Apple issues urgent alert for every iPhone owner – ignoring it is dangerous

APPLE has pushed out its latest iOS update for iPhones globally which includes some important security fixes.

Almost 40 vulnerabilities have been identified by the tech giant.

And three of them were actively exploited, reports .

The trio affected Apple's WebKit - a browser engine for Safari - which could have been used by a remote attacker.

Other bugs include issues with Siri, Shortcuts, System Settings, Weather and WiFi.

Users are urged to update their iPhone as soon as the notification lands.

You can check if it's available now by going to Settings, followed by General and Software Update.

The latest version - iOS 16.5 - did have some minor feature upgrades too.

Apple has added a dedicated Sports tab in Apple News now.

This provides sports lovers with the latest news stories, as well scores and standings.

You can even select your favourite teams and leagues so you receive personalised updates.

Apple has also added some free new wallpapers.

Two new pride illustrations join the collection, ahead of Pride Month in June.
