Apple releases iOS 13.6.1 and iPadOS 13.6.1 for all users


Apple has just released iOS 13.6.1 and iPadOS 13.6.1 for all users, just one month after the release of iOS 13.6. The update fixes some known issues related to the exposure notifications and another one that could make the displays a green tint.

iOS 13.6 was released in July with Car Key, a digital key that will work to secure, unlock and launch supported cars. The update also introduced Apple News + Audio with professionally told audio stories curated by the Apple News team to your device. And now Apple is rolling out iOS 13.6.1 and iPadOS 13.6.1 for all users.

One notable aspect of the current update is that it fixes an issue that could cause a noticeable green tint on the screen of some iPhone models, as reported here in June. According to Apple, this problem was caused by a failure of thermal management and it is now fixed with iOS 13.6.1.

iOS 13.6.1 and iPadOS 13.6.1 are now available for all Apple devices compatible with iOS 13 and iPadOS 13. Users can install the latest update on their iPhone, iPod touch and iPad via the Software Update menu in the Settings app. Make sure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network with at least 50% battery power.
