Last year, when Apple released the iOS 15 update, it gave users the option that if they didn’t want to update to iOS 15, they could update to iOS 14.8 Yes, after this you will still receive security updates. But there will be no new features.
Just four months later, Apple seems to have changed their mind (but can’t say it), causing those who haven’t updated to the latest (iOS 14.8.1) can’t update anymore If anyone uses a non-latest operating system, the system is only required to be iOS 15.2.1.
Apple released an update patch for iOS 14 The last time was at the end of October. And in the past two months, there have been several security patches on iOS 15, including patches to close the Pegasus Malware iOS 15 vulnerability. iOS 14.8.1 It’s not safe right now. Due to not updating to close various vulnerabilities released to the public in the past two months (Plus, the past two months are a time when there are a lot of safety news.)
If anyone uses a machine that is not too old And can update to iOS 15.2.1 and concerns about security, it is recommended to update it. because the future of iOS 14 It seems uncertain how long Apple will release security patches for sure.
