Well, this is something we haven’t seen before. What does it mean?

But now, it seems, Apple is working on something else. While it might be expected that something like iOS 14.7.2 could come along to tidy up any unexpected issues with 14.7.1, this is something else.

It’s a whole digit up, iOS 14.8, at a time when iOS 15, already up to its fifth release to developers, is only a matter of a few weeks away. There has never been a .8 update before. The information comes from mentions in Xcode, spotted by Twitter users, indicating the software is coming.One of the changes that Apple has introduced is a new choice. Users can update to the whole new software, iOS 15, or can choose to stick on iOS 14 but, crucially, still avail themselves of software updates relating to security.

So, higher release numbers are inevitable, and may go on for some weeks or months after iOS 15 is live. As for what it means, well, we’ll have to wait and see Although security will be front-and-center, I really don’t rule out the possibility that new features will sneak in as well. After all, since every single iPhone that can run iOS 14 can run iOS 15 as well, there’s no reason for Apple to restrict features just to the new software.
