Apple delivers bug-fixing iOS 8.1.1 beta to developers

From CNET: iOS 8.1 is only a couple of weeks old, but Apple has already seeded a beta of iOS 8.1.1 to developers.

Launched on Monday, the new beta carries with it various bug fixes and performance improvements, according to the release notes. No specific details have been revealed. And since it's a minor update, we probably won't see anything earthshaking added to Apple's mobile OS.

But one change concerns the Health app introduced in iOS 8, as noted by AppleInsider. Specifically, the display of blood glucose data has been temporarily disabled for the app. Disabling that data for for now will allow Apple to support devices that display the information in a unit of measurement known as mmol/L, or millimoles per liter, which is a standard way of measuring such levels.

Since this is just the initial beta of iOS 8.1.1, Apple may have more to add before the final release rolls out to users. But the company appears to be set with iOS 8.1 for now following a series of bugs and mishaps with prior versions of iOS 8.
