There is a new fix available for some iPhones and iPads that resolves issues with note and password security. Apple released two new patches including iOS 18.0.1 for iPhone and iPadOS 18.0.1. . The update finally allows users with an M4-powered iPad to upgrade to iOS 18 later to block users’ devices.
The patch resolves reported issues in the Messages app on all iPhone 16 models. The iPhone’s microphone randomly starts recording for a few seconds before turning on with the orange microphone icon.
The password patch fixes an issue where VoiceOver could read a saved password aloud. The patch works for iPhone XS and later, as well as iPad Pro 13-inch, iPad Pro 12.9-inch (third generation and later), iPad Pro 11-inch (first generation and later), iPad Air (third generation and later) . iPad (seventh generation and later) and iPad mini (fifth generation and later).
If you own one of these devices, you can download new patches by going to the Software Updates tab in the General section of your Settings app.
