Apple Released The iOS 9.0.2 Silently To Fix Some Serious Bugs
iOS 9.0.2 is available immediately to all iOS 9 users as an over-the-air update.
Like iOS 9.0.1, iOS 9.0.2 is a minor update that focuses on introducing some much-needed bug fixes and performance enhancements to Apple's newest operating system.
This update contains bug fixes and improvements, including:
- Fixes an issue with the setting to turn on or off app mobile data usage
- Resolves an issue that prevented iMessage activation for some users
- Resolves an issue where an iCloud Backup could be interrupted after starting a manual backup
- Fixes an issue where the screen could incorrectly rotate when receiving notifications
- Improves the stability of Podcasts
Apple publicly released iOS 9.0 on September 16th with multitasking features for iPad, transit directions in Maps, a feature-packed Notes app, an all-new News app, and many more features and improvements.
This update fixes a Lock Screen vulnerability that allowed Siri to be used to bypass the lock screen to access photos and contacts on a locked device.
iOS 9.0.2 is a fairly small update at about 72MB so the update process should be somewhat quick for users.
