Bug fixes include:
  • Adds support for 10-bit HDR video playback and edit in Photos for iPhone 8 and later
    Addresses an issue where some widgets, folders, and icons were showing up in reduced size on the Home Screen

  • Addresses an issue where dragging widgets on the Home Screen could remove apps from folders
    Fixes an issue where some emails in Mail were sent from an incorrect alias
  • Fixes an issue that could prevent incoming calls from displaying region information

  • Fixes an issue on some devices where selecting zoomed display mode and an alphanumeric passcode could result in the Lock Screen emergency call button overlapping with the text input box

  • Addresses an issue where some users were occasionally unable to download or add songs to their library while viewing an album or playlist

  • Fixes an issue that could prevent zeroes from appearing in Calculator

  • Resolves an issue where streaming video resolution could temporarily be reduced at the start of playback

  • Fixes an issue that prevented setting up a family member's Apple Watch for some users

  • Resolves an issue where the Apple Watch case material was displayed incorrectly in the Apple Watch app

  • Addresses an issue in the Files app that could cause some MDM-managed cloud service providers to incorrectly display content as unavailable

  • Improves compatibility with Ubiquiti wireless access points
iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 made changes including refreshing the Home screen and app interface, Messages and Safari, made major changes to Siri, added elements to Maps, introduced Sound Recognition alerts, and CarKey support, among other changes. The next-generation tvOS 14 brings better picture-in-picture support, HomeKit Doorbell alerts and camera feeds, UI customization and more to Apple's set-top streamer.

Apple is also testing out updates for iOS 14.2, iPadOS 14.2, watchOS 7.1, and tvOS 14.2 with developers, issuing the first beta on September 17, one day after the release of the milestone versions. So far, the first beta for iOS 14.2 has consisted of cosmetic updates to Control Center and a new Watch app icon, among other improvements.

    oops - that's kind of important! Even better, it appears they fixed the issue where the calculator app would fail to enter digits if you pressed the buttons too quickly.

    I thought it was only me. I didn’t realize that was a bug.

    No need to fix a bug that doesn’t exist. Well, only in your mind, that is.

    We’ll never hear a response. it’s that thing where a turd is dropped on the floor and the one who dropped it waits to see who walks up and sniffs it. Unfortunately that's you and me. We fell for it.

    14.1 seemed to fix the Smart Stack bug I was having on my iPhone 11: widgets in the stack would display for a split second before flashing away/disappearing.

    What? No battery drain fix? My iPhone 6s went from 98% to 21% within 5 min, more than once. I went back to iOS 13.7. I'll wait for 14.2 (or higher?).

    That isn’t a battery drain bug. That is a failed battery. No lithium-ion battery can discharge that quickly without burning up. 

    One post, probably just trolling.

    You shouldn’t have to wipe your phone after every update so GPS and heart rate data from the watch work again (and old tracks are never recovered). This has been widely reported.

    GarageBand now crashes continuously. This is in addition to the AU extension flaw introduced with the prior update. As far as I’m concerned this is a disastrous update for creative people/ musicians.

    There was a response. The turd was yours.

    Describe the bug and maybe someone has a suggested fix? If this was a widespread issues, we'd be hearing about it.
