Over the last couple of years, iOS has rightfully come under criticism for beingĀ less than rock-solid stable. This year’s version appears to be aimed at offering better performance, increased stability and a more predictive user experience in which the operating system tries to anticipate user needs.
In addition, iOS 9 is packed with refinements and new features that try to anticipate and volunteer useful information to users based on what they’re doing, along with under-the-hood optimizations that should give iPhone users additional battery life. iPad users, especially those with newer iPads, should consider iOS 9 a must-have update, as it unlocks multitasking features that power users have wanted.
