iOS 9.3 IPSW: Direct Download Links for iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch

After weeks of testing betas, Apple has released iOS 9.3 at its “Let us loop you in” event. iOS 9.3 brings a number of new features and improvements. Notable new features includes Night Shift mode, enhancements to Notes and News apps.

In addition, iOS 9.3 also brings new capabilities to 3D touch, CarPlay and Apple Music. With iOS 9.3, Apple has also introduced CareKit framework and better Health dashboard.

As usual, iOS 9.3 update can be performed either Over the Air (OTA) directly from your device or using a stock IPSW file to completely restore your device via iTunes.

To upgrade to iOS 9.3 via OTA updates, navigate to Settings > General > Software Update on your device and select Download and install. iOS 9.3 will be downloaded and installed on your device with little interaction. Remember that if your device is jailbroken, you will not be able to see new iOS update on your device. You will have to use IPSW to upgrade.
