iOS 9.3 is Apple's most stable new release in years, according to a report from Apteligent. That's despite a bug that affected opening web links which was fixed today and an activation bug that could lock users out of their device.
Despite this bug, iOS 9.3 stands as Apple’s most stable new release in years. The average crash rate over the past eight days is 2.2%, by far the most stable iOS version. For the sake of comparison, that’s better than any current Android release, including the most recent Android Marshmallow, which stands at 2.6%.
Check out the chart below which shows the crash rate for various version of iOS over the past month. Have you noticed improved stability with iOS 9.3? Let us know in the comments!

Need improvement in iOS 9.3, Night shift is good but it should have worked when low battery mode is turned on.

I just updated mine to 9.3.1.. Nicely done Apple, pretty quick to fix the bugs.

It is? My phone keeps freezing and even the home button doesn't work when it happens. I keep seeing the apple logo for a couple seconds and then I can use it again. Not too stable. Also my battery just drains much more quickly!

Dude, which version of iPhone are you using? It's better to hard reset the device.

I had a lot of bugs on 9.0.2, thats why i waited for 9.3(and now 9.3.1) wasnt even worth it to jailbreak on 9.0.2. So dont worry, theyll jail break the newer ones soon.

I don't agree. 9.2 was the most stable no doubt. My 6S has a few problems on 9.3

Stable? Not for me... My iPhone started acting very erratically.

To those who said 'gone are the days of iOS...' here is your reality check.
