Apple has once again released a new update: iOS 5.1.1. This new version is neither extraordinary nor new features; it only improves the performance of some computers and fixes bugs - some of them important - that can affect users' personal data. But let's review everything that makes up this update:
First, iOS 5.1.1 is the next update after the improvements made by the Cupertino on the issue of battery saving. With the arrival of iOS 5, the teams of the bitten apple suffered an unusual energy consumption. And this caused Apple to release two system updates to try to fix the problem.
With iOS 5.1.1, the most significant improvement has to do with the Safari browser. And it is that just a few weeks ago a vulnerability was found that made the user believe that he was visiting an Internet page and in reality this was another page, of unknown origin, supplanting the identity. This practice is known under the name of Spoofing. What was achieved with all this? Well, get personal data and passwords of customers who were visiting, for example, banks from an Apple computer. Synchronization and browser bookmarks have also been fixed.
On the other hand, the new iPad was not without its flaws. And one of the sections that was giving customers problems is the one that refers to their wireless connections. Apparently, the models that have the possibility to connect to the Internet with 3G mobile networks, lost coverage and only managed to navigate under 2G networks, with the slowdown that this implied. In addition, according to users, the only way to get a 3G connection again was by restarting the new iPad. This problem has already been fixed with iOS 5.1.1.
In addition, equipment with cameras and that could take HDR photographs - a function that was added in 2010 after the iOS 4.1 update - did not work at all well if the user wanted to take a picture from the lock screen. Since the iOS 5 update, users have an icon on the unlock screen that allows access to the camera function without having to release the terminal.
Do mirroring or, in other words, display the contents of the screen of the new iPad in a larger, had its own name in Apple Air Play. This function that does not need cables in between, also had some flaws depending on what circumstances - the company has not released more data. Apple also reports that with iOS 5.1.1 this has been fixed.
Finally, in some cases, after purchasing an application in the App Store online store, users received a text message stating that it was "Impossible to buy. " That is, as if it were some incompatibility or that there was no connection to a WiFi or 3G network. Apple has worked on this too, and supposedly it shouldn't come back.
