There are bugs in any software immediately after release, but many bugs have been discovered along with the release of iOS 8. Users installing iOS 8.0 have reported numerous problems such as Wi-Fi connection problems and abnormal battery consumption,When updating to iOS 8.0.1 which was supposed to be released as a patch, net connection itself can not be doneAs a result, I got a chase like this. These problems are the latest version of "IOS 8.0.2It is solved with.

Every year, Apple releases the new iPhone and iPad, and also offers the latest iOS. OS updates every 12 months have been in effect for the past seven years, with the only exception being iOS 5. OS X's OS update interval was 18 months from OS X Panther until OS X Tiger appeared, while the interval between OS X Leopard and OS X Snow Leopard was relatively slow, 22 months,OS X YosemiteButOS X MavericksSince it was released one year later, OS X update is also switching to the cycle that provides the latest version every year.


Apple is doing various software updates with a furious momentum but since the software engineer is all involved in development, the voice saying "Apple resources are about to puncture" is beginning to appear. Freelance writer for Apple productsKirk McElhearn"It seems that Apple will not be able to do all releases without delay, and the quality seems to be decreasing, but iPhone 6 has proved to be not easy to bend, the hardware is problematic There is no buggy software update, as you can tell by looking at a broken update that is only a pretense.

Also, after releasing iOS 8 or OS Yosemite, people mentioned the quality of Apple softwareTo be listed upThere are people who are not quite dissatisfied. Furthermore, in 2015Apple WatchWill be released so if Apple continues to release software at this pace it will be a more difficult schedule.


Apple is a giant global company, but intentionally organizes a much smaller software team than the same level company. This is due to the policy of Steve Jobs that "it is preferable to hire a few A class players rather than hiring a lot of B class players." Even after Jobs died, this policy continues, but since the team consists of "top talented personnel" only, the team talent is sometimes included in the help to a team that is not skilled. Challenging to acquire the best talent is not wrong, but since key personnel engineers were in the help of the iPhone team,OS X Leopard release delayed, Is also happening.

Considering from the previous release cycle, the next new iPhone (iPhone 6s) is expected to be released around September 2015. At AppleThe most profitable content is iPhoneSo you can not break the cycle "release iPhone every year". In addition, Apple has iPhone 4S "Siri"," Touch ID "on iPhone 5s," Touch ID "on iPhone 6"Apple Pay"By updating iOS at the same time, such as" greatly improving camera performance ", it is difficult to delay releasing the iOS update because it has attached innovative features.


The iPhone sales volume continues to grow, but the response to the provision of buggy software increases as the number of users increases. Apple is forced to make concrete solutions such as "to change the release cycle" and "to hire more engineers".
