Apple is testing iOS 18.2.1 for iPhones, according to data from website analytics. These logs have often revealed iOS versions before official announcements.
The iOS 18.2.1 update is expected to fix bugs and improve security. However, the exact issues it will address are not yet clear. Apple may release the update in late December or early January.
The update will follow iOS 18.2, which was released earlier this month. iOS 18.2 introduced new features, such as Genmoji, Image Playground, and ChatGPT integration for Siri, available on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 models.
It also added a feature to the Find My app, allowing users to share AirTag-equipped luggage locations with airlines like Delta and United.
Apple is also testing iOS 18.3, which is expected to launch in January with minor changes.
Other updates, such as macOS 15.2.1, might be released alongside iOS 18.2.1, but this is not confirmed yet.
Stay tuned for more updates as Apple prepares to roll out iOS 18.2.1.
