Apple has started rolling out the iOS 10.1 OTA update for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. The latest update is the first major update for iOS since Apple released the iOS 10 at its September event.

The update comes with build number 14B72 or 14B72c bringing a host of fixes including a critical Bluetooth connectivity error that showed up when connecting to third party devices. For lucky iPhone 7 and 7 Plus users, the update brings an all-new portrait mode which some beta testers got to experience a few days back.
