Just over a week ago we told you that Apple was testing iOS 6.0.1 through different carrier partners, and that it would be released shortly to address various iOS 6 bugs. Sure enough, today Apple has released iOS 6.0.1 Build 9B206.
The iOS 6.0.1 firmware addresses a lot of bugs to do with the iPhone 5. In fact, if you are updating your iPhone 5 to iOS 6.0.1 over-the-air, you will first need to download an over-the-air update patch because the iPhone 5 shipped with a bug the prevents the device from receiving OTA updates. Among other things, the iOS 6.0.1 firmware fixes a graphical glitch to do with the keyboard, bugs to do with exchange meetings and more that you can read about below.
