Apple on Thursday released an updated version of its iOS 14, the iOS 14.0.1 with multiple bug fixes.

According to a report by 9to5Mac, Apple’s original version of the OS release earlier this month had a bug related to default browser and mail settings. iOS 14’s new feature allowed users to set third-party browsers and mail service as default.

Google and Microsoft had both released updates for their email services Gmail and Outlook allowing users to set these apps as default. Google had also released an update for Chrome allowing users to set the browser as their default browser.
