In Spain it was already night, although in Apple Park the sun was still shining when the apple company released iOS 13.6.1, iPadOS 13.6.1 and a complementary update of macOS 10.15.6. These new versions of software are now available for compatible devices and despite the fact that Apple’s new systems such as iOS 14 are already on the horizon, the truth is that the company does not abandon those who are not in beta and remain in stable versions .
What’s new in iOS 13.6.1 and iPadOS 13.6.1
We do not know if these will be the latest versions of iOS and iPadOS 13 before the next versions arrive, but if they were necessary updates in many cases. If you have a device that is in a version 13.6 or earlier, it is best to update by going to Settings> General> Software update. The new versions are not too heavy, so it won’t take too long to download. In any case, remember that problems updating iOS can be due to many factors.
The main reason to update is because, as in every update, new security measures are implemented that make it possible for you to continue using your Apple equipment with total reliability. The other reasons are related to the bug fixes in these versions. One of the problems that it addresses is the one that caused the storage to fill up with what are known as junk files, which are automatically deleted and in the previous version it was not doing so. It also ends a curious problem in some iPhone that made the screen look greenish , this being something very annoying. Another error corrected is related to the COVID-19 tracking apps , since there were some users who did not receive the notifications correctly.
MacOS 10.15.6 Supplemental Update
The next macOS Big Sur, also known as macOS 11, will change many things on Mac computers, but until then we continue with the Catalina versions. Yesterday an update was also released for these teams, although in this case it was not a new version as such but a complementary version of the current 10.15.6, so it is understood that there were not many new features included in this version. Mainly it fixes a stability problem when using programs for virtualization , in addition to correcting a small problem on the screen of the new 27-inch iMac 2020 released a few days ago.
Remember that you can find this update available from System Preferences> Software Update. In this case, it is a minor update, but equally advisable. The time it takes to download is negligible and the installation does not take too long considering that there is little that has to be installed on the Mac.
