Apple blocks iPhone users from downgrading to iOS 17.6

This move did not surprise users and technology analysts, because Apple often stops signing old versions of iOS when releasing new versions. This action is not only part of the strategy to encourage users to update to the latest features but also to ensure the safety and security of their devices.

Users will not be able to downgrade from iOS 17.6.1 to older versions of iOS.

iOS 17.6, while not bringing many notable new features, focused mainly on fixing important security flaws. One of the issues addressed was a bug that caused deleted photos on iPhones to suddenly reappear after updating iOS.

With iOS 17.6.1, Apple has introduced a fix for the Advanced Data Protection feature, which improves device security. This update enhances user data protection, ensuring that personal information and sensitive data are better protected against security threats.

Users can update to iOS 17.6.1 and iPadOS 17.6.1 for eligible iPhone and iPad devices by going to the Settings app > General > Software Update.
