iOS 13.6: Apple Just Gave iPhone Users 29 Security Reasons To Update Now.
Apple’s iOS 13.6 comes with a bunch of cool new features, but it also fixes 29 security vulnerabilities impacting iPhones and iPads—some of which are pretty serious.
Some people don’t like to upgrade when Apple brings out a new version of iOS, instead preferring to wait for any bugs to be ironed out. As someone who covers security, I disagree with this approach, because new iOS versions also come with fixes for any serious issues in the previous iPhone software.
This time, it’s especially important to update your iPhone to iOS 13.6 as soon as possible, because Apple has released a hefty list of 29 security vulnerabilities that it has fixed in the latest version of the software.
Apple doesn’t give much detail about iOS security issues while people are still on vulnerable versions, to avoid hackers taking advantage. However, in a support document detailing the security content of iOS 13.6, Apple lists the 29 issues affecting areas including Audio, Bluetooth, Kernel, Mail, Messages, Safari Login AutoFill, and WebKit.
