My iPhone 5s has been Checking for Update. For the last 2 hours?

I've been wanting to update to iOS 8. But my phone is going slower than a snail.

What do you expect? It's an Iphone xD

Apple servers are obviously overloaded. Be patient. If I were you, I'd wait a while to get iOS8. IOS usually is a bit glitchy on first release, and they fix it immediately, but this time so many people are so anxious to get it… So. Relax and take it easy.

I don't plan to go from Mavericks to Yosemite until probably December-January. I'll let all the guinea pigs report the bugs first lol. Done it always like that, never a problem.

Has your phone at least 50% battery, if not fully charge it or leave it connected to the charger and plugged in. May help
