Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports Apple explored a 'white-glove' option for its Apple Upgrade program to ship replacement iPhones already loaded with each customer's data, but the idea never progressed beyond planning and was not included in the launched program, likely due to privacy concerns and questions about data transfer and access.
Apple has released iOS 26 and iOS 18.7, with the former offering new features and enhanced security, while the latter provides a safer, more stable update focused on security fixes. Users should choose based on their need for new features versus stability and security, with iOS 26 being the future-proof option but potentially less stable initially.
Apple is set to release iOS 17.2, the last major iPhone update of the year. The update will be available for all iPhones capable of running iOS 17, including the iPhone XS, XR, and SE models. The update includes a new journaling app called Journal, improved telephoto camera focusing, a direct shortcut to Translate, and the ability to shoot spatial video for the Apple Vision Pro headset. Other enhancements include upgrades to Messages, the Weather app, AirDrop, Apple Music, and wireless charging compatibility. The release is expected to happen on Tuesday, December 12, at 10 a.m. Pacific time.
