I have on my iPhone 6, nothing major in terms of improvement/benefit worth reporting other than more useless Apple apps you can't get rid of and a low power mode ala Android.

I upgraded when the gold master was released. The most visible change is on my iPad with split screen but pretty much everything has been tweaked for the better. Liking the upgraded notes.

I'm not going to it as from what i've read it doesn't work any better on the ipad 2 than ios8 did which is an utter let down. It's just a big **** off to ipad 2 owners that basically you might as well stick it in the draw with ipad 1s now. It won't be long before all the apps start requiring ios8 or later and dropping support for ios7.

Done 3 out of 4, iPad mini mk1, iPad Air and my iPhone 5 all seem to be working great, a small thing but love the lower higher case keyboard. My iPhone 6 still sealed, just back from holiday so will be getting opened and upgraded.

I've done my iPhone 5 and iPad Air both shockingly bad compared to iOS 8. Regretting doing the upgrade now. I'm finding problems with screen orientation, lock screen swipe doesn't respond occasionally, photo album appears to be refreshing over and over on the iPhone where photos will vanish and reappear quickly to name a couple of issues. Not a fan of the new app closedown layout either, it was easier in iOS 8.

Done my iPhone 6 and both mine and the wifes Ipad Air 2. I like it, the low power mode will be handy for when im out hiking in the mountains for sure and I like the new notes and a few other things. Split screen and copy/paste functionality is uselul too.
Both devices feel a little faster... not sure if its placebo or not but that said they are ALL definately a bit better on power.

I don't like the new app switching layout either, will get used to it no doubt.
I'd give your devices a while to settle down, they do a lot of indexing and clearing up in the first hours/days depending on use. If you want to do something then back it up, restore it to factory then sync.

It's not that good... actually it is, things like 1Password and notes are great. I'm running El Cap Gold Master on a 2008 iMac and my 2010 Macbook, both run great.

I was told by izettle not to upgrade to ios9. They emailed me saying it causes problems with connecting to the Bluetooth card reader. They say Apple are aware of the problem.
Only trouble is, I can't imagine Apple releasing another update to satisfy izettle! So I assume I'll just have to refrain from the download on my iPhone 6.
I downloaded it on my iPad 2 (which has been slow since one of the previous updates) and it's still laggy and slow. But I guess Apple think it's time I upgrade my perfect condition, iPad with most of its memory unused
Only reason I got rid of my iPhone 4s was due to the updates rendering it useless.
