Apple's recent software update moves are really fast. Yesterday, it was just revealed that it was testing the iOS 17.6.1 system, and in the early hours of this morning, Apple officially released the iOS 17.6.1 version of the system push.
This update mainly fixes the bug in the system clock, and solves the problem that users cannot properly enable or disable data protection features.
The "Advanced Data Protection" feature, which was added in iOS16, can be found in Settings - Account Name - iCloud.
Apple's official website describes the advanced data protection of iCloud as follows:
◆iCloud Advanced Data Protection provides our highest level of cloud data security and uses end-to-end encryption to protect most of your iCloud data.
◆iCloud Advanced Data Protection is an optional setting that provides Apple's highest level of cloud data security.
◆If a user chooses to enable Advanced Data Protection, most of your iCloud data, including iCloud backups, photos, notes, and more, is protected by end-to-end encryption.
Prior to this, many users who had upgraded to iOS tried to turn off the Advanced Data Protection feature, although the device interface showed that it was turned off, but the feature was still enabled in iCloud settings. This out-of-sync problem has caused a lot of trouble for users.
While iOS 17.6.1 doesn't bring new features, the upgrade includes important bug fixes. Friends who have encountered this bug before, it is recommended that you upgrade to the official version of iOS17.6.1 as soon as possible to get a more stable system experience.
At present, Apple has pushed a number of iOS18 beta upgrade updates to iPhones, with the launch of iOS18 system, iOS17 upgrade has also come to an end, it is expected that iOS17.6 is the last version of the iOS17 system upgrade, and if you want new features, you have to look at the new iOS18 system.
The iOS18 system is still a beta upgrade, which is more suitable for iPhone users who like to try it out.
