iOS 9 Update Problems: One of the Most Troublesome Updates from Apple
iOS 9 offers a lot of new features, but iPhone users find it difficult to use them because of all the bugs that it carries.
According to Forbes, the iOS 9 update can be considered as one of the most troublesome launches from Apple in all its history. The new OS may offer better usage and new features, but still far from being bug-free.
Forbes previously reported that Apple users encountered several problems with iOS 9.0.1, such as having update crashes, bug on the "slide to upgrade" feature, removing the "App Slicing," and most importantly, not being able to use some apps while on cellular data, even if the setting has been toggled "ON."
The website said that the iOS 9.0.2 came with two bug fixes, but it also brought another problem for those who had already upgraded to the new OS.
According to the Latin Post, Apple has disabled the facility to downgrade the devices' OS, once it has been updated to iOS 9.0.2. The feature called "Signing" allows an Apple device to downgrade to an older (and bug-free) iOS version, and it is now unavailable. This is what Apple owners normally use when they encounter any problems with the latest update, and now that the feature is not available anymore, it leaves the users stuck with the buggy iOS 9 update.
The new iOS 9.0.2 did not resolve all the bugs mentioned, and it might take another one to two months before another fix will come out. The new update is also said harder to jailbreak, according to the report. Pangu and TaIG, two of the most popular jailbreakers, have not been able to hack the new OS yet since its release, making Apple owners stuck until later this year.
The next iOS 9 update is expected to be released either later this month or by November. However, users are still not guaranteed whether the new update will fix all the bugs, or will carry another issue.
