  • Improves stability when dealing with large amounts of data
  • Includes the ability to add and visualise workout sessions from 3rd-party apps
  • Addresses an issue that may have prevented users from adding a photo in Medical ID
  • Fixes units for vitamins and minerals

I’m hoping that they will fix the 3rd party keyboards implementation. They’re just unusable in Facebook or in Messages.

I’m often having to restart iMessages. I think it’s when I get to a message from a notification, it’s like the image of the message or the list of messages is super-imposed on top and it becomes unclickable. Only way to use iMessages then is to restart it.
