IOS 8.3 Patch Release

Apole messed up big time with the external GPS issues in IOS 8.3. It couldn't have been more inconvenient for me since I am on the road and can't use my Bad Elf GPS Pro to drive CoPilot now. I had no idea that 8.3 no longer allowed CoPilot to retrieve location data provided by my Bad Elf until I was on the road. Not that it mattered, because I cant back out the 8.3 update anyway. What kind of testing did Apple do with this release? I've read of pilots that have the same problem, but obviously in much more critical environments. This is reminiscent of something that MS would do and makes me wonder if Apple has been reduced to their level? I am terribly disappointed and want to know when this will be fixed and available to me.

If rather than just assume that this problem is correctable via an app fix, you would have looked into the issue, you would have discovered that it cannot be. Apple made an internal change that is not in an interface and it must be corrected by Apple in a future release. So stop defending them.

So Apple, when will a fix be released? How important are your aircraft pilot iPad users that can no longer use their iPads? Show us please.

Please post the debugging you must have done in order to know with such certainty that this is not due to an API change.
