Apple iOS 16.1 Release: Should You Upgrade? (Forbes)

Apple iOS 16.1 has been released for all iPhone owners, here's everything you need to know...

to come quickly, followed by iOS 16.1.2 and even iOS 16.1.3 before the arrival of iOS 16.2 in late 2022/early 2023. While iOS 16.1 is shaping up to be the most stable iOS 16 release so far, there are still plenty of bugs to be squashed. In a new [support document](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213323), Apple says this feature is currently limited to the US and requires Location Services, System Customization, and Significant Locations to be enabled in the System Services section of the Settings app. For iPhone owners already running iOS 16, updating to iOS 16.1 is a no-brainer. The standout is [CVE-2022-42827](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-42827) which patches a Zero Day memory vulnerability. [auto-update delays](https://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2022/03/31/apple-iphone-ipad-warning-new-ios-ipados-update-security-upgrade-now/), you can trigger the update manually if you have not received a notification. [finally here.](https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidphelan/2022/10/24/apple-ios-161-iphone-users-urged-to-update-for-dazzling-new-features/) This is Apple’s first major feature update for iOS 16, comes with critical security updates, and coincides with the long-awaited launch of iPadOS 16.1. So what do you get, and is the [iOS 16 bug-fest](https://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2022/10/10/apple-iphone-14-pro-max-lockscreen-dynamic-island-ios-16-battery-drain-problems/) finally under control? As for those running iOS 15, it looks like iOS 16.1 may finally present you with a stable update opportunity, minor graphical glitches aside. Apple iOS 16.1 has been released for all iOS 16 compatible devices; that’s the iPhone 8/iPhone X and newer. The first 24 hours for iOS 16.1 have been largely positive. That said, iPhones have to reindex after updates, which causes higher battery drain for 24/48 hours, so it is too early to call this out definitively.
