Not only has Apple released iOS 16.6 beta 5 for the public to enjoy, but a much awaited fix in the form of an update for iOS 16.5.1 users.
As it stands right now, as per 9to5Mac:
iOS 16.6 has been in developer beta form since May. The upcoming iPhone software update will probably be released this month.
The summer time release isn’t expected to include any new user-facing features. Those are all packed into iOS 17 which is due out in September. Instead, the release will likely be one of the last updates to iOS 16 before shifting into strictly security-focused updates.
This release does not include any maj0r improvements or changes in the updated OS, despite iOS 16.6 having been released since may. That said:
The update is for iOS 16.5.1 and uses Apple’s Rapid Security Response system. This system allows security updates that do not affect the device firmware to optionally be installed automatically.
