Apple has released iOS 10.2 to the general public today. The last time that Apple launched an iOS update was on October 31st with iOS 10.1.1. On that same day, Apple released the developer preview of iOS 10.2. To work out the kinks, Apple iOS 10.2 went through seven beta tests before the public release. This update includes several major features and many bug fixes.
You can install iOS 10.2 by connecting your device to iTunes or downloading it by going to Settings > General > Software Update. The iOS 10.2 update is available for the following devices: iPhone 5 and later, iPad 4th generation and later and iPod touch 6th generation and later.
"iOS 10.2 introduces new features including the TV app (US Only), a new and unified experience for accessing your TV shows and movies across multiple video apps.
