There are starting apps to have minimum iOS version upped to 18, in my case it is the Google photos app.

Anyone here still rocking 17.7.2 considering updating to 18.7.3 while it is still available and if anyone did this, are you satisfied going to 18 or was it a step in the wrong direction? Have asked the same question over in the iOS 17 subforum...

[edit] FYI: Regarding a 12 Pro.

The reality is that that most iPhone users wouldn’t even know about the 18.7.3 unless you’re on an XR or XS . You have to have beta turned on in settings to see it. The majority of users on iOS 18 will be on 18.7.2, which is the official release.

Personally I want to delay iOS 26 up to the last point version.

I think Apple will release a iOS 18.8 in future. When it gets released will install it ASAP.

Even if Apple should release iOS 18.8, you won't get it, if your device is capable of iOS 26 - that's written in stone!
