Apple about five months ago, released a mobile operating system iOS 9, which brought many new features. The most important ones include: a six-digit code lock, improved maps, Siri, notes, multitasking, and also the new Spotlight search. Most users of older iPhones that have 32-bit processor architecture have experienced an overall slowdown in the system after the update. This category includes iPhone 5(c) and iPhone 4S. Pro these phones Apple also disabled some features that the new version of the system offers. However, some users complained and blamed it Apple, that it is deliberately turning off features on older devices, allegedly nudging the switch to newer iPhone models.
It's been two days since Apple has released the latest update to the public. It is labeled iOS 9.2.1, since then many users of older iPhones have noticed an increase in stability and performance, some apps launch even faster than on iOS 8.4.1. Unfortunately, the overall launch of the iPhone on iOS 9.2.1 takes a little longer, but on the other hand we restart the phone maxat least once every quarter. If you use iOS 8 or older system on your iPhone 5 or iPhone 4S, you don't have to worry about updating to the latest system, it will definitely not slow down the overall operation of your phone. In the video below, you can see a general comparison of both versions of the system on the iPhone 4S

Think it would also help the iPad Mini(1st Gen)?
I still have it there. iOS 7.0.1: D

if you put on ipad mini from 2012 iOS 9.2.1 from 2016, so you create a freezer, I wouldn't do that
iOs 9 was supposed to be mainly about optimization, so version 9.0 was supposed to be faster. Better now than never.
Hehe, I don't crash... I stay on 7.1.3 na iPhone 5C, I have already learned from the past.
freee: I'm using 9.2.1 and it's fine. Actually, if I'm being honest, I don't even feel any slowdown. In the first versions, I had a problem with multitasking and fast password entry (the mobile phone did not register pressing the first number), but that has been fixed.
rasslayer: I wouldn't try.
"However, on the other hand, we restart the phone max"at least once a quarter"
So on the phone (5s) it's not such a problem, but on the iPad, for example air I see a restart - the system crashes quite often. Miniit happens a little once a week with normal activity of the type Safari takes it to the pad.
I've never seen that before on older versions.
It's something similar on a Mac. I quite feel that I switched to the last osx. A problem with sleeping, from time to time an application crashes. It wasn't common on previous osx either.
It's slowly starting to remind me windows from whom I am just for these nestability ran away.
Maybe he should apple think about the direction it is going.
Jaromír Miko, even if it's for nothing else, it's for that oneI will stay at the early call reception ios7..when I see how it works on iPhone 6-6S, so I'll pay extra when I see her pick up the call and say hello 3 times.. no thanks, I'll wait until she endures it, and then we'll see each other.. or I'll go to a competitor, where I'll swallow those problems sooner, considering the price..

Definitely don't give it, I did it for you iPad mini 1 and solder. There is no way to sleep anymore. Fuck!
Amnart: he already made a freezer out of it iOS 7 ?.
Otherwise my iPhone 5 runs on iOS 9 just like my friend's iP6.
iPad mini 1st gen what is in the family runs on iOS 9.2.1 as on iOS 7 is maybe a little better, but animations and blending are turned off, which puts a strain on the GPU.
How is it that such an old mobile phone has a color transparent setting and on the iPad3 it is only gray transparent?
Apple especially from iOS7 has made memory management worse. Previously, it was not a problem to update multiple apps at once or one larger one if the device was low on memory, but now it often crashes or the update is interrupted. Android used to have such problems. It's a shame.
