Apple's iOS 8.1.3 Scales Back Storage Requirements

Jan 27, 2015, 1:12 PM by Eric M. Zeman

Apple today released iOS 8.1.3 for iPhones, iPads, and the iPod Touch. The primary improvement in the operating system is a reduction in the amount of on-board storage needed to install the system update. (Last fall, some users with 16GB devices were unable to update due to a lack of storage.) The system update also resolves an issue preventing people from entering their passwords for iMessage and FaceTime, fixes a Spotlight bug, and smooths over multi-tasking gestures on the iPad. iOS 8.1.3 can be downloaded and installed over the air.

Took a lawsuit to incentivize Apple to make their software take up less space. Go figure.
