Apple today released iOS 9.3.3 to the public, marking the third minor update to iOS 9 since iOS 9.3 launched in March of 2016. In testing since May 23, there were five betas of iOS 9.3.3 released to developers and public beta testers ahead of the public release of the software.

Today's iOS 9.3.3 release is available as an over-the-air update for all iOS 9 users and it can also be downloaded through iTunes.

As a small 9.x.x update, iOS 9.3.3 focuses mainly on under-the-hood performance improvements and bug fixes rather than outward-facing changes.

iOS 9.3.2 is the ninth update to the iOS 9 operating system, following iOS 9.0.1, iOS 9.0.2, iOS 9.1, iOS 9.2, iOS 9.2.1, iOS 9.3, iOS 9.3.1, and iOS 9.3.2. iOS 9 will be followed by iOS 10, which has already been provided to developers.

iOS 10 brings a host of new features, including a revamped Lock screen experience, an overhauled Messages app with new functionality and its own App Store, a new Photos app with object and facial recognition, a redesigned Music app, a centralized HomeKit app, and a Siri SDK for developers.

Same build as beta 5, so auto brightness lag still occurs. Nice job Apple!
 
I'm still running 9.0 and it works fine plan on keeping it that way at least until 10 arrives but won't jump right into 10 will wait several months after.

I've learned that if your device is running smoothly and great battery then there is no need to rush into these updates especially if your device came with 9.0
 
Can someone tell me if I upgrade from ios 9.0.2 to this new update, will my iPhone 6 plus become a bit faster?

I'm on ios 9.0.2 b/c of the jailbreak. But the speed is unbearable....

9.2 up is a lot snappier than 9.0/9.1, update if you wish to have a snappy phone.
 
Available over iTunes in the UK, but at 1.98GB, I'll wait for the direct iPhone update!*

*on my rubbish 1meg broadband, that'll take all night!

Haven't read through the comments yet but I'm guessing people are complaining about iOS 10 beta 3 not being released.

Edit: Nevermind. I'm shocked and pleasantly surprised.

Double edit: I didn't realize beta 3 was released already. It's not showing up for me.
