This is what is included in the update:

  • Fixes a bug that prevents iPhone 5 from installing software updates wirelessly over the air
  • Fixes a bug where horizontal lines may be displayed across the keyboard
  • Fixes an issue that could cause camera flash to not go off
  • Improves reliability of iPhone 5 and iPod touch (5th generation) when connected to encrypted WPA2 Wi-Fi networks
  • Resolves an issue that prevents iPhone from using the cellular network in some instances
  • Consolidated the Use Cellular Data switch for iTunes Match
  • Fixes a Passcode Lock bug which sometimes allowed access to Passbook pass details from lock screen
  • Fixes a bug affecting Exchange meetings

What I found interesting as an iPhone 5 user was that according to the list of fixes, the first fix fixes “a bug that prevents iPhone 5 from installing software updates wirelessly over the air”. Well in order to install this fix, I first had to install a fix!

Before I could even start the download process for 6.0.1 I had to download and install an updater for iPhone 5 that fixes the bug that is included in 6.0.1. Yeah, I thought that odd too!
