Ubuntu Touch OTA-15 Hotfix Update Could Land Soon for Ubuntu Phones and Tablets

That’s good news for those who purchased an Ubuntu-powered device recently because Canonical still has time to fix some bugs here and there, and maybe add a few new features to the Ubuntu Touch mobile operating system, which is currently in the transition to the current LTS (Long Term Support) version of Ubuntu Linux. At the moment, Ubuntu Touch is using the older Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) branch, which is no longer supported by Canonical since February 4, 2016, so they need to stop adding any new major features to the OS and update its internals instead, as the company announced earlier this month on the official mailing list.
