The newest iPhone software release could be the last big update before Apple moves to the next-generation iOS 26. Here’s what’s in it.

Apple has rolled out what might be its final major update for its current software platforms ahead of its total overhaul across all devices this fall. The iOS 18.6 update has rolled out to iPhone users,

The release of iOS 18.6 is a big milestone—especially for older iPhones like the XS, XS Max, and XR. These models won’t support iOS 19, so this update is their final major upgrade. Here's how to install it.
