Apple has finally released the official iOS 10 version for iPhones and iPads.

iOS 10 News, Update, Features
The major changes brought by the iOS 10 are most visible in the Apple Music redesign, Photos App, Messages, and Home App to name a few.
The Apple Music has been redesigned by the iOS 10 and according to Forbes, it has become brighter and bigger. Song lyrics can be seen at the bottom of the player for those who'd like to sing along to the playing song. The app also has a Discovery Mix feature that tailors its music for the user based on what they like and listen to.
For the Photos App in iOS 10, Apple has included facial recognition so that the people present in the photos can be grouped in one album. It also recognizes locations and groups photos taken in that area.
For the Messages, the iOS 10 enabled it to have a separate app called the iMessage, an online messaging app. It can support third-party applications which can also be opened from inside the app. Emojis, bubble effect and invisible ink effect are also included in the new update which makes messaging more animated compared to the past.
How to Download, Install iOS 10
Downloading the iOS 10 to your Apple device is easy. Go to Settings, head to General, then go to Software Update, and then you will need to download it over-the-air (OTA), Mashable reports. It is recommended to backup your device's data first before updating it to have iOS 10.
iOS 10 Major Issue
Some users have had some issues when they upgraded to the iOS 10. According to The Verge, the issue is a failed update process where the device asks to be plugged to a PC to restore the OS. However, Apple said that it has corrected the issue and explained in a support page for those who are still having the problems.
The issue apparently happened in the first hour and an Apple spokesperson told the outlet that the iOS 10 should be safe to install.
