Apple's iOS 135 and iPadOS 1341 are causing serious problems for iPhone and iPad users due to reports of iPad Pro bootloops and an inability to play MP4/MPEG-4 files on the iPhone

AppleInsider notes that iPadOS 1341 causes the 105-inch iPad Pro to reboot repeatedly 30-45 seconds after logging into the tablet Also, a full factory reset does not resolve the issue There are reports that this issue is also occurring on iPhones running both iOS 1341 and iOS 135

On Apple's support forum, the most recent post regarding the iPad issue was made on May 31, with the poster reporting that suggested steps to resolve the issue, such as a hard reboot, do not work The submitter stated that the bug "renders the iPad unusable"

Also, given the lack of official response to the bug or acknowledgement of its existence in the support forum, it appears that Apple has not initiated a fix There are also no clues as to why these restarts occur However, the bug seems to affect only a fairly small number of iPad Pro users and does not seem to be a prolific problem

On the iPhone side, the major problems that seem to be plaguing Apple fans seem to be focused on issues with playing back MP4/MPEG-4 encoded content, which does not seem to work on some phones running iOS 134 and iOS 135 Again, it is unclear if Apple is working on a fix for this issue

However, Apple has fixed the bug that was causing apps to not open on iOS 135 And Apple had to tackle a bug affecting the "Sign in with Apple" feature in third-party apps that could expose users to cyberattacks and allow account takeover due to improper security implementation

Apple also appears to be busy fixing a zero-day vulnerability that could make it easier for iOS 135 to jailbreak iPhones, with other noted issues such as reports of severe battery drain that have occurred to some iPhone users after upgrading to iOS 135 Taken together, the release of iOS135 seems to have been a bumpy ride

However, iOS 135 is notable for its native support for the Coronavirus contact tracking app and service framework In addition, Face ID can now recognize users even when wearing a face mask

Thus, if you are an iPhone user and have an iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, or iPhone SE 2020, it is worth upgrading to iOS 135 However, you may want to wait until Apple resolves the issue
