They can install the major new release, or stay on the current version and get additional security updates and bug fixes.<\/p>\n Today, iOS 26.7 is that second option. It doesn\u2019t contain any new features, but it does ensure your iPhone stays up to date with the latest security patches.<\/p>\n The full list of security fixes has been published here<\/a>. It\u2019s an extensive list of patches, highlighting the importance of installing the update despite its lack of other improvements.<\/p>\n Are you upgrading to iOS 27 or keeping your iPhone on iOS 26.7 for now?
