Apple has released iOS 26.3, iPadOS 26.3 and other versions for its devices. This is expected to be the last major update before the launch of an updated version of the Siri voice assistant, MacRumors reported.
In addition to fixing bugs and closing vulnerabilities, the system now also has a tool to transfer data from iPhone to Android devices. Users will be able to transfer photos, messages, notes, apps, passwords, and other content without the need for third-party services.
The update also adds a feature to limit carrier tracking of your exact location. This innovation is only available on iPhone Air, iPhone 16e and iPad Pro with M5 chip from select operators in the US, Germany, Thailand and the UK.
For users in the EU, the ability to connect third-party accessories has been expanded. In particular, a simplified pairing mechanism for nearby devices has been implemented, similar to connecting AirPods. Additionally, third-party smartwatches will be able to receive and display notifications from the iPhone with responsive capabilities. Only one such device can be connected at a time.
