Apple has released updates iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, and macOS 15.2 Beta 1 for developers. Developers must test through Xcode 16.2 Beta.
Highlights of iOS 18.2 include the addition of Apple Intelligence features and several new additions:
Settings now include a Default Apps section where users can set default apps for email, messages, phone calls, call blocking, browser, password manager, and keyboard. This feature was previously available only in the European Union.
Users can now delete core iOS apps such as App Store, Safari, Messages, Camera, and Photos. However, this option is only available to users in the European Union.
Apple Intelligence introduces new image creation tools like Image Playground and Image Wand (exclusive to iPad), AI-generated Genmoji emojis, and Siri integration with ChatGPT.
Users can now adjust the maximum speaker volume on the iPhone to prevent excessively loud music playback.
Mail now includes a filter for email types.
Control Center has added a Type to Siri button.
Apple has not yet set a release date for iOS 18.2 for general users, but it is expected later this year. iOS 18.1, the first version with Apple Intelligence, is likely to be released next week.
