Apple's community support forums are filling with with posts related to the recent iOS update. Users of iOS 9.3 have reported clicking links can cause the phone to lock-up in any app. Some suggestions for tackling that technical issue include disabling JavaScript in the app settings or holding down links instead of tapping them. Apple is aware of these issues according to one user who posted a screenshot of a Live Chat support session. However, the company has not stated when a fix will arrive.
Apple rolled out an update to iOS on Monday. In beta since January, iOS 9.3 will add a few new features to the iPhone and iPad product lines. The most obvious is the addition of Night Shift, which changes the display settings on a device automatically depending on the time of day. Other major features include 3D Touch navigation for supported devices, encrypted iCloud backups, password protection for the Notes app, and support updates for CarPlay and Apple Music.
Apple released iOS 9.3.1 on Thursday with a fix for a bug that was causing iPhones to freeze when users clicked on links within apps. Users started reporting their iPhones were locking up when clicking on links within Safari, Chrome and Twitter almost immediately after Apple released iOS 9.3 a week ago. No other changes are in the update.
The latest iOS update is now available. Dubbed 9.3, the software update extends the reach of 3D touch while shifting the phone's display settings depending on the time of day. The idea is that shifting the color temperature of the screen after sunset is better for a user's circadian rhythm resulting in better sleep. The 3D update will unlock the iPhone 6S with touch navigation like never before, you can even use the Touch ID fingerprint reader to lock access to certain apps. Apple's latest update to the iOS platform will also including additions to the CarPlay system including location-based recommendations.
Apple just released its biggest software update since iOS 9.0 rolled out last year. With it, Apple is making the highly anticipated Night Shift feature, which reduced the amount of blue light emitted by your display, available to everyone. Night Shift changes the color temperature of your display when it's dark outside. The later and darker it gets, the warmer the temperature. You can find the settings for Night Shift in the main settings app by heading to Settings —> Display & Brightness —> Night Shift. From there, you can control when you want the feature to kick in. You can also manually adjust the display's color temperature with a slider.
The latest version of iOS 9 has arrived. Apple rolled out iOS 9.0.2 Wednesday, an update that promises to fix quite a few bugs in iOS. The software update includes fixes for iMessage activation issues, interrupted iCloud backups, screen rotation issues, problems with cellular data settings and an improved Podcast app, according to Apple's release notes. The most important change is a fix to the cellular data settings. Though not as bug-filled as iOS 8, it's still early days for iOS 9 so Apple will likely be squashing smaller bugs for some time. The next major update to iOS 9 will be iOS 9.1, which will add a whole bunch of new emoji to the system, including taco and burrito characters.
