I still get the constant web page crash / reload.

Had a strange orientation glitch too. I got a call while I was using Safari in horizontal orientation. I put the call on speakerphone and held the phone vertically as I returned to the home screen. The home screen was horizontal and switched to vertical. I opened Notes and it launched in horizontal orientation, then switched to vertical. Back to the home screen, it was horizontal and switched to vertical. It did this over and over and over until I finally turned my device sideways and then turned it back vertical again.

That is an old glitch from iOS 7 I think. Had it all the time on 7.0.2.

Accidentally lost my jailbreak iOS 7, so staying on 8.2 until either a JB comes out for it or one comes out for 8.3 in which case I will upgrade again. Lost 3 days of pictures and tons of customizations though. 🙁

I've had lots of orientation issues. This particular one could not have affected iOS 7 on phones because you couldn't rotate the home screen except on iPad.

My iPhone 6 Plus lets me rotate the home screen.

I mean when I would exit the rotated app the homescreen would be glitchily rotated, and all apps after that would be too until I went horizontal and back to vertical while I held the phone. May have been exaggerated by the JB.
 
Yep. Had AT forums crash my browser a few times on 8.3 already. Dammit, Apple! If you can't give it more than 1GB system memory then you better damn make sure your memory management doesn't crash my stuff!
 
Just tried to do AirPlay from Netflix on my iPad mini 2nd gen (retina, A7). Miserable f#%^ing failure. Even after rebooting the AirPort Extreme 802.11ac, the iPad, and the Apple TV. AirPlay won't start. I was forced to find my Apple TV remote and play the movie from the Apple TV directly.

I did AirPlay from Amazon Instant with my iPhone 6 Plus last night. Surprisingly, the Apple TV came alive like it is supposed to and started playing (Amazon Instant usually times out waiting for the Apple TV to boot), but there was a stupid HBO Now/Game of Thrones ad over it that I couldn't dismiss without the Apple Remote.

Apple TV ads?! Come on, Apple!

The new ios 8.3 update is the first one in forever to not re-enable bluetooth if it was disabled prior to the upgrade! (I don't use bluetooth, and hate when I have the phone near devices it could pair with, they do a little song and dance getting ready for me to pair them). Just noticed this one thing and found it interesting.
 
The text selection and editing functions seemed to be fixed in Safari but I am glad that I continue the habit of assembling and writing long posts in Notes because it crashed right when I was finally ready to post (Insta-dump to home screen; not the "...pages was reloaded," though I do still get those).
 
Still have moments where Reachability quits working, like right now.
Edit: had to lock/unlock to get it to work.

yeah really, fck that shit 😡

I'm all ready to sit down and airplay a few tv episodes and get hit with that stupid HBO Now splash page. And you can't fucking close it without the remote / remote app. and since i don't keep the remote around (who needs another fcking remote?) i have to switch out to the remote app, 'click' continue for the splash page, then switch back to my video app to watch. fck 😡

oh, for anyone on ios 8.3 -- did your icloud "total" / "used" space drastically drop? I don't use icloud storage at so it should always be 5GB reported. however, after updating my ipad last night, it now shows 1gb total / 1gb used. WTF?
