Apple Releases iOS 9.1 With New Emoji, Live Photos Improvements

[DemonMF777]

Worth it for the Live Photos update alone... Half of mine always ended with my phone aimed at the ground!!

I was asked to enter my iCloud password too, just skipped it and was logged in anyway with the same options as before.

But Apple Music was activated again after the update.

TL;DR - does this fix the zoom issue in apple wallet?

Yup. Normal size now

 

[joeblow7777]

Awesome. And this version comes with the new 'hover board' feature I'm led to believe? Your iOS device can now hover a few inches above a surface so it doesn't get scratched. (BTTF-Day!!)

I just tried to ride my iPad like a hoverboard... You owe me a new iPad!!

They just published the details about the security fixes:

Quite a few. Also includes two fixes for vulnerabilities credited to Pangu, so the jailbreak likely won't work anymore.

Fingers crossed the News app puts in an appearance...although not mentioned anywhere...

I've had the news app on the public beta and its remained on the final release too.

Nice bug Apple.

 

[Freakonomics101]

Great! Now let's wait and see if iOS 9.2 will finally deliver the performance improvements Apple promised, because the latest 9.1 beta was extremely laggy.

My phone has frozen up a few times this week with beta 5 along with decreased battery life (slightly) from 9.0.2.

Nice bug Apple.

This bug was already here before

 

[PinkyMacGodess]

It's worth it just for the emoji... (Eyes roll)

 

[Tech198]

yes... emoji heaven ...

9.1 is nice and snappy on an iPad Air 2. But then again most updates are right after all install. No complaints. Working great.

 

[Rigby]

What I don't like is that after every update I have to enter my iCloud password again, also Apple Pay cards get removed.

I was also asked for the password on both my iPhone and iPad. I simply skipped it and still was logged in to the same iCloud services as before. My Apple Pay cards are still there too.

I guess I'm the only one who thinks emojis are ridiculous. They should be neutral and yellow. I do not like religion middle fingers lame.

I fully agree. The non-yellow emoji, the religious symbols, and the middle finger are devisive.

 

[JackANSI]

Anyone else see the user agreement changed?

3rd consecutive update that has left me sitting at the "Slide to Upgrade" screen. 3rd consecutive update that now forces me to restore to factory defaults. This is getting old.

 

[Michaelgtrusa]

Big update day.

 

[Bezares]

I know I've asked before and it seems there aren't many other users on the forum having the same issue but I'll give it another go. Does anyone know if this fixes the issues that some people are having with hidden wifi networks?

I answered this in another thread. For me there is no problem with hidden wifi, my house's wifi is hidden, I can connect iPhones, iPads and iPods. Several iOS versions.

Does it fix iCloud? Haven't been able to backup since ios9

NEWS App now available in Australia too.

 

[bandityo]

This update deleted my beta profile automatically...anyone else?

 

[ghostface147]

Verizon carrier update as well.

 

[Erdbeertorte]

What's crazy is that they released iOS 9.1 without (yet) releasing Xcode 7.1 to support it. There's not even a beta, old or new, of Xcode on Apple's developer site, as of 11 AM Pacific time. The old Xcode 7.0.1 in the Mac App Store won't work with iOS 9.1 devices.

It's now in the App Store.

 

[oliversl]

The time when new emoji in a iOS release is relevant. That time is now.

 

[DNichter]

This update deleted my beta profile automatically...anyone else?

Not for me
