Apple today rolled out a key update to iOS 9.3.
Version 9.3.2 solves one niggling problem with iOS 9’s Low Power Mode for extending the lasting power of the last 20 percent of an iOS device. In that mode, the Night Shift feature introduced in iOS 9.3 — for lowering the color temperature of the display at certain hours to make it easier to fall asleep — is disabled. But with today’s update, you can use Night Shift even when you use Low Power Mode.

Today’s update also fixes a bug that caused audio quality issues for some devices that connect to the iPhone SE via Bluetooth.
