Surprise! iOS 7.0.3 update arrives with iCloud Keychain support and bug fixes

In case today's Apple event didn't provide enough exciting news, the company is also pushing out iOS 7.0.3, a completely new update to the mobile operating system. To download and install the update, be sure to launch Settings, then go to General > Software Update.

The primary addition is support of iCloud Keychain, which also appears in OS X Mavericks -- available today. As a result of iCloud Keychain being added to iOS 7.0.3, a password generator has been added to Safari to suggest "unique, hard to guess passwords for your online accounts."

For those with the iPhone 5s, Apple also added a delay to the "slide to unlock" banner when you're using Touch ID. Many other fixes were mixed into the update as well.

Another request from some users involves the motion effects, which can be reduced even more with this update.
