Apple releases iOS 9.0.1 with bug-fixes for Safari, Setup Assistant, Alarms and more: How to clean install
Apple has released the iOS 9.0.1 bug-fix update, just a week after rolling out its newest iteration of iOS 9 to the public. This is an incremental update that aims to fix several stability issues including failed upgrades and freezing problems while using the "Slide to Upgrade" feature via Setup Assistant in iOS 9.
If you are still sceptical about installing the iOS 9.0.1 update, just check out the official changelog below:
- Fixes an issue where some users could not complete setup assistant after updating
- Fixes an issue where alarms and timers could fail to play
- Fixes an issue in Safari and Photos where pausing a video could cause the paused frame to appear distorted
- Fixes an issue where some users with a custom APN setup via a profile would lose cellular data
Although the changelog does not mention anything about fixing the prevailing installation and post-update issues in iOS 9, we can be rest assured that Apple would have addressed at least a handful of them in this update as it normally does, following major iOS releases.
