Apple has been released last night a new software upgrade: iOS 11.4 is here for all supported iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. The update comes with a few new features and many security and bug fixes.
IOS 11.4 was released about a month after iOS 11.3.1 was released for further security, compatibility and stability improvements on iOS devices. But this is the first version with the Messages in iCloud feature, which allows users to store their message chats in their iCloud accounts for easy synchronization across all devices.
So after upgrading to iOS 11.4, you will be prompted by the messaging app to enable Messages in iCloud, which Apple has enabled by default for those using two-factor authentication in iCloud.
Another new feature that this version brings is AirPlay 2. The feature offers stereo mapping and polyphonic audio support on the Apple Smart HomePod as well as the Apple TV.
AirPlay 2 allows iOS users to control their AirPlay 2-enabled home audio systems, play music on multiple speakers in their home, control AirPlay 2 speakers from iOS Control Center or the iPhone lock screen, and of the iPad. THE control will also be able to be done through Siri, from Apple TV and HomePod, while you will be able to receive calls or play games gamea without stopping playback.
iOS 11.4 fixes several issues from the previous version, including a bug that prevented users from signing in or accessing files in Google Docs, Google Drive, and Gmail from within the program browsing Safari.
Η information of iOS 11.4 is available to download and install via OTA (Over-the-Air).
IOS 11.4 (15F79) can run on devices: iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone SE, iPhone 5s, 9.7 Chinch and 12.9 ‑ inch iPad Pro, 2nd generation 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro, 5th and 6th generation iPad, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2, and iPod touch 6th generation.
