iOS 10.3 Installation & Downgrade Guide [Changelog]

iOS 10.3 beta 1

Just after iOS 10.3 beta series, Apple has released iOS 10.3 to the public officially. Here’s the iOS 10.3 installation plus downgrade guide with complete changelog.

iOS 10.3 is the up coming version of mobile operating system for Apple iOS devices, which brings some new features to the mix, such as one that makes it a bit easier to find a missing AirPod. The new firmware also comes with enhanced SiriKit support, which makes it much easier to pay bills, schedule a ride-hailing service, and also provide option to check the status of a pending payment.

Here’s official chagelog for iOS 10.3:

The Find My iPhone app now includes Find My AirPods

Reduced Motion is now supported in Safari for web apps

SiriKit now includes the ability to support paying bills, schedule future ride-hailing rides, and check the status of payments

CarPlay now has a dedicated shortcut to launch recently used apps

CarPlay will now show EV charging locations

Navigation improvements have arrived for conversations in the Mail app

HomeKit now supports expanded switch accessories

New 3D Touch Weather actions

Spotlight Search now has a border

The Podcasts app now officially has a widget similar to the Music app

There’s a new user security section in Settings

Recent Apps Button in CarPlay

App compatibility in Settings will show which apps on your iOS device are optimized to work properly on your device.

There’s also the integration of a brand new internal file system that powers iOS, dubbed Apple File System, or APFS for short. Not necessarily relevant to device owners on a day-to-day basis, but definitely a large undertaking on Apple’s part.

Given that iOS 10.3 is eventually out of its pre-release stage, and it is available as an OTA update through the Software Update in device Settings app, it implies another thing; there’ll be lots of users moving away from previous versions of iOS up to iOS 10.3 accidentally.
