Apple releases iOS 16.5 and more

Apple released the final versions of iOS 16.5, iPadOS 16.5, tvOS 16.5, watchOS 9.5 and macOS 13.4 to all users worldwide this evening.

Users can now install iOS 16.5, iPadOS 16.5, tvOS 16.5, watchOS 9.5, and macOS 13.4 on eligible devices. While attention is already turning to iOS 17, which will be unveiled at WWDC next month, iOS 16.5 doesn't contain many notable changes. iOS 16.5 adds new screenshot commands to Siri that let you start or stop a screen recording via the virtual assistant. The Apple News app also adds a dedicated "Sports" tab, which has been requested by sports fans in the past. In addition, bugs are fixed and security is improved. It is expected that other security vulnerabilities have also been closed. Below you can find the update description in full. (Photo by Bigc Studio / Bigstockphoto)
