Apple today released iOS
8.1.3 to the public,
With a range of bug fixes including a fix for an issue that prevented some users from entering their
Apple ID passwords for Messages and FaceTime, a bug that caused Spotlight to stop displaying app results, and a problem that prevented multitasking gestures from working on the iPad.
iOS
8.1.3 also reduces the amount of
Storage space required to perform an iOS update and adds new configuration options for education standardized testing.
iOS 8.1.3, much like
iOS 8.1.2, was a mi**r release that was **t seeded to developers before being released to the public. The software is available immediately as an over-the-air download.
The first hints of iOS
8.1.3 first appeared in early December after devices
running the updated operating system began visiting the
MacRumors website, and usage picked up last week after iOS
8.1.3 was
seeded to Apple retail employees for testing purposes.
Apple appears to be expanding its OS X employee testing program to iOS, and iOS
8.1.3 marks the first iOS beta that's been tested by retail workers.
iOS
8.1.3 is a mi**r update that includes only under-the-hood bug
Fixes, but
Apple is also working on iOS 8.2, which will bring more drastic changes to the operating system as it contains both
the WatchKit SDK and features that will allow the iPhone to
integrate with the Apple Watch. It is **t clear when
Apple plans to release iOS 8.2, but it could come alongside the launch of the
Apple Watch, which is
currently rumored to be in March.
