Apple on Thursday released an incremental software update to all the eligible iPhones and iPads. It mainly comes with bug fixes.

Earlier in the month, Apple had released iOS 11.1, the first major update after the iOS 11 launch in September, but the early adopters were left fuming, as it came with several bugs and primarily affected typing and Siri voice-assistant functionalities.

Several people complained that while typing the character "I", the autocorrect feature turns it to "A[?]" and also when the users interact with 'Siri', it used to launch without any issues, but abruptly hanged in the middle of the conversation.

Taking note of the issue, Apple, as a temporary solution, asked iPhone/iPad owners to use 'Text Replacement' feature to type messages for time being, while they work on the software patch to fix it. Now, the company has announced that the new iOS 11.1.1 resolves them.
