Apple just deployed its update for its latest iPhones last night,iOS 17.2.But not all smartphones sold by Apple are affected by this update. Indeed, some fairly old models like the iPhone X or XS are not compatible with iOS 17.
These smartphones were nevertheless entitled to an update this Monday, a little different from the others. Apple has offered the latest users of these models to switch their operating system to iOS 16.7.3. It is not a question here of launching new features on these aging iPhones but rather of keeping security protocols up to date to ensure the proper functioning of the OS.
Apple takes the greatest care of its users' personal data and the protection of the latter is one of thecredoof the brand. With the publication of iOS 16.7.3 Apple follows its editorial line on this subject and proposes several security changes in the code of its operating system.
Comment installer iOS 16.7.3 ?
For alliPhones that are compatible with iOS 16,it is possible to install this update. iOS 16.7.3 brings little or no change to your use, but the update will help protect your smartphone from possible attacks. To be sure that your phone has been updated correctly, you must go to your phone's settings, then to the “general” section. You must then choose the “software update” submenu.
The new version of the available OS should then appear on your screen. If not, it's probably because your phone is already up to date. Be careful, Apple updates can be cumbersome and sometimes require significant storage space. Your smartphone may therefore ask you to make space on the phone to do updates.
Updated December 13, 2023: Alongside macOS Sonoma 14.2, Apple also released macOS Ventura 13.6.3 and macOS Monterey 12.7.2 to improve the security of computers that do not support macOS 14 (source).
