For those having problems with the iOS 9.3 update please read...

Well, I bit the bullet here (despite my common logic) and updated my iPhone 5s (Demotake note) to the latest build which is verified on my device as iOS 9.3 (13E237). It replaced iOS 9.3 (13E233) which was installed on the 5s on the day of release.

I have seen zero issues since updating awhile ago (except for what's noted below but that applies to both builds).

A bug I am seeing though (beginning with 13E233) is still present and that is iMessage will flag the last "read" text properly as "read" until iMessage is shut down from multitasking. After re-running iMessage, that last "read" text will be improperly flagged as "Delivered", despite the fact that it was already actually read and flagged as read before iMessage was shut down. This bug (verified) does not exist in iOS 9.2.1 (tested on my iPad mini 4).

Other than that, nothing abnormal (yet) to report.

Serg, before updating to 13E237 do you recall the size of the update? Was it in the order of 200 MBs or 1.3 GBs.

@elcpu

I'm not 100% positive since I updated both times through iTunes (I never update OTA) but I do remember both builds being approx. the same ~1.3 GB. I have a 10mbit connection and usually have to wait 15-20 minutes for the ipsw file to download fully. This happened with both builds so I assume the file sizes were both ~1.3GB. No way was any update I installed only ~200 MB...seems like the 200 MB download you mention should be the Delta/OTA update size.

Thanks...

Don't know if you read my previous posts on this thread today. I have two iPad Airs on 13E233 saying that an update is available, I assume to 13E237 and the OTA update is 1.3 GBs., i.e. the complete update OTA, not just a Delta. I also have an iPhone 5, also on 13E233, and it says that it is up to date in contrast to the iPads that want to update. Demo has an iPhone 5s, also on 13E233 that wants to update OTA at 1.4 GBs. Hard to make sense of this. My iPads want a full update OTA, my iPhone wants nothing, and Demo's 5S wants a full update OTA also. No consistency here.

Here is one of the iPads. I will let it rest and see what happens....

I will say that my 5s did get the auto-pushed update (13E237) at some point today and I do recall it being in the ~1.3GB - 1.4GB size range. I deleted it after I saw it was sitting on my 5S so the exact file size that it was is now unknown.

BTW, thanks for filling me in...😎

My iPad Air 2 with the "safari & mail link problem" was not fixed after deleting booking.com app.

I Don't know if it's purely coincidental my iPhone 6+ which isn't affected by the problem do not have booking.com app installed.

APPLE guys, please ID the problem & get us a fix soon (AND SAY SOMETHING LIKE YOU SCREWED IN PUBLIC STATEMENT). where are your PR guys? Silence only gives bad impression.

Great post Demo!

It has been quite a while since I've been to the forums but I always check them before updating my devices. Think I will hold off updating all of my devices until these issues are ironed out,

Welcome back jazcan. Please don't be such a stranger.

Universal Links, a feature introduced in iOS 9, is now being blamed for the cause of the links issue.

I Downloaded and installed 9.3 without issues the day it was available on my Ipad Air, Iphone 6s Plus, on my husband's Air 2" Ipohone 6s. All have worked without issues, I do not even have ghe hyperlink issue.

THis morning I opened my Ipad Air and see I have another version of IOS 9.3 already downloaded, ready to install. I'm a bit sary of doing this since my Air is working fine. Contacted a friend with an Air who was on her Pro and as soon as she plugged in her Air, it proceeded to download a neew version alsi even though she too has 9.3 already installed on it. So, any advice, install? It will have to overwrite the current 9.3.

I'M just SMH why it would want to install another version--knew Ipad 2 had problems but they would have to install via Itunes/computer.

ah, just see this. I have a downloaded 9.3 on Ipad Air also and friend has one downloading, also has 9.3 installed. Her Ipad Pro, phones like my other devices all day IOS up to date. I'm a bit wary of installing,
