Yes
I updated my iPad to the latest iOS software yesterday, and it's the slowest that is ever been since I bought it, is anyone else having the same problem?

Cheers.
 
Nope all good here on 8.1.3 (Had some odd crashes and reboots on 8.1.2) but this one seems ok so far.

Hmm, it's been slow at home and also when I went to a local shopping centre and used their free wifi.

Cheers.

If you mean slow as in data speed (rather than slow in operation, which I initially thought), also no, as quick as it's always been.

Just checked, I'm on a 50Mbps line, iPad just tested at 54Mbps, 24ms ping.
 
Straight after an update it would be rebuilding caches and create spotlight indexes etc Depending how much you have got on there it could take a while. Hence battery life and perception of speed can be affected straight following an update.

Saying that, my devices have been just fine..

Which iPad is it? I have an iPad 2 and that has been painfully slow since updating to the latest version of the OS.

OK, I'll see how it goes.

Cheers all.

Have you considered doing a Network settings reset? Just make sure you know your wifi key as it will forget all saved keys when you do it.

8.1.2 did make my iPad3 unstable and woefully slow. 8.1.3 seems to have sorted that.

Try turning off and then back on plug into mains and running (i.e. Not sleeping) whilst you're at work or asleep. I think sometimes an update breaks some internal links/indexing that need to rebuild

Cheers, I did the later is much faster.
 
My iPad 2 is running on the latest just fine.

Anyone been brave enough to try the latest 8.1.2 on their iPad2 yet, * nearly killed mine and only just made usable again with 8.1, will 8.1.2 kill it again anyone updated yet.

The newest firmware is actually 8.1.3, it's running fine on all our iOS devices, including the iPad 2.
 
I updated to ios8 and had all sorts of problems. I'm still finding them as I bought a 30pin iPad to hdmi adapter the other day and found that it won't work at all. It would appear that it worked fine with ios7 but not the 'upgrade'. Seems that Apple intentionally do this on each upgrade, locking out any third party accessories. I'm done with Apple and won't stay with them when I look for an IPad replacement.
