Wi-Fi Assist

There is a new feature called Wi-Fi Assist in ios 9 which automatically uses your mobile data when Wi-Fi connectivity is poor.
I would recommend you to switch it off if you don’t have unlimited data plan.
For doing that Go to Settings > Cellular then scroll all the way to the bottom of the page then turn off Wi-Fi Assist.

Moving between apps is a lot easier on iOS 9. If an app opens a link in another app, you’ll be able to get back to the first app without needing the app switcher. For example, if you open a link in the Messages app, it will open in Safari. To return to the app, just tap the Back to Messages link on the top-left.
