iOS 17.3.1 is released to exterminate iPhone bugs including one that Apple singled out\u060c<\/p>\n

\n

Apple today released iOS 17.3.1, a minor update that fixes bugs on your eligible iPhone model. The only bug Apple mentions is one that could cause \u201cunexpected duplication or overlapping of text while typing.\u201d The update weighs 298.2 MB for my iPhone 15 Pro Max and you can install it on your iPhone by going to Settings<\/span> > General<\/span> > Software update<\/span> and following the instructions. THE iOS 17<\/span>Update .3.1 arrived 17 days after Apple discontinued it iOS 17<\/span>.3 which featured the important stolen device protection feature. Once this feature is enabled, certain tasks such as applying for an Apple Card will require the use of Face ID or Touch ID to verify your identity. <\/p>\n

More sensitive actions, such as changing your Apple ID password, changing your phone password, resetting Face ID, and turning off the Find My app<\/a>, will require a one-hour break . And even then, you'll need to use Face ID or Touch ID to verify your identity. The one hour time limit gives you enough time to notice that your iPhone<\/a> has been stolen and to report the theft to Apple.<\/p>\n

Apple releases iOS 17.3.1 to exterminate bugs<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Criminals have made the act of grabbing a stolen iPhone a science and it has become very lucrative for them. Facility iOS 17<\/span>.3 is not enough to protect you until you enable the feature. After installing the iOS 17<\/span>.3 update, immediately access Settings<\/span> > Face ID and passcode<\/span> and type your password. Scroll down to Stolen Device Protection and tap the blue line that says “Turn on protection” to enable the feature.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of next month, iOS 17<\/span>.4 is coming and will bring huge changes to iOS, Safari, and the App Store if you live in the EU. THE iOS 17<\/span>Update .4 will also allow iPhone owners to operate the Stolen Device Protection feature at any time. Currently, it can be configured to work when the phone is in an unknown location, or it can be disabled. Considering how serious criminals are about stealing phones and how they can wipe out your financial accounts in the blink of an eye, having the feature set to work anytime, anywhere is probably a good thing to do .\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
