iOS 18.1 will be officially available next week

Apple Intelligence features in iOS 18.1

Just yesterday, Apple released the iOS 18.1 release candidate, which is nothing more than the last step before the official release of a major update. This puts an end to one of the most talked about beta versions in recent years. Especially since it is the first version to integrate the first features of Apple Intelligence, Apple’s artificial intelligence. A few hours ago, those from Cupertino confirmed to certain American media that iOS 18.1 will be officially available next week. Even if there is still no official date, we already know that this update is closer than ever…

October 28, probable release date of iOS 18.1

iOS 18.1 is one of the most sought-after updates by users, especially due to the integration of notification summaries, AI functions in the Photos app or writing tools powered by artificial intelligence. It is about the first taste of full Apple Intelligence integration in iOS 18.

We’ve been doing betas since the end of summer and finally iOS 18.1 is closer than ever.

Apple launches iOS 18.1 RC a week after the official version with these changes

Thanks to The Verge and the Wall Street Journal, we know that iOS 18.1 will be available next week as members of Apple management confirmed to these media. Furthermore, the opportunity will be used to launch the health news of AirPods Pro 2

which were presented during the last keynote and are not yet available because a firmware update for these headphones was necessary.

Everything seems to indicate that this will be the October 28 the day Apple officially launches iOS 18.1 although Cupertino sources have not confirmed the official release date. Also remember that this update integrates more new functions such as design changes and functionality of the control center, call transcription and recording, or even the opening of the NFC chip to third-party developers.
