May 22, 2025 am 09:34 AM
Apple has released iOS 17.4 update for iPhone, and ipadOS 17.4 update for iPad.
The iOS/iPadOS 17.4 updates feature new Emoji icons including a phoenix and mushroom, a podcasts transcription feature, a handful of bug fixes and security updates, along with some minor additions and changes. European users also gain some specific new capabilities that allow them to add apps from outside the App Store, but users outside the EU zone will not have those options.
Separately, macOS Sonoma 14.4, watchOS 14.4, tvOS 14.4, and visionOS 1.1 are not yet available, but are expected to launch in the near future.
How to Download & Install iOS 17.4 / iPadOS 17.4 Update
You will want to make sure that you backup the iPhone or iPad to iCloud or a computer before starting the software update. Doing so makes sure you do not lose your data in the rare event that something goes wrong.
- Open the “Settings” app on iPhone or iPad
- Go to “General”
- Select “Software Update”
- Choose to “Update Now” for iOS 17.4 / iPadOS 17.4 to start the download and update process
Installing iOS 17.4 or iPadOS 17.4 requires the iPhone or iPad to restart, as usual.
You can also update your iPhone or iPad by connecting your device to a computer with Finder, or iTunes, or the newer Apple Devices app in Windows.
Advanced users can also use IPSW files to update their devices manually, though there’s little reason to take that approach for the majority of users.
