iOS 10.2 Released for All iOS 10 Compatible Devices

iOS 10.2 is for all iOS 10 compatible devices, which means the iPhone 5 or later, iPad 2 or later, iPad mini 2 or later, iPad Pro range and the 6th generation iPod touch or later. Updating iOS 10.2 is simple. Upgrade prompts should be received automatically, but if you haven’t received a prompt yet it can be triggered manually by going to Settings > General > Software Update. However, the update doesn’t bring the crucial fixes many users crave and instead carries something else you might not have been expecting.

iOS 10.2 brings no fixes for the ” 30% bug” issue for batteries. Though it has widened the range of affected 6S model numbers entitled to free battery replacements), Apple continues to deny any model other than the iPhone 6S is affected.

iOS 10.2, as the version number implies, is a fairly substantial update from Apple. The big additions are the release of ‘TV’ and 100s of new emoji.

TV has replaced the ‘Videos’ app on iOS since day one. As the name implies, it brings tighter integration of movies and TVs you have rented or purchased and integrates with iTunes and third party apps making it something of a media hub. But with both Netflix and Amazon Prime Video snubbing integration it has substantial gaps, for now.

Over 100 new emoji including new faces, food, animals, sports, and professions (and a pop superstar secret) and all existing emoji have been redesigned. They’re a little too detailed for my liking now, but that’s purely personal preference.

iOS 10.2 improved stabilisation and faster frame rates for Live Photos, improved facial recognition for more accurate searching by person in the People album and additional support for RAW digital cameras.

new Love and Celebration full screen effects were added to Messages.

For Music, people now can swipe up the Now Playing screen to more easily access Shuffle, Repeat and Up Next and the added ability to choose how to sort Playlists, Albums and Songs in Library

A new ‘Saved’ section for, well, stories you’ve saved – making this a Pocket/Instapaper rival, a ‘For You’ section also shows paid stories from your subscription channels and you can now swipe left to go to the next story when reading.

HomeKit – accessories finally receive notification support which is big news in particular for IoT devices like smoke alarms

iOS 10.2 also provides fixes for bugs in Messages, Photos, Music, Camera, Mail, Siri, FaceTime, Safari and VoiceOver. There are also several security fixes including exploits in memory, graphics drivers and user profiles.

iOS 10.2 is now available for downloading. Before updating to the newest iOS version, please keep in mind that you need to backup your iPhone with iTunes/iCloud first for safeguard.
