Release Date and new for iPhone

Date:

As Apple itself has confirmed, the new iOS 17.4 operating system for iPhone and iPad will arrive soon and will add many new features.

It seems that the new iOS 17.4 operating system is about to arrive! There are only a few weeks left until its official release for iPhone and iPad.

Apple released the current iOS 17.3 operating system several weeks ago, introducing some new features and resolving several issues. But the European Union imposed new conditions on Apple and all users of digital stores.

In particular, there is talk about the arrival of Sideload, which will radically change the security and use of applications on the iPhone.

iOS 17.4 release date

As for the possible release date, iOS 17.4 should arrive with watchOS 10.4, between March 4 and 7, 2024, if all goes well, as Apple itself confirmed through a press release.

Furthermore, the new European law will go into effect on March 7, so Apple must officially comply with it by that date.
