iOS 9.2: 5 Things to Know Before Christmas

iOS 9.2 Problems & Fixes

Before you install the iOS 9.2 update later this month, know that the iOS 9.2 update brings a collection of problems to the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Newer devices like the iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus and iPad Pro aren't immune.

iOS 9.2 fixes some iOS 9 problems but it also brings some problems of its own. iOS 9.2 problems are affecting every single version of the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. From the iPad Air 2 to the iPhone 6 to the iPhone 5s to the iPad mini 3. 

Point is, there's a chance you'll run into something after you download and install the iOS 9.2 update on your device. Who knows, maybe you run into a problem with the download and installation process itself. It's a possibility. 

Preparing for iOS 9.2 will help but it doesn't guarantee anything. There's still a chance that you'll run into issues during and after the installation process. 

Fortunately, many iOS 9.2 problems are common iOS 9 issues that can be fixed with a few tweaks. We've put together a list of the most common iOS 9.2 problems and we've outlined some fixes to try if you happen to run into something. Apple's discussion forums are another great resource. 

It would be wise to get familiar with these fixes right now, before Christmas, so that you're prepared. This is especially important for those of you that will be using iOS for the first time this month.
