iOS 18.4 Update Lets EU iPhone Users Set Default Apps
Apple's upcoming iOS 18.2 update, expected in early December, will allow iPhone users to set default apps for calling and messaging, marking a significant shift in user control and privacy. This change enables users to choose end-to-end encrypted calling apps like WhatsApp or Signal as their default, enhancing security against potential interception. The update aligns with recommendations from cybersecurity agencies to use secure VoIP apps for calls, addressing privacy concerns beyond Apple's ecosystem.
