The iOS 7.0.1 update for the iPhone 5s, however, features a fix on the new fingerprint sensor. As the Wall Street Journal noted, online purchases on the iPhone 5s asked for the password rather than using the fingerprint sensor.
iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s owners can obtain the latest software update over-the-air by tapping to Settings, then General, and finally Software Update. The iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c smartphone owners can also install the update by connecting to iTunes 11.1.
Latinos Post reported on Sept. 17 about Apple employees testing iOS 7.0.1, iOS 7.0.2, and iOS 7.1.
"While we cannot absolutely confirm that these tests are occurring inside Apple, it seems likely based on the cities in which these operating systems are being tested," reported 9to5Mac's Mark Gurman.
The cities that have been detected to test the iOS 7 updates are located in Apple's headquarters of Cupertino, Calif. and nearby areas such as Santa Clara, San Francisco and Palo Alto, to name a few.
Meanwhile, Apple CEO Tim Cook launched an his own official Twitter account as the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c launch worldwide with the iOS 7 automatically installed in the smartphones.
The Apple CEO tweeted about his visit to an Apple Store in Palo Alto, Calif.
"Visited Retail Stores in Palo Alto today," wrote Cook. "Seeing so many happy customers reminds us of why we do what we do."
iOS 7 is available for the iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S, iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad mini and the fifth generation of the iPod touch.
