Apple has released the final version of its iOS 9.2.1 for iPhone, iPad
and iPod touch couple of days ago which consisted of several bug fixes and
securities updates. If you feel iOS 9.2 is better
than iOS 9.2.1 and had accidently upgraded via iTunes or OTA update then you
don’t have to worry about. Since Apple is still signing the iOS 9.2 firmware, downgrading
is now possible because Apple might stops signing iOS 9.2 at any time.
