The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus haven’t gone on sale yet but Apple has already released the first bug fixes for the new smartphones.

iOS 9.0.1 with support for iPhone 6s and 6s Plus was seeded out to users this afternoon, bringing with it a number of improvements for Safari, Photos, alarms, and more. Apple released iOS 9.0.1 to the public yesterday, but it didn’t include support for the company’s newest smartphones. Once iPhone 6s and 6s Plus owners receive their devices tomorrow, they’ll likely need to run a software update to install iOS 9.0.1.

Here’s a full list of the bug fixes:

  • Fixes an issue where some users could not complete setup assistant after updating
  • Fixes an issue where sometimes alarms and timers could fail to play
  • Fixes an issue in Safari and Photos where pausing 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

The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus officially go on sale around the world on September 25th at 8am local time. Pre-orders for the new iPhones are sold out, with shipping estimates now reaching up to 3 – 4 weeks for some models. Apple Stores will have units in stock for walk-in customers except in China, Hong Kong, Japan, and five U.S. states.
