Apple Launches iOS 18.7 to Address User Concerns and Security Flaws

Apple has released iOS 18.7 as a smaller, security-focused update for older iPhones and users who prefer to delay upgrading to iOS 26, which offers new features and design. Users with older devices or cautious about immediate changes can install iOS 18.7 first, while those seeking the latest features can upgrade directly to iOS 26 later. Both updates are free, but upgrading directly to iOS 26 may be more challenging to downgrade from later. The update is compatible with iPhones from 2018 onwards, and Apple emphasizes security and bug fixes in iOS 18.7.
