How to Fix these Common iOS 9 Issues



Apple has provided its users with lots of new features since its new iOS 9 update came into the market. You can now use a more influential Notes app, the News app and multitasking has now become easier with this update. However, all’s not well in the La La Land. There have been certain complaints by the users concerning the iOS 9 update. Keeping this in mind, let’s have a look at 5 such problems and their solutions.

1. Insufficient Space for downloading iOS 9


If your Apple device has a memory of 16 GB or less, then it might be hard for you to update your phone to the new iOS 9. Though it is only 1.3 GB in size, you might find it difficult to create enough space for the download. And this is where we come in the picture! In order to wring out the necessary free space, first delete those apps that you don’t or rarely use. Next, delete all those pictures, videos and music that are of no use to you. I know you might think that one day you might need it, but believe me, you won’t. Last, but not the least, delete all your text messages and you will get enough space for your iOS 9 update.

2. Cellular Data Not Working


Once you have updated your device to iOS 9, like others, your cellular data might stop working too. If it does, don’t worry, just shut down your device and then reboot it. Now, switch off your cellular data and then turn it back on. If it’s still not working, then switch on the airplane mode for 30 seconds and then switch it off again. If you still are unable to get your cellular data work, then reset your device. Fret not, you won’t lose any content by resetting your apple device.    

3. Bluetooth Issues


Though this problem isn’t affecting all Apple users, yet there have been a lot of problems concerning the Apple Bluetooth. Many people have raised the issue that after the iOS 9 update, their device is unable to connect with their car’s Bluetooth system, or the connection breaks as soon as they get a call. In order to solve this issue, turn off your Bluetooth and restart your device. Another way of solving this problem is by repairing the device from an Apple care centre. If you are still unable to connect your Bluetooth, then reset your network settings.

4. Battery Issues

Though we all know that the iOS 9 update extends your device’s battery life, we have heard complaints that the battery is getting all drained out after downloading it. If you too are a victim of this predicament, then we have the quick fix for it. The first step would be to go to settings in your device, to see which apps are exhausting your device’s battery life. The best way to stop it would be deleting the battery draining apps. Next, stop streaming music online and instead, download the songs on your device. Lastly, reset all settings in your phone and your battery will certainly improve.

5. Crashing of Apps


After updating your phone to iOS 9, you might have noticed that some apps keep crashing and you are unable to use them. In order to solve this issue, delete the app and re-install it. If you still are unable to use the apps, then check if they need an update or not. Next, restart your phone by pressing the power button and then turning it on. The last step would be to open multitasking by pressing the home button twice and closing the app by swiping it upwards.

If you too are facing these problems after updating your Apple device to iOS 9, then fret not! These given solutions will help you make it efficient just like it was before. After all, it’s Apple we are talking about!
