Apple has just released iOS 8.0.1. This version includes some improvements to HealthKit, improvements to third-party keyboards, SMS fixes, updates to the Photos app, and more.

However, many people that are on an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus are having issues. They’re having issues connecting to their cellular networks, as well as Touch ID not working at all. Unfortunately, there is no solution for this. As of right now Apple has pulled 8.0.1 from the Developer Center and said that they are busing trying to fix the issues.
The good news is that if you’re on an iPhone 4S, 5, 5c, or 5s everything is working good. If you still want to you can update within Settings > General > Software Update > iOS 8.0.1.
