Apple is rolling out updates for the iPhone and iPad. From now on you can download iOS 14.6 and iPadOS 14.6. In this article you can check how you can install this new software.
Download iOS 14.6 and iPadOS 14.6
A few weeks ago, Apple released iOS 14.5.1 and iPadOS 14.5.1 and now it is time for a next, (small) update. iOS 14.6 and iPadOS 14.6 are available for download from now on. As soon as Apple releases a new version of iOS or iPadOS, many people want to download the software immediately. This may mean that the update may not be visible on your iPhone or iPad yet. A matter of some extra patience and so try again later.
How to install iOS 14.6 or iPadOS 14.6:
- Make sure your iPhone or iPad battery is at least 50 percent full, or hang it on the charger;
- Go to the Settings app and tap on ‘General’;
- Select ‘Software Update’ and follow the instructions on the screen.
The iOS 14.6 update is not very spectacular. Actually, it is mainly the users of Apple Music that benefit. From then on they can enjoy Lossless Audio. As the name suggests, no quality is lost, making music sound better than ever before. Users do not have to pay extra for this, which is the case with other streaming services.
Another change is the improved privacy for the AirTag. With the arrival of iOS 14.6, you can also leave your email address in addition to your phone number. When someone finds your lost AirTag, they can scan the tracker with an iPhone (or other smartphone) to find out your email address and contact you. At first it was only possible to leave your telephone number.
Finally, it is possible to subscribe to Apple Podcasts from iOS 14.6. This form of subscription allows makers of audio shows to be paid by Apple. This is especially interesting for the listener, because it stimulates the development of original and exclusive content.
