Most likely, the issues are being experienced because of the huge number of users trying to download iOS 9, so the problem should be fixed as the bits are being delivered to devices across the world. As expected, not all users will get it simultaneously, so, instead of waiting for the new OS to be rolled out to their devices, they can manually download and install it.
Those who managed to get their hands on a working version enjoyed a new low-power mode that will reduce or turn off non-essential tasks such as visual effects and automatic downloads. Some features may not be available across all regions or languages.
The second way to update to iOS 9 is through iTunes. It’s not a major update, but more of an evolution of iOS 8 and the flat, parallax-infused design language introduced to iDevices with iOS 7 in 2015. The iPad now has some very powerful multitasking features. iOS 9 lets you install content blockers from the App Store to block ads in Safari. If you have an iPhone 4s or newer, you can upgrade to iOS 9 – just be sure to backup your phone first.
To update to iOS 9, following the following steps. Therefore it’s better to back up your device before one decides to update their device.
Now there’s no official word from Apple as to when the News app will be launching in the UK, but they did reveal at the announcement that it would be coming to the United States and the UK first, among a few other countries. Like iOS 7 this was a big release, and with any big change comes the potential for big bugs. The search screen will also show contacts you’re scheduled to meet and those you talk with the most.

Siri can now find photos and videos using criteria like dates and locations, or set a reminder based on what’s currently onscreen with a phrase like “remind me about this tonight”.
