iOS 18.4 Available This Week With These New Features for Your iPhone
Apple is expected to release the iOS 18.4 update to the general public this week, following more than a month of beta testing.
Apple last week seeded multiple iOS 18.4 Release Candidates, which are typically the final beta versions, barring the discovery of any major last-minute software bugs. iOS updates are typically released one week after Release Candidates, and early April begins this week, so there is a strong chance that iOS 18.4 will be released this week.
Apple's website says some iOS 18.4 features will be released in "early April," so the update should be out as early as Tuesday, April 1.
iOS 18.4 is compatible with the iPhone XS series and newer, and it will be available in the Settings app under General → Software Update once it is released.
While the personalized Siri features that were originally expected to launch as part of iOS 18.4 have been delayed, the update still includes a handful of new features. There are a couple of Apple Intelligence additions, including Priority Notifications, along with an Ambient Music feature in Control Center, new emoji options, support for lossless audio and low-latency audio on the AirPods Max with a USB-C port, and more.
Other software updates like iPadOS 18.4, macOS 15.4, watchOS 11.4, tvOS 18.4, visionOS 2.4, and more should also be released this week.
