Last night in the UK, Apple released iOS 10.1 along with updates to the Apple Watch, Apple TV and the MACs.
I was extremely keen to update to iOS 10.1. The official changelog is as below. Some of the bug fixes had been impacting my iPhone 7 Plus but are all fixed for good.
And for the Apple Watch, watch OS3 fixed the following –
But the update also including extra fixes not listed.
– At the same time as going live with iOS 10.1, Apple Pay got switched on for Japan.
– For UK citizens using the Three UK network, iOS 10.1 was a huge and important update and the new carrier update to Three 26.0 fixed 4G connectivity, other connectivity problems and issues connecting to a Three Home Signal Booster.
