Apple's iOS 14.0.1 update includes a fix for the bug which resets default Mail and Browser app settings after performing a restart or reboot.
Apple released an update for iOS 14 which was found to have a bug that gets rid of the customization set by the user, such as changing the default mail and browser from Apple Mail and Safari into apps preferred by the user. The new update includes a fix for the bug that causes the problem. The Cupertino tech giant's recent iOS 14.0.1 update is the first applied to the iOS 14 operating system which was seeded on September 16, a day after the company announced its new products and services in its "Time Flies" event.
The iOS 14.0.1 update includes a fix for the bug reported by thousands of Apple fans, particularly the one that involved changing the default mail and browser settings. Apple's iOS 14 is supposed to allow users to set their own default mail and browser apps. While users were able to do just that, a simple restart or reboot of their iOS devices removes all changes they made and also brings back Apple's original default mail and browser, Apple Mail and Safari.
One of the temporary fixes before Apple's iOS 14.0.1 update is to make the necessary changes again after restarting the device. Although this temporarily solves the problem, it has become a source of frustration and annoyance to some at having to enter all those changes every time they restart or reboot their devices. The iOS 14.0.1 update, which has the fix for the bug, resolves this problem.
If you are one of the iOS 14 users who changed the default mail and browser app, only to find out that your changes were all wiped out after rebooting or restarting your device, you can download and install Apple's iOS 14.0.1 update to fix the bug. The update is available on all compatible iOS devices over-the-air using the Settings app. To download and install the new software, tap Settings, and then General. Tap on the Software Update and your device is going to download and install the iOS 14.0.1 for you.
Another bug reported by users with Apple's iOS 14 is one that prevents an iPhone from connecting to several WiFi networks. Some also reported a bug concerning their difficulty in sending emails with some mail carriers. According to Apple, the iOS 14.0.1 update included a fix for these bugs and that downloading and installing the new update over the iOS 14 should resolve the problem.
In the iOS 14.0.1 update release notes, Apple stated that the new version includes a bug fix for the iPhone, particularly those that cause default mail and browser settings to reset after rebooting or restarting your iPhone, as well as address the issue preventing camera previews from showing up on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. The iOS 14.0.1 with the bug fix also resolves the issue regarding the difficulty of the iPhone in connecting to some Wi-Fi networks and fixes the problem regarding difficulties in sending emails to several mail providers.
Finally, Apple also said that the iOS 14.0.1 update with the bug fix resolves the issue involving the non-display of images in the News widget. The company encouraged everyone to contact its support team if they encounter other problems or need to have information about their software updates.
