Mail is still unusable for me. Takes forever to get mail...says "Checking for mail" constantly. Geez, how hard is it to fix one of your core apps?
Got a tip for us?

I had to update via iTunes in the end, seems quite a few people had this issue. https://9to5mac.com/2019/09/22/fix-ios-13-1-unable-check-update-error/
Have not see any app launching twice as fast. Only improvement I saw that was remarkable is Camera app in iOS 13.1 launching about 30 faster.
I migrated from my xs max to 11 pro max, so when I restored the apps were still re-downloaded. I looked at the space usage comparison on both and there is no difference.
Annoying bug: Notifications beep on my iPhone instead of my Apple Watch, even though it is connected to my iPhone. iOS 13.1 and WatchOS 6 on Series 3.
I meant I have not see any speed test that would back up info about significantly faster launch. System neither third party apps. I do not have iOS 13 yet.
Still not available over the air, but going via iTunes did the trick!
Thanks!
Would not have thought of it, as updating on the phone itself has been the easiest way till now. 👍
Having such terrible, spotty cellular connection around the Downtown LA and West LA area, with iOS 13.1. I'm gonna have to revert back to 12.4 until they fix this issue.

Apple today released iOS and iPadOS 13.1, marking the first update to the iOS 13 operating system that launched in mid-September. The new iOS 13.1 update comes just days after the release of iOS 13 and coincides with the launch of new iPhones.
The iOS 13.1 update is available on all eligible devices over-the-air in the Settings app. To access the update, go to Settings > General > Software Update.
Apple started beta testing iOS 13.1 prior to when iOS 13 even launched, which was a surprise move as the company has never before released a point update for new software before when the software has come out.
Given Apple's early testing, it's no surprise that iOS 13.1 is coming not too long after iOS 13 became available for download. It's worth noting that iOS 13.1 is the first version of iOS 13 that's available for the 7th-generation iPod touch.
iOS 13.1 is an update that brings back several of the features that were removed during the iOS 13 beta testing. Shortcuts Automations, for example, are back.
With Automations in the Shortcuts app, you can create personal and home automations using the Shortcuts app to have certain actions performed when specific conditions occur. It's a powerful tool that adds a lot of utility to the Shortcuts app.
Share ETA, a feature removed during beta testing, lets users share their estimated time of arrival to a location with a friend or family member, allowing the friend or family member to follow along with the trip.
The volume indicator has been tweaked in iOS 13.1. If you have certain headphones or audio devices connected (AirPods, Powerbeats Pro, HomePod, and Beats headphones) there are special indicators that feature a unique icon that matches your listening device. There's also a special icon for when two headphones are connected to an iPhone or iPad.
The update brings the audio sharing feature introduced in iOS 13 to all Beats headphones with an H1 and W1 chip, expanding the feature from just the AirPods and Powerbeats Pro. Audio sharing, as the name suggests, allows multiple sets of headphones to be connected to a single iPhone.
HomeKit icons have been overhauled in iOS 13.1, with much more detailed, realistic designs. There are new Reading Goals options for PDF, a change to the Nike branding (it's no longer Nike+), and several other smaller tweaks outlined in our tidbits article.
Full release notes for the update are available below:

I pulled down the full update for my 6s to update straight to 13.1 from 12.4, and got that my phone couldn't be updated because the software was incompatible with the phone. I also read above that it may require an updated version of iTunes for the upgrade via iTunes to work.
BL.
The "software needs to be updated" thing refers to a plugin, not iTunes, and clicking "ok" downloads it. Or did you see a message specifically about itunes?
When I get back to my Mac, I'll SS it and post it. but from what I saw, it was definitely an incompatibility issue, but I'm not sure if between iTunes and the phone, or the new iOS and the phone.
BL.
I don't think this had anything to do with iOS 13 as the help page on Apple support is dated from 2018. And it surely wasn't an iTunes update. Plugin sounds reasonable to me.
I´ve seen it on one occasion... I believe that it will be coming successively
