iPhone users will receive a free iOS 4.3.3 software upgrade within the next couple of weeks, which among other things will offer location database fixes.
The BGR reports that Apple will release iOS 4.3.3 within the next couple of weeks. This software upgrade will ensure that the iPhone will no longer back up the location database to iTunes, reduce the size of the location database, as well as make it possible to shut down the location database when Location Services are turned off.
Apple recently issued an official FAQ related to location services, where the company stated that the location database will also be encrypted in the next major release of iOS. The company is expected to unveil iOS 5 in June, but it's still unclear when that software upgrade will reach a public release.
The iPhone 5 is currently rumored to be released in late September or early October, and it's natural to believe that iOS 5 will make its debut around that time. A recent leak also revealed that the MobileMe service will go by the name iCloud in time for the iPhone 5 launch.
