    Yep, plenty of fixes but thank god they have reduced the width of the full stop key in the browsers and elsewhere.

    All done & dusted on iPhone & iPad painless!

    Yeah it's a a fairly harmless update so far so good!

    The full stop seems much better!

    Also they've added the Irish flag :

    :🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪


    But despite everything no Siri Irish voice.

    Updated without any issues. Everything seems smoother and faster. 🖖

    Boards doesn't handle emoji support at all though :(

    iPhone 6 plus no longer rotates upside down :D

    Biggest thing for me is in Safari the space button is much longer, see attached image

    My phone just exploded after the update. Damn you Apple.

    They almost certainly have an app for that.

    In 8.3 did they enable the feature to download free Apps without the need to enter your password?

    I had to tap to view account & sign in first.

    That's weird - TouchID wasn't working for me for App Store purchases on iOS 8.2, but it is now with 8.3.

    Trying to add a photo to a comment on boards is causing safari to crash on my phone since I updated the software.

    A few of you have written in to say Touch ID isn't working to authorize iTunes or App Store purchases, and/or for third party apps, following the iOS 8.3 update.
    We've not been able to duplicate the problem on any of our devices, but after helping several people, we have come across what looks to be a working Touch ID fix for those affected. Best of all, it's a simple one!
    How to fix Touch ID not working in iOS 8.3

    1. Launch Settings on your iPhone or iPad
    2. Tap on Touch ID & Passcode
    3. Enter your Passcode or Password
    4. Toggle iTunes & App Store to OFF
    5. Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    6. Reboot your iPhone or iPad. (Here's how)
    7. Enter your Passcode or Password at the Lock screen
    8. Launch Settings on your iPhone or iPad
    9. Tap on Touch ID & Passcode
    10. Enter your Passcode or Password
    11. Toggle iTunes & App Store to ON
    That should fix any issues with using Touch ID to authorize App Store or iTunes Store purchases.
    For in-app use, remember you may have to enter a password in the specific app before Touch ID will work again in an extension (because your iPhone or iPad rebooted during update). For example, you'll have to launch the 1Password app and enter your Master Password at least once before the 1Password action extension will work with Touch ID in other apps.
    With any luck, that'll get Touch ID working again for you in iTunes and App Store, and you'll be happily authorizing away! If you're having the problem, let me know if this fixed you up!

    My wifi issue on iPad Air seems to be fixed after the update. Connection would be lost each day even though it still showed as connected to the network.

    Was an issue only with iPad as my phone was fine.

    I don't know if it's related to 8.3 or not but I'm being prompted to enter my icloud password at least once a day now.

    For iCloud Backup? You need to connect to power and start and complete the backup. If you’ve already disconnected from power the backup will fail and it will prompt you again tomorrow.

    Works fine on the full site but not touch, strangely.

    8.3 installed fine here, no issues. Only noticed the full stop being smaller now, but it's definitely welcomed.

    About time for them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,657 ✭✭✭Luckycharms_74


    Does it fix the " removal of shortcuts" issue ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,888 ✭✭✭9de5q7tsr8u2im

    Noticed my camera won't focus and photos coming out kind of blurry since I updated.

    I've read others are experiencing the same issue. Anyone else having this problem?

    Tried everything including resetting and setting up as new. Guess I'll have to wait for 8.4! :(
