   Apple Fixes Slide to Upgrade Bug in iOS 9.0.1

   Josh Centers

   Apple has already updated iOS to iOS 9.0.1, pushing out a small update
   to address some potentially major bugs. You can download the update via
   Settings > General > Software Update, or through iTunes. It's a 35 MB
   download for an iPhone 6, so it's probably easiest to update over the
   air, rather than via iTunes.

   The main fix in iOS 9.0.1 is for an issue that made the [1]Slide to
   Upgrade screen unresponsive, forcing users to restore their devices in
   order to perform the update.

   iOS 9.0.1 also fixes bugs that prevented alarms and timers from
   playing, caused distorted frames when pausing video in Safari and
   Photos, and could cause users with custom APNs to lose cellular data.

   Apple implies that there are security improvements in iOS 9.0.1, but
   the company's [2]security updates site has yet to be updated with notes
   for this release.

   After updating to iOS 9.0.1, your recently updated apps may need to be
   updated again. If Updates is enabled in Settings > App and iTunes
   Stores, this will happen automatically.
