iOS 6.0.1 released

brophs

About time. Hopefully it will mean an end to the constant workarounds to get wifi and the app store working properly (for me, before someone tells me it's not a problem because only some people have it).

No mention of a fix for the sound and wifi drops unfortunately.

Just about to post this. Curious to see if it brings any wifi fixes which seems to he my main issue. Improved battery would be nice too

My issue is WiFi range went to **** after the iOS 6 update. It only mentions fixes related to security keys in the update log. Don't think this update will help.

If this only effects the iPhone 5 I'll be annoyed!

My range went to **** and wifi drops (have to manually reconnect) every few minutes on my iPad and iPhone 4. Seriously pissing me off

It's way, way smaller if you download it directly onto the iDevice.

I'm having the same problem on my 4S but I haven't updated anything. Must be a problem with the app.

I was having serious grief with connecting to iTunes Store over wifi on IOS6.on my iphone 4.

I just updated latest software and problem is solved.

Nope it was on my iPhone 4 that I initially had the problem and now my iPhone 5 still has the same range problems. Just not as strong as before and although it's not a drastic change, its still noticeable when i'm downstairs now and have to walk around trying to get it to reconnect.

Also people having the problem with apps crashing, although it sounds obvious, try turning the iPhone off and on again. It often solves problems for me with apps crashing.

Go into 'Learn More' and you can download the Patch on the iPhone. It installs like an app. Open the updater app and it will let you download the update to 6.0.1 and after it installs the patch app is gone.

Thats how it worked for me.

Also a few updates to Safari, iPhoto etc..

Zapp Brannigan

Yay it turned off iTunes Match!

Now I have to download all of my music again!

Looks like the dropping wifi issue is fixed (I've a 4S)
Been online now for last 30 mins and its the longest without dropping or disconnecting for last few weeks where the connection wouldn't last for more than a few minutes.
I hadn't noticed an issue with my wifi range so I can't comment on that side of things.

I had the i phone 4 and was working perfectly. Then I downloaded the IOS6 and the phone went to ****. Very slow, brutal wifi etc. That's when I decided to upgrade to the I phone 5. It was fine at the start, but in the last few weeks I find that wifi is crap, i messages don't send half the time...will this update fix all that? Can i do it manually on my I hpone or do I need to connect it to i tunes?

Initially was the same for me. Try turning off cellular in settings and then turning it back on again. Seems to do it for me anyway

App Store still crashes when I try to look at Purchased.

I still can't connect to the update tab of the app store when connected to wifi. I've tried restoring, power cycling both the router and the iPhone, 'forgetting' the network, entering the network manually, and none of them work for longer than a few hours. After that I can't connect again.

But if I turn off wifi I can connect immediately. I'm really loving Apple right now.

DubDJ

Just checked on both an iPhone 5 and iPad (3rd gen) and the App store is working perfect for me. 'Updates' and 'Purchased' tabs. Both devices are connected to WiFi and running 6.0.1 too.

I had to uninstall and reinstall the Sky Go app since the update on the iPad (3).

Works again now but was fooked after the update.

App Store was a bit trippy, too.
