The new operating system, iOS 8, was released to Apple product users on September 17, 2014. iOS 8 has had a rough start compared to other versions of the operating system that were released before it. “iOS 8 also isn’t a huge departure from iOS 7, the way that iOS 7 was a complete redesign from iOS 6,” says Huffington Post contributor writer Timothy Stenovec. As of November 10th, 2014, only 58 percent of those visiting the Apple store have downloaded iOS 8.
