A few days ago, Apple continued its established plan and launched the third developer beta of iOS 18.2, the Big Apple’s next big software update. This update will include new Apple Intelligence features like integration with ChatGPT, Visual Intelligence or Genmoji. All these new features will reach more countries, but it will only be in April that they will reach more countries (including USA). Even though it’s not official, Everything seems to indicate that iOS 18.2 will be released on December 9 worldwide, a date that corresponds to timing from Apple for its next updates.
December 9: Possible release date for iOS 18.2
Apple has already confirmed that iOS 18.2 will arrive in December. However, he has not confirmed when and he has no plans to do so. But sometimes there are external parties, beyond Apple, that have proprietary information. This is what happened a few hours ago with the British operator EE Normally, when a new version of iOS is released, the operators also modify and release the configurations according to the changes introduced in the new versions. And these updates usually coincide with the release of new versions of iOS.

A few hours ago, the operator EE announced that the function “Wi-Fi calls on other compatible devices connected to iCloud” would disappear on December 9. Remember that this function allowed you to make calls when the iPhone was not nearby. As we mentioned, the configurations of each operator are modified with each major update so it seems that on December 9 we will also have iOS 18.2 among us.
Obviously EE can remove the feature at any time, but given that last week they released a new configuration version (version 60.5.2) that included these changes compared to the second beta of iOS 18.2, all seems to indicate that this will be the date iOS 18.2 is released worldwide.
