Has iOS 6.0.1 fixed the previous bugs? Requesting information.

Hello Apple Users,


As most of you know, the iOS 6 update has brought many problems for 4th generation iPod Touch users including but not limited to: Appstore crashes, app crashes, Wi-Fi problems, Music problems, iMessage failure, FaceTime failure, missing apps, and more.

I have been waiting for iOS 6.0.1 to come out and address these problems.

Now the next update has finally come out, even though it seems to be targeted to fix the newer devices rather than the 4th generation iPod Touch and older.

I have now updated, but I am unsure what is possibly fixed or what is not. I did not have most of the issues that most of the other users had, so I can't say whether this update helps with those problems at all.


I am looking for what bugs may have been fixed with iOS 6.0.1 that were caused by iOS 6.0.0, so I would be able to see what bugs I would encounter if I were to upgrade from iOS 5 to iOS 6

I would appreciate it if everyone who has updated to iOS 6.0.1 on a 4th generation iPod Touch could post their knowledge about this update and what it fixed in this thread.


Questions to answer:

1.Are any of the problems you had when you upgraded to iOS 6 fixed after the iOS 6.0.1 update?

2.Did you discover any new problems with iOS 6.0.1 in addition to the problems of iOS 6.0.0?

3.Did you have any of the problems mentioned above or that any other iOS 6 user has encountered after upgrading straight from iOS 5 to 6.0.1?

4.What other information about the iOS 6.0.1 update can you provide?


Thank you,

Hi, I'm using iPad 3 and iPhone 4, but since most of the reported issues seem to occur on all devices running iOS 6.0.0 in general I keep you posted anyway.


1. So far at least some problems seem to be solved. FB is running again (however - might be that my problems yesterday werde caused by FB on the server side), searching for apps in AppStore on iPad does work again, but only if there is an iPad app corresponding to the search term. If there isn't switching to "iPhone apps" returns the no-results-message either, although there actually *are* results. Can't tell you something about stability right now, obviously.


2. Not yet.


3. AppStore crashes, app crashes, AppStore "blank pages" (mostly iPad, iPhone slightly better). Sometimes "erratic" battery behaviour (both devices). In most cases the issues could have been temporarily fixed through reboot of the affected device. That led me to reboot my devices once or twice in two days, before iOS 6 I did so only about oce in a week or fortnight, and this just for "maintenance reasons" without really needing to.


4. Nothing so far.
