iPhone-Ticker reports [
Google translation] that Apple is planning to release iOS 6.1.2 early next week to address both the
Exchange bug and
lock screen passcode issue affecting iOS 6.1 users. According to the report, iOS 6.1.2 is likely to arrive before Wednesday, February 20.
Like iOS 6.1.1 released for the iPhone 4S
earlier this week, iOS 6.1.2 will be a limited update addressing only these issues in order to allow Apple to quickly release it to the public. Apple last week seeded to developers an
initial iOS 6.1.1 beta including broader changes such as improvements to Maps in Japan, but it now appears that this release will become iOS 6.1.3 as Apple addresses a few high-priority bug fixes on a separate basis.
iPhone-Ticker has previously offered accurate information on iOS update schedules, including word of
the iOS 6.1.1 update [
Google translation] a few hours before it was released to the public.
