Tell HN: iOS 18.7.3 Update Hidden

2•alemanek•2h ago
If you have a iPhone which supports IOS 26.X but is on IOS 18 they aren’t showing the latest security update for 18. On my iPhone 13 it only showed the 26.2 update. To get it to offer the 18.7.3 update switch your update settings to “IOS 18 Developer Beta”.

I personally like to stay one major version behind these days as Apples software quality has gone a bit downhill. It’s a really bad look trying to force people into a major version upgrade when a patch release is available. Not sure what drove the decision to not show both options like they used to.

Figured I would let the community know how to get the patch version instead.

Hopefully this was some bug and not a sign of Apple starting to go down a user hostile path. I have Apple everything (iPhone, MacBook, iPad, home pods, the works) so not someone who dislikes the company. Just left a really bad impression.

Can’t edit so self reply. Nope this was intentional and it looks like I am about 5-6days late on this one. I didn’t see another post on this here though so hopefully this helps someone.

So just a crappy move from them then. Going to look hard at other options for all future purchases. Hopefully we get a reversal on this customer hostile stuff.
