Apple continues its update efforts for iPhone’s operating system iOS. In this context, the company recently released the new iOS 17.3.1 version. With each new update, the company stops signing the previous version. And now, Apple has stopped signing iOS 17.3. But what does this mean exactly? Here are the details…
Apple ceases signing iOS 17.3
iOS 17.3, released on January 22, brought significant improvements. Among these, the most notable is the Stolen Device Protection. When your iPhone is far from places like home or your workplace, it activates an additional security layer. This layer makes it harder for others to access your passwords and accounts.
As of this week, Apple has stopped signing the iOS 17.3 version. This means that iPhones running iOS 17.3.1 cannot be downgraded to this version.
