iOS 8.1.1 not only provides bug fixes and performance improvements, especially for iPhone 4s and iPad 2, but it also comes with a nice surprise for all iPad owners — it returns about half a gigabyte of storage space.<!--break--></p> <p>After hearing about it from several readers last night, I tested it on a couple iPads in my possession, and in both cases post-update storage availability grew considerably. My
iPad mini 3 it went from 7.5 GB remaining to 7.9 GB remaining. My
iPad Air 2 went from 40.9 GB to 42.8 GB.</p> <p>It sounds like 500 MB is the average size of return, and while that might not seem like much, it's a fair amount of extra songs, apps, and photos — especially on a 16GB iPad. And when it comes to storage, more is absolutely more.</p> <p>Whatever Apple did to clean up, clean out, compress, and/or otherwise make svelter the iPad version of iOS 8, it'll no doubt be appreciated by many, especially those already tight on space.</p> <p>If you've got an iPad, don't wait. Update and get your storage boosted now!</p> <p>(If you're so tight on space that you can't download iOS 8.1.1 over-the-air via Software Update, you can
update via iTunes on a Mac or Windows PC instead.)</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-28429"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='
