It’s been two weeks since iOS 9 was released to the public, and right on cue Apple has pushed out its first update, 9.01.

The update also fixes a bug where alarms sometimes wouldn’t go off, and solves problems related to APN and data, as well various other minor issues included in iOS 9. While iOS 9 brought proactive and intelligence updates to Siri and Spotlight, multitasking features for the iPad, and new Apple apps, iOS 9.0.1 isn’t as exciting. They get error messages trying to update via a Wi-Fi network or via Apple’s over-the-air update, the latter mostly due to high traffic volume. Registered iOS developers can download the iOS 9.1 beta from Apple’s Developer site. The bad news: there’s really no way to tell if your device might be affected.

But enough about iOS 9.1. If you have a device that’s acting this way, you ought to be able to download and install the update through iTunes. “I wouldn’t call this new operating system a lemon, but I would call it a nightmare, at least in these early days”, he said.
