• Apple releases 18.5

  Posted on May 13, 2025 at 03:00 CDT by Susan Bradley • Comment in the Forums

  Apple’s iOS 18.5 is out. Notably, the emergency satellite features will be available as far back as the iPhone 13 instead of the previously announced iPhone 14. It also adds minor updates for Screen Time, Mail, and wallpaper; fixes bugs; and coincides with other Apple OS security releases for iPadOS, watchOS, and others.

  Many of the security bugs have already been exploited but — as is true for many Apple bugs — only for targeted users. Remember to ensure your device is set up for backup either to your computer or to the cloud.

  In addition, the following updates are released:

  iOS 18.5 and iPadOS 18.5	iPhone XS and later, iPad Pro 13-inch, iPad Pro 12.9-inch 3rd generation and later, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation and later, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 7th generation and later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later	12 May 2025
