Less than a week after releasing iOS 8, Apple pushed out iOS 8.0.1 -- but the update did more harm than good. iPhone users reported issues with cell signal and Apple's Touch ID, and as a result, the company pulled the download.
But it was too late. Twitter had devolved into a collective panic.

While Apple is removing things like iOS 8.0.1 and U2, I'd also like to nominate Apple Maps and Newsstand.— John Dickerson (@jdickerson) September 24, 2014

In the future it will be updated to iOS 8.0.1 and now I can’t get into my house or turn my lights on, and I’m not sure my heart is beating— Tom Warren (@tomwarren) September 24, 2014
