Updating iphone to 2 2 dating official documents

And with every i OS update, there’s the question that comes up, especially for owners of older devices: “Should I install the new update? ” It’s been an urban legend for years that Apple intentionally crippled its older devices with software updates, to subtly encourage customers to upgrade to the latest and greatest model — something that was confirmed, at least in part, with the revelations about Apple’s battery throttling late last year.

After all, running the latest version of i OS on a five-year-old phone doesn’t really help anyone if it runs terribly.Unlike in years past, where the focus has been on bright, flashy changes — whether that be a wholly new look for the operating system, redesigned notifications and widgets, or redesigned apps — this year’s update puts the emphasis first on better, instead of just looking better.Or to put it another way: if most i OS updates tend to focus on the flashy, candy-like dessert, this year Apple is serving up a big, heaping plate of vegetables.Installing i OS 12, for the first time I can remember, has made my i Phone and i Pad feel faster and more stable, not less.In weeks of testing (both on the public beta and Apple’s finalized software), my year-old i Phone X flies through tasks.
