There's some cracks in APPL that are growing as evidenced by iOS roll outs...

We heard for some time that iOS 9 was all about internal fixes, speed and battery improvements, and an overall improvement under the hood.

Instead iOS Safari is a mess, there have been two extremely rushed roll outs to fix other issues that still haven't solved Safari's problems, and on top of all that, there is an issue with iOS 8 users who switched off the ability for apps to pull data unless being used who-once they updated to iOS 9-find their apps (Maps, Facebook, etc) can't pull Cell data AT ALL.

These are basic, back end issues that point to some pretty glaring mismanagement in iOS. Forstall's departure supposedly ushered in the Federghi era of iOS but with iOS 9 and the myriad issues its experiencing, it seems Federghi is presiding over a really inexcusable run where they're destroying the early/quick adoption iOS has always been known for.

Someone is asleep at the wheel for this rollout, and it's costing Apple. All signs point to Federghi...but where the hell do you go from him? Seems someone needs to be held accountable for a rollout that revolved around refinement and background improvement which has produced a TON of crappiness and major background issues.

Does Federghi get scalped as a result? Someone needs to pay...but who?

I think we're just seeing Apple slip further into what's been deemed "post-Jobs Apple."

Steve Jobs was always Apple.

They failed miserably without him before and it looks like they may do so again.

I don't want them to fail. Competition in the smart phone business has been great for the consumer.

Jobs has a lot of critics for his attitude but he would delay a product as long as he felt if it didn't work the way he intended.
My iPhone 6 is buggy as heck since updating to 9 and subsequent updates since. Nothing major like the safari bug thank goodness just slow, stuttering, apps close and open when trying to close them.

Eta: podcasts app still super buggy after the latest update. Almost unusable at times.

I always just assumed they intentionally released a new iOS with the primary function to worsen the experience of older phones.

Dont update the iOS then? Tell that to my OCD
