iOS 10.1 Update Latest News, Details: Is It Worth For Upgrade?

Apple has released the iOS 10.1 update on Oct 24, and we list down the details and breakdowns of the latest firmware.

The major tweaks of the latest iOS 10.1 update which seek to address some glitches include:

- Fixes an issue where opening the Camera app would show a blurred or flashing screen

- Photos suddenly quits when opening iCloud Photo Library

- Missing audio when sending clips on the Messaging app

- Messages opening to a white screen

- Activity Sharing on the Apple Watch

- Third party apps crashing when sending text

- Playback not working on iTunes

- Missing Home Button click settings on iPhone 7

- Alarm sounds not working

- Improves Bluetooth connectivity with 3rd party accessories

Forbes said one of the details of the iOS 10.1 update that's being overlooked is, in fact, the most important. What it does is to give crucial upgrades to every iPhone allowing them to connect to all networks.

People might remember the complaints of some iPhone users about connectivity issues, as they saw their connection fall from 4G and 3G to just 2G. There was no satisfactory answer for the glitch. Apple released an upgrade, the iOS 10.0.3, which was meant to address the problem.

It turned out, however, that the firmware was only limited to Verizon subscribers, and only on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

Only those owners of iPhone 5 or more recent models can download the iOS 10.1 update. Those with iPad 4 and later as well as the iPod Touch 6 can access the upgrade. Make sure you have a good connection as well as 50% or more battery life.
