Today Apple released updates across much of their software. The OS updates have unlisted bug and security fixes. the Pages, Keynote, and Numbers updates have a handful of small features.
Released today include:
- iOS and iPadOS 17.0.1
- iOS 17.0.2 for the iPhone 15 models being released tomorrow
- iOS and iPadOS 16.7 for those unable to or not ready to update to iOS 17 (Apple will continue to update iOS 16 for late adopters for now, but in a few months updating to iOS 17 will be required to continue receiving security updates)
- watchOS 10.0.1
- macOS 13.6 Ventura
- macOS 12.7 Monterey for those computers unable to update to Ventura. If you are running macOS Monterey and have not yet upgraded to Ventura, I really can’t think of any reason why you shouldn’t go ahead and do so.
