Earlier this week, out of uncertainty, Apple released an iOS 6.1 update for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. This update is the first major update to iOS 6, since its launch in the last year. There have been minor updates before this, such as iOS 6.0.1 and iOS 6.0.2, but they were flawed with issues. The features introduced in iOS 6.1 are not necessarily groundbreaking, but as a fix and improvements to its previous mistakes. Let’s take a look at these features.
