6 & 10 Reasons You Should
Don't Install iOS 12.5.6 If You're Unprepared | |||||||||||||||
 | |||||||||||||||
If you haven't prepared yourself, or your device, for the move to iOS 12.5.6 you'll want to hold off on a download until you've done so. It's impossible to predict how your device will handle the transition from your current version of iOS to iOS 12.5.6 and that's precisely why we recommend doing a few minutes of prep work before you install the new software on your phone or tablet. If you don't know where to start we've put together a guide that will walk you through the pre-installation process. Spending a few minutes prepping for iOS 12.5.6 will go a long way toward preventing problems so make sure you take the time to properly prepare your device for the transition. | |||||||||||||||

iOS 12.0.1 is draining the battery of my phone. My phone is also heating you

iOS 12.1 has a SERIOUS security flaw, enabling stealing your contacts via a mere phone call!!! DO NOT UPGRADE!!!

Fix the Facebook photo orientation please. Landscape photos keep going in portrait mode when using iPad in landscape mode. I am using iPad Pro First generation. 12.9 inch. 128 Gig if that helps.

Hi!
I have an iPhone SE..and now I have the iOS 12.1
I am really scared to download this new update 12.1.3, because I’m afraid my phone is gonna crash, get really slow, or something else that makes it worse.
I think I’ll just wait a little bit more., What do you think?
It does seem like my battery goes down very quickly..and my phone is not that old (I bought it in the fall of 2017..
Apart from the battery (and that it dies in the cold.. which it actually always have), it works fine.
But I miss being able to take Live Photo’s on Facetime!! I have nieces and nephews in other countries, so I really want that back. Is that feature on this new update?
Hope I’ll get some feedback from you guys!☺️ Is it best to just wait with this update?

I haven’t updated my ios in a REALLY long time. I’m on 12.1 and I always read about problems that new ios brings and I’m so happy I haven’t updated. I don’t have any problems with connecting to wifi or cellular data and I can still make calls. So it’s up to you if you roll the dice and update. I personally choose not to.

Also that new feature screen time could be why your battery drains so fast. Try turning it off.

Do you guys every provide content without dividing it into multiple pages and 1-2 paragraphs per page? I bet you’d get more quality visitors if you’d actually provide an article on one to two pages. As soon as i see the page 1 of 13 count, I just go elsewhere…

This is the most important feedback for this website. It’s such a ridiculous effort to get ANY information out of this stupid site. All redundant paragraphs. Click after click for vague, meaningless, not committed information. Why ever bother?

My thoughts exactly. Article sounds like it was written by an adolescent AI Chinese programmer. Specificilly designed for SEO, told me everything except what I wanted to know.

Agree with you 100%! The slideshow display should be optional, not the default. Plus, if to be the default, then there should be a single page option.
I’m not going to waste my time clicking through *15* pages!
They should have provided a nice table listing the 4 cons and 11 pros!

i agree. I don’t otimor knowledge to understand an update that is saying tthe same thing over and over. Between that and the pages of advertising I am having difficulty keeping track of what ever new information there is. I also just don’t have the skills to understand what most of the updates.
If my phone says it will automatically update that is fine. I don’t know what it means or expect me to sit and study and some users expect no futher need to do anything related to update the phone changes and ignore them because they don’t know how to do it. Just expect everything to work.

Rarely do I have to read so many words and get so little useful information. What a WASTE!

It’s because the owner of the site signed up for the crappy Google Ads with the hope 1000’s of morons will actually click on a dumb ad.
Whenever I see a site with Google Ada on it I know it’s crap!
Dump the ads and get credibility with readers. Content is king and flooding a site with crap ads that net you pennies is foolish.

After installing IOS 12.2 onto my iphone x i see a massive improvement, however, when installed onto my iphone 6s the improvement was not noticeable at all

Big Issue with 12.2, WI-Fi keeps dropping out and wont reconnect. This is to a network that its been connected to for years. This is on both an 8+ and a pad. Was fine on 12.1. Also when trying the ‘fix’ it refuses to accept the password, nothing apart from IOS121.2 has changed for over 5 years. Come on Apple, this is costing me money on data useage.

iOS 12.3.1 broken safari privacy severely. Safari kidnap me to app store app whenever I click app advertisement link, without any popup alert, without asking, without granting. Till iOS 12.3 I was protected from app advertisement link kidnap by popup alert. and I was able to cancel redirection by just clicking cancel button. It is not possible anymore. I am thinking that this issue may not a bug. If apple made this change intentionally, I will leave iOS world and go into android9+ world. At least, Android is not barring me running code for “VPN based DNS blocking”. This is critical to prevent fingerprinting in any mobile OS. iOS environment is no more a specially good for anti fingerprinting. Zeroing advertisement ID is rather a joke. iOS has been being made for just their money not a privacy. Try to think why Apple is exclusively possessing webviewer (webkit) in the html5 generation. for your privacy? No way!

If I see “if you skipped …..” one more time . I thought all my updates were current, guess not ♀️. Certainly did not deliberately omit them! This article is crap, don’t have time or the brain power to decipher what I SKIPPED, which is a poor selection of words!!! I’m just letting the upgrade download when it downloads and be done with it!!! Agree with the poster who said pro/con list is all we need, not this diatribe of bs!!!

Not being funny but this article is fairly useless. It lists all the changes IF you haven’t updated through the various versions of iOS12, which most people have so there’s little point reading it. Rather than having 15 pages of un-needed information, maybe try having 1 page of needed information otherwise it’s a waste of most people’s time. Just sayin’.

Pretty poor exposition of changes in 12.4. There is more that is important to this user than just security. Apple has a long history of trashing good apps and features when they can make more money by doing so. Just look at what they have done to the music apps over the years. Consumers ofApple products are being treated like sheep when we are not told about changes we might not want, and I think it is the responsibility of any so-called “reviewer “ to provide us with that level of information or get out of the business of writing reviews.

You are going to lose videos app after you upgrade 12.4.1 iOS version. So you will lost all your video files also.

My I phone 7 is performing very poorly. Usually just for general browsing, despite having a strong wi fi connection and / or 4G. “the Circle Of Death” prevails like I’ve never experienced on anything before, really painful experience.
My near 6 year old I pad air with a chip a good 4 generations behind the phone slaughters my phone for performance. I’ve had enough of it now, and after 10 years of I phones I’m going Android next.

Strong and unique passwords are suggested automatically when creating an account or changing a password in most apps and in Safari.

2 days ago I upgraded my IOS iphone 6 plus to IOS 12.5.2. after install, problems start to appear. Suddenly it likes to restart itself, then Wi-Fi and Bluetooth cannot be activated, until the touch screen is a little problematic. for my case I do not find a battery that runs out quickly. has anyone experienced the same incident. anyone know how to solve this? thank You.

Well if you were sitting on the fence about upgrading to iOS 12.5.4… too bad. It seems Apple is forcing it to be installed without approval now. I only ever enact iOS upgrades via iTunes, after having taken a full backup. Tonight my iPhone advised me that it had just finished installing iOS 12.5.4. Thanks, Apple.
