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.

iOS has one great feature, faster software updates do to the control Apple has over the process and something Android OEM’s need to simply do themselves. Sell direct, offer leasing options and screw the carriers.
That said, the mere fact that iOS 9.0.1 was ready immediately after launch shows that iOS 9.0 should NOT have been the GM, what they just rolled out days later should have been. BTW, my iPhone 4S runs like SHT with iOS 9.0.
Have you considered the issues that arose in 9.0 were not there before the release? Apple has a beta testing program for IOS and OS X that consists of volunteers and developers. I’d like to think if the problems existed during testing Apple would have fixed it. Every upgrade has unknown bugs. You can’t develop a 1.3 gig operating system and not have bugs. Go back in history and you will find every release of an IOS upgrade had bugs. The release of 9.0.1 says to me Apple found the problem and fixed it. There is no evidence that Apple knew the problems existed before release and went ahead and released 9.0 anyway.
