Apple blocks iOS 17.6 downgrade channel! We can only wait for iOS 18

Apple will stop signing the iOS 17.6 version system starting today, and users who have upgraded will not be able to downgrade to this version.

Currently, the version number of iOS 17 remains at iOS 17.6.1, which adds a fix for an issue where the advanced data protection feature cannot be enabled or disabled compared to iOS 17.6.

It is reported that when users tried to turn off this feature before, although the interface showed that it was turned off, it was still enabled on iCloud. This update fixes this problem.

Overall, iOS 17.6 and iOS 17.6.1 are both very stable “retirement versions”. Apart from the above-mentioned bugs, they are very friendly to old models, smooth and stable, and have good heat and battery life control.

This will also be the last version of iOS 17. Users who want to upgrade next can only wait for iOS 18.

The official version of iOS 18 will be pushed to all iPhone users after the release of the iPhone 16 series in September.

Judging from the upgraded features of iOS 18, Apple has added many features that have already been implemented in the Android system, such as customizing App icons, locking or hiding Apps, game mode, call recording, etc.

Although some features of iOS 18 are “tribute” to Android, they will undoubtedly further enhance the user experience of iPhone users.
