Apple's iOS 8.2 firmware which brings support for WatchKit may not be released until March, according to BGR.

We’ve been told by a trusted source that Apple isn’t planning to release iOS 8.2 until March, according to the most recent roadmap. While iOS 8.2 will bring some general improvements and fixes to the company’s mobile operating system, the big news is the support for Apple Watch.

Considering Apple has already released a fifth beta of iOS 8.2, March seems a bit far off. However, Apple CEO Tim Cook recently revealed that the Apple Watch won't ship until April.

Notably, select developers have already been asked to submit Apple Watch apps for testing. Some of those apps could be featured an upcoming Apple Event during which the company will reveal more details about the watch and possibly new MacBooks, says the site.

We'll have more details as they become available. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.

I thought we'd be at iOS 9 at that time. Meanwhile, what to do with frequently crashing iOS 8 iPhone 6+. Landscape always been a problem even with incremental iOS 8 updates.

I'm with you on this, iOS 8 is/was a fail no matter what update they bring the issues remained...they need to expedite iOS 9 soon...

Why don't you do a clean restore? Back it up on iCloud and restore your phone. The issue is that you importing something that is causing the issue. When you restore.. select as new phone then put back your files under ICloud.

If you do a clean restore and set up the phone as new, then you can no longer add things back from the cloud.

This update sucks. It's making my phone black out again when I turn my screen to landscape while texting and apps suddenly crash and close. All apps not just a certain few. I have the 6 and my wife the 6 plus and both have the same issues.
