Users of Apple's newest smartphone took to social media shortly following its launch complaining that their $999+ devices' touchscreens stopped responding in cold weather conditions,Switzerland essentially "freezing" their phones. The company acknowledged it was aware of the issue, and promised a fix in the near future.

True to its word, Apple just pushed out the latest version of iOS, 11.1.2. The new update promises to solve the screen responsiveness problems, along with another fix to a problem with the camera.

To update your phone (which you should), head to: Settings->General->Software Update.

Apple has already patched a few annoying iOS bugs in the early days of iOS 11, from an issue that affected Outlook email users to the I/A[?] keyboard glitch that screwed up everyone's digital communications for a week and inspired some truly fantastic memes.

Once you update your software, feel free to use your fancy new iPhone X as much as you want in the frigid winter weather. Just know that your battery might not last as long as usual — and even if you phone doesn't freeze, your fingers probably will.
