Apple Cuts Off iOS 18.3.2 Downgrade Option, Urging Users to Update
Apple has stopped signing the iOS 18.3.2 firmware following the release of iOS 18.4, effectively blocking users from downgrading to the older version after updating. This move is aimed at maintaining security and preventing exploits, as iOS 18.4 includes several important updates such as Apple Intelligence support in more languages, new emoji, Priority Notifications, Visual Intelligence for iPhone 15 Pro models, and various security patches. The decision affects users who encounter bugs with the latest version but wish to return to a previous stable build. Currently, downgrading from iOS 18.5 beta to iOS 18.4 is still possible. Users are advised to keep their devices updated to protect against potential threats.
