Apple Seeds iOS 5.0.1 To Developers

Today Apple seeded a beta of iOS 5.0.1 to developers, providing a fix for the iPhone 4S battery life issues and bugs in iCloud.

They also added the new multitouch gestures for iPad 1 users, which were a glaring omission in the initial release. It’ll probably be a few weeks (or longer) until we all have access to this update, but it’s good to know these fixes are imminent.

    I have installed the beta and at first it looked like it might fix the issues but through out the day of moderate use, i don’t think it has fixed it. I did restore from a backup so i am going to do a fresh install to see if that fixes the battery issue.

    I’d rather they fix the serious lag issues on the ipad 1 – more important than enabling multitouch IMO
