Have you downloaded the app? Have you then added it to your keyboard list?

Edit: Heh, helps if you download the right app... Swiftkey keyboard rather than Swiftkey Note. I'm such an idiot haha.

I just got a message from a mate in this situation and can't stop laughing as he's having to delete a ton of photos and videos just to fit the fat OS on. So...who ordered a 16gb iPhone 6 in ere?!

This is why I installed via iTunes.

Same as me, why would you not update via itunes?

People still use that? How antiquated!

Update was painless. I did it over wifi and it was interesting how it went into some sort of queue system. I remember last year trying to download and it would creep along for ages, fail, start again, repeat etc. This time it submitted a request, waited until it was ready and then installed overnight.

Woke up this morning with iOS8 running. Yet to really try it out, got some time this morning. Using an iPad 3, how are others finding it on an 'older' iPad'?

No problems installing on 16Gb devices here

Do think my iPad mini (non-retina) seems slightly more juddery though when moving between stuff.

wingman · 18 Sep 2014 at 10:22

Finally downloaded and installed.

Updates seem good, love Swift Keyboard and the new predictive typing. Replying to messages inside an app is a nice feature. Photo editing is good, but still can't see a function to keep the original photo?

yup just had to delete everything off my 16gig 5s to install

sucks

My iPad mini retina, is a but laggy on some animations.

Changing the orientation of the store, seems to drop a frame of the animation.

Not smooth.

Just had a quick try of the Swiftkey keyboard - it's lovely, but it ain't staying installed. Doesn't work unless you enable "full access" which basically allows the sending of ALL KEYSTROKES back to their own servers. NO THANKS!

any 1 know any apps that work with the health app?

It doesn't send passwords. iOS reverts to the default keyboard for this.

Not currently enabled due to a last minute bug.

Swiftkey isn't working for me, can't see the new keyboard. 1Password isn't showing up in the extension menu. Is iOS 8 heavily gimped on iPhone 5?

Thanks for reminding me.

Finally got my favourite keyboard working across all my devices.

But typing other stuff, notably credit card/cv2 numbers etc can(will) be transmit.

Brum Man · 18 Sep 2014 at 11:00

Has anyone managed to get instant hotspot to work yet? I'm on O2, not sure if it's supposed to 'just work' or if it's only available on some carriers?

When trying to connect my iPad my iPhone still appears in the normal wifi list as a locked connection, which I take is not meant to be the case?

slinxy · 18 Sep 2014 at 11:22

I'm sure I saw a screen shot of the home page in landscape but with the dock running down the side... but I can't seem to find the option to do it? any ideas?

Thanks

I think that's iPhone6+ only if I remember rightly. Not sure about iPads.
