Apple Responds to iOS 8 Shortcomings

Greetings from Mobile Generated News® MoGN!


Apple has acknowledged problems with an iOS update that was released yesterday. The update was designed to fix issues in the original iOS 8 released last Wednesday, September 17, 2014.

According to Apple Support, the update 8.01 was designed to fix many glitches in the new software including the much publicized Health App. They are working on a new update which should address many of the problems with the extensive operating system change from iOS 7 to iOS 8. “We are also preparing iOS 8.0.2 with a fix for the issue, and will release it as soon as it's ready in the next few days.”

Complaints were reported that cellphone service and Touch ID were not working.

Smartphones are getting so smart and more complex that these type of issues are becoming commonplace. As we learned developing our Mobile Generated News® App, the technology is changing so fast that even the geniuses at Apple can’t seem to get it right the first time.

Do you think this is hurting Apple’s reputation or is it acceptable given the difference between laboratory testing and experience learned when technology is released to the real world?
