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.
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.
User error has led Apple to rollback a software update for older devices. However, the error is rooted in memory, at least the forgetful memory of some users. According to an Apple spokesperson, the latest iOS update 9.3 will not update for older devices right now, including the iPhone 5. Instead, those with an aged Apple device will have to wait for a quite fix to the update process.
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 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.
