Just update to iOS 9 on my iPad mini 2.

The game was smooth in iOS 8.4.1 but very laggy in iOS 9.

Anyone else got this problem?

Yes, after updating to iOS 9 it is not as smooth as before (iPad mini 2 here too).


Reducing a few dwellers (180->130) improved it, at least in a small way ...

iPhone 6Plus very Laggy , I Had 168 Dwellers. Brought it down to 133 Much Better Hopefully There Will Be An Update for the New OS

I can't even load my vault with 199 dwellers and 73 rooms on my iPad 4 after update to iOS 9. On iOS 8.4 this vault works perfecly, almost without lags.

Remember, Apple intentionally patches all legacy devices to run slower so you're forced to buy a new device. They've been doing this for decades, and will some day be creamed in court with a classic action lawsuit the size of the Titanic. FACT.

iOS 9.x KILLED scrolling, processing, everything....oh, and barely changed anything from iOS 8....like all Apple updates.

iOS 9.1 seems to be a bit better.

But the game does not run as smooth as on iOS 8.4 ..

Created an account to report the same issue as OP. Using an iPad Mini 2 with iOS 9.0, 9.0.1 and now 9.0.2 the game runs very badly. Previously on IOS 8 everything ran perfectly. I even recall commenting to my wife about how smooth things ran with so much happening on screen.

To be clear:

• iPad Mini 2 iOS 9.0.2 (was same issue on iOS 9.0 and 9.0.1)


• Fallout Shelter v1.1


• Scrolling/zooming the screen frequently lags/jerks sometimes becoming unresponsive for 1-3 seconds


• Vault is pretty small with 80 dwellers and 21 rooms
  
  • 2x Water treatment
  
  
  • 2x Power generator
  
  
  • 2x Diner
  
  
  • 1x Science lab
  
  
  • 1x Medbay
  
  
  • 1x Radio room
  
  
  • 2x Living quarters
  
  
  • 2x Storage room
  
  
  • 1x of every training room
  
  
  • 1x Door
  
  


• Other probably unrelated bugs/issues:
  
  • Often unable to pick up a dweller (to move them) without reloading the game
  
  
  • Nameplates often get stuck on dwellers as if fully zoomed in
