During the April event, Apple announced that it would release iOS 14.5 “next week”. A specific release date is left open.
IOS 14.5 release date officially revealed
After months of testing, iOS 14.5 is ready for the general public. Apple has confirmed that the new iPhone update will be rolled out from next week. As a result, we still do not know exactly when the update will appear.
Lots of improvements in iOS 14.5
Normally, Apple adds little function to iPhone interim update, but iOS 14.5 is secretly a decent upgrade. After updating, you can use iPhones with Face ID facial recognition while wearing a mouth mask, for example. That’s handy, because that way you can just show the mouth mask to unlock your iPhone: very hygienic.
Also cool: iOS 14.5 adds hundreds of new emoji and all kinds of ways to protect your privacy. For example, the update does everything it can to block trackers. The advertising industry uses these spies to track you around the web and serve up personalized ads.
You can also get started with the brand new paid podcast service from Apple from iOS 14.5. The company announced its Spotify competitor during the event, because Apple will also offer exclusive shows.
