Recently updated and HATE it! When sharing a contact, you cannot include notes. OOOOLLLLDDDD and long deleted texts are showing up in the "Unknown Senders" - the contact isn't even in my list any longer. Tried to send a new text to a contact, and it pulled up an old, deleted text, from 3 months ago to add to. The camera app is HORRIBLE and cumbersome. The format to delete emails has changed and you have a tendency to by fat fingered. Connectivity to various apps is slow or nonresponsive. WHEN DOES THE FIX COME OUT?!?

Yea we know. For some reason some people think that saying they are going to buy an Android effects us or maybe it simply makes them feel better. Who knows, I really don't care what device someone uses and in my extended family there are both Android and iPhones. Others think that YELLING will get them the appropriate attention. This is simply a support site made up from other users like you and is not a Social Media site where that kind of behavior is commonplace.

Well hundreds of millions of users seem to think that their iPhone is working just fine. So you should consider troubleshooting the issues with your specific iPhone.
