iOS12
Just updated yesterday and my X feels faster and longer battery life. Seems older devices benefit even more. Makes upgrading to the XS not really worth it unless you're going for the Max. What do you guys think? I notice fewer typos or incorrect spell correction while typing as well.

It's been discussed on a different thread, but minor performance improvements on older iPhones. Apparently huge improvement on the 10. Battery is the same. Many more autocorrect issues as it seems to have unlearned everything... |

A few friends of mine updated their iphone 6 and it is running much faster than before and really breathe life into their old phones.
I think it is awesome that Apple is working on improving the performance of 5-6 year old phones. Apple prices their phones at a premium but you get premium service for the price. With the $30 new battery replacement deal and iOS12, they are making old iphones viable for a long time. What other phone company is working on improving the performance of old phones?

My 8 seems a bit faster, although I'm still having the occasional glitch where the phone closes out of whatever I'm in and goes back to the home screen.

Yeah it's not too often but when it does happen it can be annoying. I was using Google maps in the car the other day and the thing closed out of the maps completely. Then I'm trying to pull the maps back up on my phone and the magnet mount falls out of the vent and the phone goes under the seat.

Yeah I've seen a lot of apps being updated to say "to support iOS 12", and I've been having this issue with the Bimmerpost app, so I thought it was the lack of update. But it's not, because it's happening to the mail app more frequently. Hopefully they fix it without adding new bugs lol |

I was playing around with the new measuring tool in a boring meeting today. At first I was wondering how I got a measuring app. I know I didn't download one. Then I figured out it must have come with the update to iOS12. It works pretty well. I pointed it at a standard piece of copier paper and it read the dimensions as 8-1/2 by 11. Not sure I'll have much use for it, but it might come in handy once in a while.

OK, OK... has a 9 and 1/2 inch dick. To find them, just go to the political forum, everyone has one...

I tried measuring a box that is 8"x8"x10"... it came out to 5"x7"x10". Only the edge that was facing the camera was measured correctly. I tried another box that was 10x14x22.. it came out as 7x10x19... totally off. So a limitation to be aware of... 2d measuring seems to work ok but I would still use a actual measuring tape to be sure.
