Apple releases iOS 17.6.1 for iPhone with ‘important bug fixes’

Re-release runs on all iPhones and iPads, but only available as OTA download for some

Apple first launched iOS 17.6.1 nearly two weeks ago with ‘important bug fixes.’

It’s rare for the company to issue a re-release of the same numbered software update. It’s even more unusual for that re-release to happen so long after the first version.

Sometimes Apple discovers a significant bug or vulnerability in a software release and issues a patched version a day or two later. But the original 17.6.1 debuted August 7, so this new version arriving on August 19 treads a new path.

For most iPhones and iPads, the new iOS 17.6.1 update appears to have been released as an OTA download via the Software Update screen inside the Settings app.
