Apple officially blocks users from downgrading to iOS 18.2

After more than a week of releasing the iOS 18.2.1 update to fix the remaining bugs, Apple has officially stopped signing iOS 18.2. This move is not surprising to iOS users as Apple often stops signing older iOS versions to prevent users from downgrading. When an update is locked, it cannot be installed on the iPhone due to server-side software verification.

Accordingly, users can no longer downgrade from iOS 18.2.1 and iOS 18.3 beta versions to iOS 18.2.

By preventing downgrades to older versions of iOS, Apple ensures that users always keep their devices up to date with the latest security improvements.

iOS 18.2 is known to bring many new Apple Intelligence features, including the ability to create images. In particular, Image Playground is a new application to create images based on user descriptions to make images more realistic and vivid.

The update includes ChatGPT integration for Siri. In addition, iOS 18.2 also brings a number of non-AI-related changes including: a redesigned Mail app, new changes in Camera Control, Find My - allowing you to share the location of lost items with others.
