iOS 18.3.2 Update Coming Soon for iPhones

[MacRumors]

Apple employees are internally testing iOS 18.3.2 for iPhones, according to our website's visitor logs, which have been a reliable indicator of upcoming iOS versions. The software update should be released in the next week or two.

iOS 18.3.2 will be a minor update that addresses software bugs and/or security vulnerabilities. Don't expect any new features.

iOS 18.3.2 will be an interim update while iOS 18.4 remains in beta testing. iOS 18.4 does not have any new Apple Intelligence features for Siri, as Apple has confirmed those features are delayed, but the update does include Priority Notifications, an Apple News+ Food section, a new Vision Pro app, and a few other changes.

iOS 18.3.2 should be released in March, while Apple confirmed that iOS 18.4 will be made available to the general public in early April.

iOS 18.3.1 was released last month, with bug fixes.

Good stuff. Keep us busy while waiting for iOS 18.4.

iOS 18.4 does have one other significant update/addition — Apple Intelligence for EU countries. Patiently waiting for it here. I hardly ever use my MacBook, so having it on my iPhone will be much more convenient. I’ve created several images in Image Playground but not so fond of having to ‘crank up’ the behemoth that is a MacBook Air (when compared to an iPhone or iPad). Unfortunately, my iPad (which is my main computer) isn’t compatible with Apple Intelligence, so the iPhone will probably become my go-to device for it.

Hopefully it comes with new carrier bundles

 

[MrRom92]

I would consider installing this however I will not be installing 18.4

Nice. Can't wait to try out the new and improved Siri with Apple Intelligence.

This is why you underpromise and overdeliver. They should have simply held off on Siri for WWDC and iOS19, but I understand they were under investor pressure.

This is great news! I have been waiting for ios 18.3.2 for many years and can not wait to install this ground-breaking update.

 

[UliBaer]

If they manage to squash at least some of the more ugly bugs, maybe I finally switch to 18.
Meanwhile I furthermore enjoy the bugs of 17.7.2...

They showed it off AND advertised it for the iPhone 16
The line should've been drawn at showing it off, as a “future capability”, not as an OMG amazing iPhone 16 feature buy now

Can't wait to use the new and improved Photos app as well

What bugs on 18 are you talking about? I find it to be incredibly stable and never run into issues with it.

Alone the battery drain posts of users desperately seeking the cause of it and ultimately the major faults with mail. I depend on reliable mail delivery, so i refuse to be Apples testbed for mail "improvements". There are a lot more, so please educate yourself.

[edit] Forgot:
All the things I (and others) don't like, that were made just for the sake of change, like mail, photos, etc...
[/edit]

As an excuse Apple should at least sign a 17.7.5 or .6 for all capable devices...

I might. Try and stop me 😛

Summary of iOS development in the Cook era. “It’s gonna take longer that we thought folks”.

Rinse and repeat every single year.

Reminiscent of all those new TVs in the ‘90s emblazoned with “HD ready” stickers

Well they needed something to try to convince people to upgrade from the mostly similar iPhone 14 Pro and 15 Pro

Tell that to the 430 apps I have ready for updates that can’t be updated because my iPhone has not installed any apps in weeks. Then I open Pizza Hut and it tells me to please update the app. You can’t even get pizza with this phone. 18 is the buggiest iOS has ever been by FAR.

 

[jz0309]

Bug fixes and security updates are a good thing and welcomed

As opposed to iOS for Toasters? iOS is by default for iPhones.

On a side note, are they finally internally testing before release?

I think it is more like, “It’s gonna take longer that we thought folks, because we have no software development strategy and we move teams around with the primary goal to make the Cook's Keynote sound good, but not delivering well thought out and reliable products”.

You responded with your experience the same way they responded with theirs.

I haven’t seen anyone else experiencing the same issue as yours on this forum. While a lot do have a stable build on iOS 18 there’s a percentage of us who’ve had varying range of bugs. No need to throw a shade at someone for not having a bad experience.

You did refuse to install from scratch though for reasons only you’d know which might actually resolve the issue.

iOS is so complex and there might come a point where you might need to start from scratch. Flawless working of 430+ apps can’t be guaranteed by anyone.

 

[Nickerbocker]

I need a bluetooth audio fix! One of the patches for 18.1 fixed it and since 18.2 and 18.3 it has been wonky again with everything I connect to including AirPod Pros 2 and car audio. Just will periodically get audio garble for 2-3 seconds. Tried rebooting everything, disconnecting all bluetooth and re-connecting all bluetooth. Super frustrating. Anyone else?

Apple fatigue is real.

And yet you still choose to visit an apple specific rumor site… certainly makes a lot of sense.
You know if you’re fatigued by apple’s recent announcements you can just… Ignore them? Not look at them? Not interact with them?
Vast majority of even apples own customers have no idea what they are up to, and no idea what operating system they are running, you can be one of them just as easily.
For example, I care very little about what Motorola is up to these days, so I just… don’t pay attention to what Motorola is up to these days.
It’s very cool, this choice thing.
