    Content blockers are 64-bit only (5s or greater) unfortunately. They still work with 32-bit devices. I have been using Block Party side-loaded on my iPhone 5 for a couple of weeks, but I guess Apple have performance concerns.

    I thought iOS 9 was coming with Wifi Assist - whereby it would drop a weak wifi signal for a mobile data network.
    I don't see it in my wifi settings anyways.

    Can anyone confirm if Weather Underground widget is working on the today panel? It has been blank for me since joining beta program. Would revert to final version of 9.0 from 9.1 beta if it's working. Thanks

    Cheers man. That's a real shame, I'm gonna try your app now, at least I have the Air 2 to use crystal in I suppose.

    Actually as a fellow 5 user do you find wifi dropping?

    You can't update from 9.1 to 9.0

    You need to restore your device to 9.0 using iTunes.

    Just installed iOS 9. Is there a way to remove the news stories under search when you swipe left?

    It will be downgrade, make sure you have 9.1 backup incase you can not restore backup to 9.0, atleast you can go back to 9.1. Here is handy guide

    Tried a different podcast client, or unsubscribe and resubscribe?

    Try Overcast. Its a great podcast player that's already been updated for iOS 9.

    Thanks both. The BBC FOOC podcast says the last time I refreshed it was August 13th, which is baffling. It only seems to update if I connect to iTunes and downloads episodes that way. Tried unsubscribing/resubscribing on the device itself, nada. Elsewhere, the Bill Maher podcast, episode 363 had the text details (panellist info) that didn't match what was the audio. They titled it 'new version', so maybe there was a technical snafu. The Top Charts and Search functions don't seem to do anything either. Running 9.1.

    With the new low power mode It should give an iPhone around an hour more battery life.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Heisenberg1


    iPad Air 2 is so much quicker on iOS 9.

    It's an hour extra in normal usage and with low power mode an additional 3 hours, according to Macrumors.

    Blockr is another good ad block lads just got it for 99 cents, it seems to block far more than crystal from what I can see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,344 ✭✭✭brophs


    Does anyone else have the issue of Spotlight search not working properly? It only searches my messages from the last few months or so. It was the same on iOS8, though I'd hoped they'd have solved it this time around.

    How does Blockr deal with the white space left by banner ads like here?
