Fixes an issue that may prevent opening a meeting invite in MailFixes an issue where Voice Memos recordings may not download after restoring from iCloud BackupAddresses an issue where apps might fail to download when restoring from iCloud BackupImproves connection reliability of Bluetooth hearing aids and headsetsAddresses launch performance for apps that use Game Center
This update does not contain any security fixes.
After a few hours of testing, it’s clear that more fixes will be required, because based on testing and the feedback of others on social media and Apple’s support forums, both the bug that causes calls to be dropped and the rampant battery drain issue appear to remain.
However, what is noticeably better with this release is Bluetooth, which appears to be much more stable and reliable following this update.
But it looks like Apple still has work to do to bring iOS 13 up to scratch.
To grab iOS 13.1.3 head over to Settings > General > Software Update, or, if you’ve not disabled Automatic Updates, wait for it to download and install in the background overnight.
