Apple today released iOS 10.3.3 to the public following several weeks of beta testing with six betas provided to developers and public beta testers. iOS 10.3.3 comes more than two months after the launch of iOS 10.3.2, a minor bug fix update.

iOS 10.3.3 is a free over-the-air update available to all users with a compatible iOS device. It can also be downloaded and installed on iOS devices using iTunes on a Mac or PC.

No outward-facing changes or features were discovered during the short beta testing period, so it appears iOS 10.3.3 focuses on bug fixes, security enhancements, and other minor improvements, much like iOS 10.3.2.

Apple's work on iOS 10 is winding down as the company prepares to launch the next-generation version of iOS, iOS 11, which first debuted at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. iOS 11 will see a release in the fall following a summer of beta testing. With work shifting to iOS 11, iOS 10.3.3 is likely to be one of the final updates we see to iOS 10.

Update: Apple has shared detailed notes covering the bug fixes that were introduced in iOS 10.3.3. Among the fixes is an update for a major vulnerability that would have allowed hackers to execute code on the Broadcom Wi-Fi chip built into many iOS devices. This issue was also previously addressed in iOS 10.3.1.

This update is important for those who either can't upgrade to iOS 11 (all 32-bit iOS device owners) or don't want to upgrade until iOS 11 polishes a bit more with a future 11.x release, and I wish all those complaining about seeing so many betas for this release would understand that.

i don't think i'm going with iOS 11. seems the betas have a lot of bugs (obviously since it's beta) but my iP6 is sluggish as it is and the iP8 can't come soon enough.

Since about iOS 10.3.1, I have the problem that trying to enable (or disable) cellular data for individual apps sort of hangs the Settings app regularly (maybe twice per week). This manifests itself by the entry for the amount of cellular data used never showing up (I just keep getting the spinner, even after waiting for several minutes). The only way solve this is to restart the phone.

Anybody having the same problem?
 
As many of my favorite apps are not supported with iOS11 I too must stay with iOS10. Glad Apple made it as secure and bug free as possible what with all the betas running over the last few weeks.
 
there must've been an important security issue to modify a gm and delay a release like that

refreshing security updates page like crazy right now
