Earlier this week a number of reports from iOS users began to surface. The reports specifically highlighted a software issue that had reared its head with Apple’s flagship mobile web browser, Safari – after successfully updating to the recently released iOS 9.3.
Restricting some of those users from being able to physically click on links within a webpage in both Apple’s browser – and a number of other third-party apps – without their device first freezing, in an attempt to rectify these issues Apple on Thursday pushed out a software fix in the form of iOS 9.3.1.
According to Apple the new version of software addresses “an issue that caused apps to be unresponsive after tapping on links in Safari and other apps.”
You can download the new update via iTunes, over-the-air by heading to Settings > General > Software Update, or directly from Apple by using the links provided – below.
