Apple Promises to Fix iOS 9.3 Problems with Safari

Since iOS 9.3 bugs and issues trouble many people Apple will have to release an update soon. The company already presented the fix for Activation problem. Now it’s time to solve problems with Safari iOS 9.3 [the new iOS 9.3 supports Verizon WiFi calls] since this browser doesn’t work right for many users who have already installed the newest firmware release.

If you wish to fix iOS 9.3 Safari bug you’ll have to either wait or try to fix it on your own. You can also use Chrome browser for a while. Since the browser isn’t working right users can’t open links using Safari.

It is curious that users who haven’t updated to iOS 9.3 also seem to experience problems with Safari. They can’t launch web links from within the applications and the apps keep crashing. It could be related to third-pary tools or can be a bug with Safari.

There is no permanent solution [learn how to add bookmarklets in Safari]. If you can’t click on a link in Safari, Messages, Mail or other program and notice that your iPhone or iPad get stuck or freezes – you get the bug and there is no real fix to this yet. You might try to delete web cache but this will most likely not solve the issue.

Apple promises to release a fix to the problem. Hopefully the solution will be present soon.

iPhone users how live in Portland, Oregon can also enjoy the fastest way to find public transit information [here is how to fix iOS 9.3.1 bugs on iPhone after update].

If you are trying to use Bluetooth headset or take a phone call in your vehicle you can come across iPhone SE Bluetooth problems. You might also get issues with GPS voice navigation. At the same time, it seems that the music streaming option works perfectly well and is not affected by the same bug as Bluetooth support.

It also looks like firmare version cannot fix your problem since both iOS 9.3 and iOS 9.3.1 iPhone SE users have the same bug. Since reports come from different countries including the UK, the U.S., Australia and other places – the bug is not a carrier specific problem. It is most likely related to Apple software or other issues.

It is curious that iOS 9.3.2 beta testers also get this issue so this is something Apple will have to fix on its end [compare new iPhone SE vs iPhone 6s]. The number of complaints keeps growing and this should be something the Cupertino-based giant has to consider and address.

You might try to reconnect your Bluetooth equipment or turn on / off Airplane Mode but this wouldn’t solve the bug. Even if you try to change your SIM card you won’t get away from the issue. The good news is Apple is aware of this situation and is working on a fix.

AT&T Raises Upgrade Price for iPhone Subscribers

What is iPhone AT&T upgrade price these days? If previous fee was $15 you will have to pay $20 from now on. Anyone who is getting the Apple iPhone SE or other model at full retail price or through installment plan will also agree to pay $20 upgrade fee.

It seems that AT&T followed Verizon as the network rose fee from $15 to $20 right after Verizon started to charge its customers $20 upgrade fee. Consumers who add a phone to T&T Next plan or get a new phone will also pay $20 fee.

Users who get 2-year contract agreement with AT&T will be forced to pay $45 upgrade fee. The same fee is used when you get a new handset through Apple Upgrade Program. By the way, there are still American companies that have no upgrade fees.

Thus, AT&T and Verizon charge $20 fee, Sprint charges $36 upgrade fee while T-Mobile has no such fees. Users who think AT&T is too greedy can easily order SIM AT&T iPhone unlock and start using the smartphone with other American carriers.

What do you think about the new price?

This is not a situation with iPhone SE as the discounts are already available from numerous stores, carriers and retailers.

The 4-inch iPhone is sold in the U.S., Canada and across the world [Apple no longer sells iPhone 5s]. It’s not as popular as iPhone 6 was a year ago – but there are consumers who still want to own the 4-inch device.
