This doesn't affect me but is it possible to downgrade from iOS8 to iOS 7.1.2?

For my part I think IOS eight is a no go release, some of the voiceover bugs that are listed as critical on the apple vis website should have been fixed before the public release, as they were present in the gold master gm release. To find, for instance, that because of a braille display setting, voiceover would break down is pretty poor, and also to find that you can't answer a phonecall in an acceptable manner if playing music before hand, nor dial with confidence using the dialpad is very poor. Not getting into an android verses apple discussion here, but should such a well known company have allowed such a major release into the public domain if the bugs listed have been communicated to apple? I think they should not have done so, the problems with Bluetooth just put the lid on it for me. Glad I didn't update, and I'm sticking with 7.1.2 for now. I will await the service fix in about a month, then see where I go from there. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Nutt Sent: 19 September 2014 10:10 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: problems with bluetooth devices and ios8 Hi Janet, If you're a Bluetooth girl, you really shouldn't have updated yet. Bluetooth in iOS 8 is buggy in the extreme.
