Apple blocks iPhone users who have installediOS 17.4.1to downgrade version. As a reminder, at this moment,the beta version of iOS 17.5 is also available on compatible devices.
More precisely, these areiOS 17.3.1 and iOS 17.4 which are now unavailable. These versions were deployed several weeks ago, with some major new features, particularly in the list of emojis offered within the native keyboard.
Apple has a habit of blocking the possibility of downgrading versions after each new version of its mobile operating system. Our news of the day is therefore no exception.
What should I do if I encounter a bug?
Despite everything, downgrading the version can sometimes seem essential, especially if you encounter a technical problem with iOS 17.4 on your iPhone. The good news is that you can install the app calledAssistance Appleto try to resolve your problem. This platform, available completely free of charge on the App Store, allows you to provide information relating to your incident and communicate it to a technician from the Apple firm. You should then receive help within just a few hours.
The reasons for this choice
We assume that Apple limits us to versions of iOS for several reasons. First of all, we know that the latest versions of the proprietary platform are much more popular among users today than their Android equivalents. Apple is thus increasing its adoption rate, one of the best on the market.
The second potential reason is that ofsecurity. We know that each new version of iOS comes with security patches. Of thebug bountiesthus allow seasoned coders to warn Apple of the presence of flaws, which the company then rushes to correct with an update. In other words, with a latest generation operating system, you benefit from the best possible improvements in favor of the integrity of your device. And it would be a shame to miss out, seeing your personal data in the wild, sold to the highest bidder on the dark net.
- Apple blocks access to previous versions, for those who have installed iOS 17.4.1
- This allows it to inflate its adoption statistics
- It’s also a way to ensure more security, in theory.
