Apple has released iOS 18.4 to the public, just a month after beta testing concluded. The update includes several new features and improvements, including audio enhancements for the USB-C AirPods Max.
Among the changes are a few minor updates to popular apps like Keynote, Numbers, and Pages. Apple also released iPadOS 18.4, macOS 15.4, watchOS 11.4, tvOS 18.4, visionOS 2.4, and several other updates.
However, some iPhone users may face compatibility issues with the upcoming iOS 19 update. A recent rumor suggests that three older iPhone models will no longer receive support from the new operating system.
In related news, Apple has released an AirPods Max firmware update supporting lossless audio and ultra-low-latency audio. The company is also exploring solid-state buttons with haptic feedback for future iPhones.
The first iOS 19 beta is expected to be available on June 9, with a public release scheduled for September. As developers test the new operating system, minor updates are emerging in the iOS 18.5 beta.
Apple’s focus shifts towards iOS 19, which is expected to bring significant changes and improvements. Stay tuned for more updates as WWDC approaches.
