Summary: Apple today pushed iOS 6.0.1
out to all users running iOS 6 and it fixes several bugs, including bugs
with the keyboard, camera flash, WPA2, iTunes Match, Passcode lock and
Exchange meetings.
Apple released the first update to iOS 6 since it was released on September 19, 2012. iOS 6.0.1 was released via a free Over The Air (OTA) update to iPhone and iPad users running iOS 6.
Ironically, iOS 6.0.1 fixes a bug that prevents some iPhone 5s from downloading OTA updates. According to CNET, it does this by installing a special "iOS updater" app to help the process along. The app is removed from the device after 6.0.1 is installed.
