So long battery problems: Apple releases iOS 5.0.1

So long battery problems: Apple releases iOS 5.0.1Apple has rolled out a quick patch to iOS 5 that is expected to fix the battery issues that some have been facing with the iPhone 4S. The update, not yet available over the air, is now available for download through iTunes.

If you’re having problems with battery drain, you should head over to iTunes (or wait for OTA) and update immediately. Early reports from some beta testers have the patch doubling battery life in some cases.

We're testing out a new service called Spread.Us. Help us share our stories!
