double tap your home button

that's one of the more obvious visual changes. just kicked off my download and it's giving me about a 20 minute download time which is fair enough
Okay that's pretty cool, feels a lot smoother to close your apps down.. And a lot quicker. But still doesn't feel that enough has been changed/improved so far.

Not sure if it's on iOS 9. Mine updated to 9.1 GM. But if you swipe your home screen to the right you should see news stories there as well as recent apps you've used and contacts you've contacted most. You can save your most recent contacts in Siri Suggestions. You can also set up Hey Siri to respond to your voice only.

It does. You need to go into settings and update your password to 6 digits.

Anyone had any issues updating OTA? On Twitter some people were saying they got an error message as so many people were trying to update at the same time. Some users have been updating via iTunes instead.

I haven't tried yet, will try OTA for my iPhone 6 and my misses 5S in abit. I'll do the iPad 2 at some point aswell

No probs. Not sure if the battery low power mode option gives the battery an extra hours power or not.

I think that's the idea - i think it's supposed to turn off a lot of background functions and other bits that could cause battery drain. I've read a few articles that suggest it might squeeze an extra hour's life out of it.

I've been using it for a while now and don't think it adds an extra hour to the battery life.

I like the new notes app - it's been completely overhauled.

And Maps is handy also with public transport information and timetables. I like the way you just have to double tap the home button to activate Apple Pay also.

Not sure if it's available on 9.0. It's on 9.1. Maybe they will update it in the next few days.

Hi Scroll to the right.
That's not the news app. That's just news stories. The news app has newspapers and dedicated favourites you pick to add to the app.

Oh joy another app added to the homescreen that was perfectly fine as a download before.
Why oh why do we need the Find My iPhone app permanently?
