How to download iOS5.0.1 and update your iPad or iPhone
Apple has just released the latest update for iOS5 which is iOS5.0.1. It is available as an over the air update, which means that you don’t need to plug your iPhone or iPad into your laptop to get the update.
The total download size is 44MB, so I’d recommend doing the download via wifi, or via a data bundle.
To get the update, go to Settings > General > Software Update.
The update release notes are:
- Fixes bugs affecting battery life
