Apple Releases IOS 9.3.5 To The Public

UPDATE: Via The New York Times, today’s iOS update patches three security vulnerabilities found and used by NSO Group to read text messages and emails and track calls and contracts.

Many have thought that iOS 9.3.4 was going to be the final version of iOS 9 before iOS 10 dropped. Well, Apple has now issued iOS 9.3.5 to the public.

The update comes a day after the company has stopped signing iOS 9.3.2 and iOS 9.3.3, and Apple says iOS 9.3.5 is likely to feature bug fixes and stability improvements. The prior update to iOS 9.3.5 patched the latest iOS 9 jailbreak.

iOS 9.3.5 will likely be the final update for iOS 9, as iOS 10 is less than a month away. To update, hop into Settings > General > Software Update, or plug your iOS device into iTunes and update that way.
