iOS 4.3.3 Update Arrives With Location-Tracking Fix

Apple’s actionable response to the iSpy iPhone tracking controversy has arrived in the form of iOS update 4.3.3, available for download now. As promised and suspected, the update reduces the size of the location database cache, stops backing up the cache to iTunes, and deletes the cache when Location Services is turned off.

So sleep easier tonight, iPhone and iPad users! Your phone is now just as forgetful about where you’ve been as you are. [iPhone 4, iPad, iPad 2]

    It seems to have changed the way my calls display if I have a photo against the contact.
    This change was not highlighted in the update list.
    Am I crazy? Have I just not noticed this before?
