Techradar: Updated: iOS 10 update was bricking iPhones and iPads, but Apple says it's fixed now

Update: Apple says the iOS 10 bricking issue is now fixed, though anyone affected will still need to connect to iTunes or get in touch with AppleCare if they continue to encounter problems.

"We experienced a brief issue with the software process, affecting a small number of users during the first hour of availability," Apple said in a statement about iOS 10, via Buzzfeed's John Paczkowski.

"The problem was quickly resolved and we apologize to those customers. Anyone who was affected should connect to iTunes to complete the update or contact AppleCare for help."

Though the iOS 10 update problem may be solved now, the flap serves as a reminder that it's always best to back up your device before updating to any new operating system.

Apple released the iOS 10 update earlier today, but multiple users are reporting the new operating system has bricked their device.

The problem seems to arise when installing iOS 10 over the air (OTA) on an iPhone and iPad, and users across social media are reporting issues as they install.

Apple Support's Twitter account is seemingly aware of the issue, and is responding to users who complain of bricked devices, asking for more information.

Others have written to 9to5Mac about the issue, and one editor's iPad showed a black screen of doom as he attempted to install the new operating system.

Users are seemingly having success bringing their phones and tablets back to life by plugging them into iTunes on their Mac or PC and restoring the firmware.
