Apple Releases Updates To Fix Apple Watch Unlock Issue

July 27, 2021

Apple recently released an iOS 14.7.1 update to fix the iOS 14.7 update that interrupts the “unlock with iPhone” feature that Apple Watch users used to easily access their wristwear.

While the update is intended to fix the problem for Apple Watch users, iPhone and Mac users are advised to install the updates (iOS 14.7.1 and macOS 11.5.1).

Apple’s security notes reveal that both updates fix already exploited vulnerabilities.

These updates fix the memory corruption issues in Apple’s desktop and mobile operating systems.
