Apple promised
last week that it would address the
iPhone tracking issue in a software update in the "next few weeks," and
BGR is now reporting that the update is coming within the next two weeks, or "possibly sooner." What's more, the site says that it's actually been sent an early version of the iOS update, and that it does indeed no longer back up the location database to iTunes -- the size of the database is also said to be reduced, and it's apparently deleted altogether when Location Services are turned off. Somewhat notably,
BGR says that the update includes some further battery life improvements as well, although it
also notes that it hasn't actually tried it out just yet -- it is promising additional details, though.
iOS 4.3.3 rumored to be coming within next two weeks with fix for location tracking issue originally appeared on Engadget on Mon, 02 May 2011 15:04:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
