iOS 18, Software Update
Digest more
In an unprecedented move, Apple has issued iOS 18.7.7 to all iPhones — including those that can update to its newer software iOS 26. Here's what you need to know.
Typically, after Apple introduces a new major version of its operating system, it stops pushing out the old version to compatible phones. Older phones that are incompatible with the new version continue to get security updates, but newer phones have to jump to the newer operating system to get them.
The move highlights just how serious the DarkSword threat is and that there are enough users sticking with iOS 18 for Apple to address it.
Apple has announced it will release an update for specific iPhones today — and announcing this in advance is pretty much unprecedented.
According to Wired, Apple will release an iOS 18 update on Wednesday morning to patch vulnerabilities exploited by the DarkSword hack.
