The update includes a new app called the “TV” app which is aimed to help simplify the television-watching experience. This Apple-designed TV guide will replace the “Videos” App. The new app will also be able to play all the purchases from iTunes, as per iPhone Hacks.

Apple users, however, can have the old “Video” app back from the App Store. It is not only a new “Video” app, the update also include new TV and Videos Widget. Other bug fixes and improvements are also added for the Music App. A lot whole lot of wallpapers and emojis are also in this update.

Apparently, Apple stops signing previous versions of their firmware to encourage their users to use its latest version. Users can no longer downgrade to a lower version of the firmware once they updated into the latest version. Public beta testers can also download iOS 10.2.1, a future update of iOS 10.2 and is currently in a beta testing phase.
