Apple iOS 7.0.3 Update Launched

Apple has launched the iOS 7.0.3 update for all supported iDevicess. The release is not only rich in bug fixes but also it brings a few new features.


iOS 7.0.3 Update

The iOS 7.0.3 version adds the iCloud Keychain feature to the mobile OS, which promises to help users create and easily fill in secure passwords for websites they visit through Safari. A standalone password generator has also been added to Safari to help you create secure logins. On the other hand, the lock screen will now wait to display “slide to unlock” when Touch ID is enabled.

According to the release notes, iOS 7.0.3 also restores the ability to search Wikipedia and the web from Spotlight. The update tackles several iMessage bugs, resolving one issue where messages failed to send, and fixes another bug that sometimes caused iMessage activations to fail. The accelerometer bug that iPhone owners have been complaining about also seems to have been addressed — at least to some extent. Here is the full changelog.
