Urgent Apple Message: Update Today!

By iPad Pete 16 Comments

Apple has released an update for its mobile operating system after serious security bugs were discovered this week.

The company urges owners of iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches to install the latest version of its software as soon as possible.

Apple warns three security flaws may have been exploited. It would not disclose any further details until they have time for an investigation and updates are realeased.

Apple is only reporting that “”A remote attacker may be able to cause arbitrary code execution.” Sounds serious.

Apple pushed out the security patches on Tuesday as part of iOS 14.4, which also has some other minor bug fixes.

I strongly advise you update now.

To update your iPhone go to…

Settings > General > Software Update > Download and Install

    I have an older iPad that can’t update. Can I assume this isn’t affected?

        Offload unwanted apps to free up storage, delete old text no longer needed and move photos to iCloud; I had the same issue with my iPad 4. The Apple help desk is nice to work with too.

        Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the helpful information. I already updated the phone and will also update my iPad. If this is so urgent, I’m curious as to why I haven’t heard anything about it at all hrough any media sources, unless I missed it.

    You’re the best! My iPad didn’t announce a software update, as it usually does, but when I searched specifically for it, it was there. Thanks for the warning.

    I saw this a few days ago and immediately checked my phone for updates and it didn’t show any. After reading the weekly reminders from you today I went back and read everything. Thank you!! I followed the steps you included and sure enough, there it was! No alert on my phone, but in the steps you had I am now downloading the update!
    Thank you so much!
    Barbara
