News: Happy 10th Anniversary, App Store! — MacRumors New releases: iOS 11.4.1, tvOS 11.4.1, WatchOS 4.3.2, HomePod 11.4.1.  iOS 12 Beta 3 was also released. As always, we do not recommend installing the beta on your main device. Use a spare to test it out if you have one. Allow some extra time for updating Apple Watch — perhaps watch an episode of your favorite tv show while it updates.
