Do you have an iPhone or iPad? Well, it’s time to pop open that Settings app and install the latest and greatest software because iOS 13.3.1 and iPadOS 13.3.1 were both just released to the public. The new release comes after just three beta versions were issued during the testing period, but they were far more spaced out than usual so Apple had plenty of time to iron out any wrinkles. As for what you can expect in this new mobile software release, it’s mainly focused on fixing bugs in Screen Time, the iOS Mail app, and more. There’s also now a toggle to disable the U1 Ultra Wideband chip in the iPhone 11 series to increase security after it was discovered that the phones continue to track some location data even when location services are disabled.
