Apple released minor updates iOS 18.3.2 and iPadOS 18.3.2 on March 11 for iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 operating systems introduced last September. Users can download these updates wirelessly through the Settings app by selecting 'General' and then 'Software Update'. It is important to update devices as soon as possible to protect against potential threats, as they fix critical security vulnerabilities and improve system stability.
According to Apple's release notes, iOS 18.3.2 and iPadOS 18.3.2 resolve several issues and are available for compatible iPhones and iPads. One key improvement is the fix for a problem affecting the playback of streaming content on some devices. Additionally, serious bugs in the WebKit engine, used for web browsing on Apple devices, have been resolved.
Apple is also working on a more significant update, iOS 18.4 and iPadOS 18.4, which is expected in early April. Although iOS 18.3.2 has resolved several issues, it has also introduced a minor inconvenience for some users. The update addresses a vulnerability in WebKit that was patched previously in iOS 17.2, to ensure system security.
In terms of security, users are advised to install this update as soon as possible, especially if visiting questionable websites. The 'Apple Intelligence' feature will automatically reactivate after installing the new version, and Apple is focusing efforts on maintaining the integrity of its mobile operating systems through these patches and security improvements.
