When a major upgrade of a huge, complex piece of software like iOS is released to be downloaded and used by millions of users, bugs are definitely going to be discovered that weren’t visible when beta testing. It’s essentially inevitable. iOS 5 had a very noticeable battery drain bug that was fixed with iOS 5.0.1, and now iOS 6 – besides having a less than stellar Maps app – has issues with the App Store and Passbook app. Thankfully, there’s a temporary fix for it. Check it out after the jump.
We've seen Apple's demonstrations, and we've also read the reviews from those with more than a slight Cupertino-bent, but the only way we can see what the iPhone 5 is really like in the real world is when the general public begins unboxing them. Today's certainly that day, with millions of consumers worldwide having rushed to become early adopters of the world's most sought-after smartphone.
The official Twitter app has, on both iOS and Android, been subject to much improvement just recently, and with the iPhone 5 quickly following iOS 6 in terms of general release, said Twitter app has just been updated, and is now fully compatible with new software and device alike.
The release date for the much-lauded iPhone 5 is finally upon us, and for those who've been queuing and waiting patiently for their brand-new smartphone, the past nine days must have seemed like an eternity.

iOS 6 has only just made it way onto iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices worldwide, and despite Apple bragging of some 200 new changes, it's fair to day many are struggling to find many of real significance moving forward. Although the Maps app may have come as a disappointment, there's quite a bit of anticipation encircling Passbook - Apple's very own answer to NFC - and although there aren't too many establishments supporting the Cupertino's flagship iOS 6 feature, more and more apps are being added to the App Store at an hourly rate.
Just in time for the launch of Apple's latest firmware - iOS 6 - and the iPhone 5, Facebook has taken the opportunity to update their iOS app with full support for iOS 6 and the taller display of the iPhone 5.
Now that Apple has officially unveiled the iPhone 5, it is no longer a collection of rumors and speculative suggestions. The sixth-generation iPhone is a fully functioning device which consumers all over the world will be able to get their hands on starting tomorrow, or possibly today, if any delivery companies happened to shoot themselves in the foot by delivering some pre-orders early. With more than two million pre-order units sold over the first weekend, there will be some happy faces tomorrow when the delivery man comes knocking on our doors.

At one point in time, I am pretty sure that we have all been guilty of some kind of procrastination or complacency when it comes to just biting the bullet and getting things done. We all have things we need to do, goals we want to achieve and aspects of our lives that we would like to improve upon, whether that be in a personal or professional capacity. Some individuals are born with the required amount of grit, determination and motivation to succeed, whereas others sometimes need a little help in planning things that will ultimately make their lives that little bit better.
