IPhone users will be happy when they finally have the ability to delete any and all apps from they deem useless.

If you prefer a passcode to your thumb, you’ll notice six digits are needed instead of four on touch-enabled devices, which makes them harder to crack.

However, Cook refrained from naming specific apps that could be uninstalled in the future and we assume he meant all the apps that come pre-loaded with the devices. We’re still waiting for a word from Apple, so in the meantime, you might want to try to update with iTunes if you don’t want to wait any longer. If you’ve got an iPad released in the last two years, you can use a feature called “slide over” to take a quick look at another application without leaving the application you’re in. Perhaps we’ll see the feature in a later version of iOS 9.

On your device, open the Settings app, select iCloud, and tap Backup.

Gottabemobile has also shared some reminders on installing iOS 9 to users of iPhone 4S. Just follow the instructions to download and install.

Next, you’ll need to make sure your phone is backed up. I’m not the world’s best photographer even with an iPhone. Don’t forget your password, because you will not be able to recover the data without it. Are any of you using iOS?

The other option is to connect your iPhone, iPad or iPod to iOS to your PC or Mac and update through iTunes. In the Summary pane, click “Check for Update“, then Download and Update. Here is a list of some of these including, a checklist of what to prepare before downloading and updating your mobile devices.

Once the download has completed, you’ll be presented with another dialog. Anyway, the iOS9 update of will give you details about public transport and that.

Despite the troubled roll-out, more than half of all iOS devices were running iOS 8 within the first week of its launch.
