iOS 9.3 Release Date: 5 Reasons to Get Excited

The Little Things

And finally, the iOS 9.3 release date will be exciting for those that use an Apple Watch, those that use Apple's core applications and those that own a Verizon iPhone 5c or newer.

Apple released WatchOS 2.2 beta alongside the iOS 9.3 beta. This is exciting because Apple Watch users using both updates will now be able to pair more than one Apple Watch with an iPhone.

iOS 9.3 will also bring Siri support for Siri Support for Hebrew, Finish, and Malay. Huge if you speak those languages.

Apple's also including upgrades to Notes, CarPlay, Apple News, and Health. Here are the changes on board the iOS 9.3 update:

Notes - Notes are now protected by passwords and you'll now be able to sort by date created, date modified, or even alphabetically if you choose to.

Apple News - Improve article selection for the For You section, a new landscape mode and new in-line video playback.

Health - Updates to the user interface have made it easier to find the data you view the most.

CarPlay -  The app includes new New and For You sections and a new nearby feature in Maps that will help you discover locations in your immediate area.

App updates in iOS 9.3 go beyond that though. If you own an iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus, you should be excited about iOS 9.3 because it will bring some new 3D Touch shortcuts to apps like Settings, Compass, Weather, and more.

The iOS 9.3 beta 3 delivered support for Verizon Wi-Fi Calling. This is huge for Verizon iPhone users who own an iPhone 5c or newer. 

Apple's next update is also expected to fix the "1970 Date Bug" that's been plaguing users for several weeks now. 

The company doesn't mention iOS 9.3 specifically but says that "an upcoming software update will prevent this issue from affecting iOS devices." There's a good chance iOS 9.3 will be the update that brings this fix to iPhone users.

There's also potential for it to fix an annoying iPhone 6s battery percentage bug. Apple says that it's working on a fix and we haven't seen the bug on the latest iOS 9.3 beta. 

iOS 9.3 beta 5 reportedly brought some changes for supervised devices. If your company is tracking your iPhone you can now see it clearly in the About section of Settings and the lock screen. This will give workers transparancy that they didn't have on earlier versions of iOS 9. 

This is huge for those concerned about privacy inside and outside of the workplace.

    I’m pretty excited about the new iPhone 6c I think it will do better than the 5c did. Hopefully my favorite screen protectors will fit the iPhone 6c from http://www.get-z.com !

    This content is truly awful. There is literally no substance to this article. Pure click-bait. What a lot of codswallop.

    This is about ios calculator problem. I can’t get correct answer for these type calculations. eg. 78-8×2=?
    10-2×5=? etc….

      78-8×2=62 and my ios stock calculator gets it right. If you think the solution is 140 then remember: multiplication and devision Then addition and subtraction. You have to use brakes (78-8)x2=140 or you type in 78-8=70 then x2=140

    New shortcuts? What a crap pre-release 9.3 video, dumb ass! Shortcuts already exist in the current 9.2.1 version.

    Then why the hell did you make this article if you don’t have an exact release date it’s just hearsay now?! You might as well just retract this frivolous article. Since you don’t have an exact release date

    Couldn’t find anything about:
    I have iphone 6s ios 9.3
    Recently switch from iphone 5s to 6s.
    Could never open Icloud in my new phone
    when I try to sign in it shows whole screen faded ( I mean the commands don’t have any response as I touch it.)
    it only shows terms and conditions and when I hit it, shows :Unable to connect to server.
    when asks for appleid it shows erification Failed even with the id and password correct.

    Note to the Author: “Apple’s” is the possessive form of apple, as in belonging to Apple; it’s (an example of a proper contraction of it is) not a contraction of Apple has.

    03/01/2016 at 8:38 pm

    so the person asking about the calculator problem if u read this u need parenthesis ( )

  22. timmy

    03/01/2016 at 8:41 pm

    actually u need to hit equal after each function so 5-5= 10 and then do 10 • 2 = 20 then 20 / 2 = 10

  23. timmy

    03/01/2016 at 8:42 pm

    5 + 5 = 10 sorry

    One reason not to like the new iOS 9.3 update…Still no fix for the Game Center bug. Apple is pathetic. 6 games that I have yet to play in the last 6 months. Time to move on to Android.

  26. this site sucks

    03/15/2016 at 1:18 pm

    Shitty clickbait “article” that is just a copy paste job of apple’s site on ios 9.3 with out actually giving what the title says you have, the release date. Crap sites like this should be able to be sued for clickbait/false advertising.
