Apple iOS Firmware Update

You've heard all about iOS 8 now you can experience it for yourself - the new version of the operating system is out of beta after months of testing and is about to start rolling out to devices worldwide.

The new iOS is compatible with iPhone 4S and later, iPad 2 and later, any iPad mini, the iPod touch 5th generation.



Check out the announcement news for a summarized changelog or you can read our preview for a more detailed look at the changes.

Keep in mind that one of the new features, Handoff, that syncs various activities with Mac OS X Yosemite will start working only next month.

Before you start the update it's advisable to make a backup and to have 2GB or so of free storage. You can update from the phone itself (Settings > General > Software updates) or from iTunes. Actual seeding should start at about 5PM GMT, so keep an eye on your iDevice when the time comes.
