There are indications that Apple is currently testing iOS 18.0.1 internally. This discovery was made based on evidence of the software update appearing in MacRumors’ website’s analytics this week. These analytics have a history of accurately predicting the release of various iOS versions through its logs.
We expect iOS 18.0.1 to be a minor update focused on bug fixes. Issues that could be addressed with the update include touchscreen issues affecting the iPhone 16 series and some older models, an iMessage bug where a shared Apple Watch face can cause the app to repeatedly crash, and iPadOS 18 bricking some iPad Pro units with the M4 chip.
It is unclear when iOS 18.0.1 will be released, but our best guess is the update will be available towards the end of next week at the latest.
