Siri, design and Apple Maps
iOS 9 is launching today, and from the beta, we know it’s already way better than iOS 8, thanks to new features that make the iPhone and iPad software easier to use.
Siri is smarter, Apple Maps has been improved and the notifications drop-down menu is now sorted logically. Best of all, every device that works with iOS 8 works with iOS 9.
iPads get the most benefit from this year’s operating system update. New multi-tasking functionality, especially for the iPad Air 2, finally fulfills the tablet’s promise of productivity on the go.
While buggy in its current state and lacking some key Android features, there’s a lot to like about iOS 9 ahead of the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus launch next week, and iPad Pro release date in November.

iOS 9 compatibility and download size
iOS 9 isn’t about a fresh coat of paint like iOS 7 was, it’s about rust-proofing glitchy software that launched alongside iOS 8 last year. Everything is designed to run smoother, and it does.
