iPhone users can download iOS 16.6 now. This is one of the last updates to “Sixteen”, because the distribution of iOS 17 is getting closer. Tim Cook’s company also released the iPadOS 16.6 update and improvements for computers and watches.
Apple is putting the finishing touches to iOS 16
iOS 16 was presented in June 2022, and then after a few months it was released in the form of a stable version. Yes, there have been a few noteworthy changes, but we can’t talk about huge news. The system turned out to be quite good, though there were also smaller and larger Apple mistakes that were removed in subsequent updates.
Now, almost a year after the release of the stable “Sixteen”, many iPhone users are waiting for iOS 17, which will hit supported models this fall. Unfortunately, it will rather be a rather boring release of Apple’s operating system. However, before we can download a larger update, the Cupertino company has prepared a smaller one, i.e iOS 16.6.
iOS 16.6, unsurprisingly, does not introduce any significant changes. iOS 17 will bring new features soon. Apple only mentionsThat iOS 16.6 contains important bug fixes and is recommended for all users. Most likely, we are dealing only with changes under the hood, but it is still worth downloading the update for security reasons – it closes the gapsthat can be actively used by cybercriminals.

It’s worth mentioning that there’s been a lot going on with iPhone updates lately, but it wasn’t necessarily a good thing for users. Well, Apple had to withdraw the urgent iOS 16.5.1 (a) update, because it caused problems on many devices. However, the bugs were quickly removed and users received an urgent iOS 16.5.1 (b) update.
iOS 15.7.8, iPadOS 16.6 and other updates
Along with iOS 16.6, the iOS 15.7.8 update was released. It is intended for iPhones that did not catch iOS 16. Here, too, we are dealing with bug fixes and the removal of serious security holes
Whereas iPad owners should download the iPadOS 16.6 updatewhich – like iOS 16.6 – contains bug fixes and is recommended for all users.
In addition watchOS 9.6 and macOS Ventura 13.5 are also available for download – it’s definitely worth installing these updates For safety reasons, because Apple “closed the gates” that can be used to carry out attacks on users. Users of older devices should download the updates marked as iPadOS 15.7.8, macOS Monterey 12.6.8 and macOS Big Sur 11.7.9.
