[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1916644, member: 190607"] Perhaps you could post a link to where you read this? After some Googling, I found this page, which lists what is in iOS 15.6.1, but which doesn't seem to list anything in iOS 15.6.1 that would make it imperative to install "immediately": [URL code="true"]https://www.techspot.com/drivers/driver/file/information/18240/ [/URL] This page says that iOS 15.6.1 is already causing some problems for some users: [URL code="true"]https://www.gottabemobile.com/5-things-to-know-about-the-ios-15-6-1-update/[/URL] This site makes it sounds like it is imperative to upgrade to iOS 15.6.1, but The Sun is a known source of hyperbole and, to be blunt, lies. Plus, they give no specifics on what is in iOS 15.6.1, or what about it is so important, whatsoever: [URL code="true"]https://www.the-sun.com/tech/6025259/iphone-ios-15-6-1-update-free/[/URL] If you go to Apple's own Web site to find out about iOS 15.6.1: [URL code="true"]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213412[/URL] It sounds like this release has patched a couple of exploits that "Apple has heard of". Okay. But that's what they say about just about every iOS upgrade. I think that you will be fine if you don't upgrade to iOS 15.6.1 immediately. In fact, given that there are reports that it has caused some folks some problems, I think that it might be wise to wait a few days before upgrading to see if Apple pushes out a 15.6.2 version to fix the bugs.
