It definitely kills ghost processes, and frees up other resources, and is a great thing to do regularly to avoid all kinds of audio, midi, and IAA weird behavior. Total free RAM isn’t the only constraint on resource allocation. Dr. Whatever notwithstanding, I know without a doubt after countless instances that it’s a quick way to avoid or cure many issues.
@Kühl you said “double-tap”. Did you really mean that, or are rou referring to the full memory clear described. Double-tap on the home button does indeed do nothing.
You’re supposed to discover it (and rediscover it ad-nauseum) by taking countless inadvertent photos when you’re resting your device on something to steady it to take a shot.
On a positive note, I’m happy to see the “active Audio recording” as a small button in iOS 12, rather than the entire red bar across the top.
@mAxjUlien, yes saved about $400, but prices are higher in Turkey. The 256 Pro2 still cost me $750... about new in the states.
I thought something was wacky! No worries, I deleted the emoji keyboard and the handwriting keyboard I had and now I can type again (as badly as I type anyway)
That does not work. You have to power off and power on. Sometimes that does not work either. iOS likes to have things ready in memory.
I bought and installed the app iDoctor (pro Version)
It measures your ram at all times and you can reset it. I get as much as 900mb free on my iPad Air 1gig & 3gigs free on my > @wim said:
I meant tap on two buttons together.
It may perhaps kill background processes, but that it resets ram... well I beg to differ.
I can measure the amount of ram I have at any time, and ? I measured it in many different ways and then made my scientific conclusion. I’ve even used 2 iPad Pros 12,9 (both Marks) an iPad Air plus an iPhone 6s in my experiments.
With a double hold tap, you gain, some ram, but with a power off you get all the ram like turning on a new machine.

That looks like this:
After I work with lots of apps, it looks like this:

Then I simply do this:

You can also do the same with the disk:

I’ve heard press rumours about a release of new iPads and some macs in October.![:wink: :wink:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/wink.png)
One rumour in particular, about movements in Apples supply chain, makes it reasonably credible.
I was right about September, wasn’t I ?
Ok not firm evidence in any way, but I did get slightly longer than average on my old Air2 battery than I mostly got with ios11. Yep that’s only one instance and it’s pretty hard to do any real tests.
How about performance? Faster, slower...the same?
General use performance is mostly faster than ios11 - so far anyway.
Apps in general seem to load fractionally faster. I’m getting less problems when running apps that use samples as AU.
I’m down to 6% battery now and I’ve had my iPad running for about 8 hours now - it’s been a long time since I’ve had 8 hours out of it!
Wow - good news!
Downloading this antutu spyware benchmark thingy but lord, 411mb?!!
What is it?
Does it contain samplepacks?
Are we sure this isn’t another gospel musicians app?![;) ;)](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/wink.png)
This is my Pro 10.5 on 11.4.1.
So performance of iOS 12 is not as bad as it could have been but not as good as 11.
Yup. Feels snappy on my Air 2 too. I also like the new control center and how it shows the battery percentage when dragging down as I don't have that turned on by default on my devices. Having the date in the left corner is nice too.
So far so good.
Keep in mind my battery life varies anyway depending on what I’m doing, but during the about 8 hours (it may have been less than 8 but definitely over 7), I’ve used Cubasis for a couple of hours, surfed the net, downloaded some IAPs, watched some you tube etc etc.
Definetly seemed like I got longer. I did seem to have a drop of battery life with iOS 11 though. I’m amazed I can still get so long after the use my Air2 has had these last 3 and a half years.
I’m back on charge so in the next week, I will try a whole day in a DAW and see how that goes.
The bulk of what you're clearing there is "Inactive" memory. Inactive memory is a cache of recent apps / processes that allows those to relaunch quicker. However, if another process requires this memory it will be released to the new process. It really is part of the bucket of available RAM for you to use (along with Free)
RAM unavailable to other processes is the Active RAM used by user processes and Wired RAM used by the system.
It seems to have reduced those as well, but my hunch is that it's killing some System processes to get a nice result, but those will typically re-spawn shortly.
However, as mentioned, the real benefit to the Power-then-Home combo is to kill any zombie processes.
My air 1 is definitely better on 12 than on 11. How much I can't say but it definitely is a smoother experience.
Its cool. I think it is the video game tests that take so much space.
Same with my Air 1. It’s a beast again with iOS 12. A little beast that is![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
Respawns within minutes. So no problem there.
Is the battery gadget in system prefs a good way to measure your ghosts?
Hi, could anyone update his/her Ipod touch 6g? I’m curious whether the ipod is still a valuable option? can anyone confirm and how the itouch is doing with ios 12?
To be honest, I've never checked. Next time something seems screwy I'll try to remember to take a look....
I just make that reset a part of my routine when I'm trying to do something more than just mess around as I constantly push my iPad to the limit and need every last bit of CPU time I can wrangle!
I don't need to run any benchmarks to tell me that the devices that I have installed iOS12 on (an iPhone SE and an iPad Pro 10.5) feels a little bit snappier and more responsive than before, when doing everyday common tasks like bringing up the control panel and just navigating around, opening and closing various apps etc. I'm liking the new control panel on the iPad, it's better and smoother than before, and it's real quick to bring it up and close it with the new swipe. I also like the new screen time feature.
I ran Geekbench tests which showed negligable improvements on all devices under iOS12. I think most benefits are in optimized UI behavior and high-level system tasks, rather than raw hardware performance. That's perfectly fine though, as it means that in daily use our devices feel better over the entire spectrum of use cases.
Cool. I thought this would be the case, good to know. It actually makes me happy to know that Apple have put some time into making our devices run better instead of just adding more fluff.
I haven’t noticed much in the way of improved performance. I’m just glad it’s not broken...
+2
It even fixed the freezing issues on my iPad Pro 12,9 Mark II
My Mark I never had those problems.
After a week of use I have no complaints, other than my fingers jump to click on the creek after closing an app, to get the screen bright. In iOS12 this happens automatically so I always end up starting another app![:smiley: :smiley:](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/smiley.png)
Here’s my recent geekbench result for y’all to compare...
