Apple releases iOS 14.7.1 and iPadOS 14.7.1 with bug fixes

After testing the iOS 14.7 for a few weeks, Apple released iOS 14.7 to the public last week. And after a couple of days, iPadOS 14.7 was also released. And now after a week the iOS 14.7.1 and iPadOS 14.7.1 are now available with some critical bug fixes and security updates. If you don’t know Apple is also testing the iOS 15 & iPadOS 15 which will go live for the public later this year. Check what’s new in the iOS 14.7.1 update.

Apple has been consistent with its software updates for beta as well as public beta. And if you are a beta tester then you are aware of the weekly update rollout process. Whenever a public update release has any issue or security flow, Apple releases an incremental update within a few days. The same we get to see for the iOS 14.7 update.

iOS 14.7.1 Update

Along with iOS 14.7.1 and iPadOS 14.7.1, Apple has also released the macOS Big Sur 11.5.1. No update for watchOS and tvOS this time. Both iOS 14.7.1 and iPadOS 14.7.1 are available to support devices with build version 18G82. It is a small incremental update with some bug fixes, so you won’t be seeing any big changes in this update. Below you can check the official changelog.

iOS 14.7.1 Changelog

iOS 14.7.1 fixes an issue where iPhone models with Touch ID cannot unlock a paired Apple Watch using the Unlock with iPhone feature. This update also provides important security updates and is recommended for all users.

iPadOS 14.7.1 Changelog

iPadOS 14.7.1 provides important security updates and is recommended for all users.

This is a small incremental update available to all users with support iPhones and iPads. So if you are on an iOS 14 public build, you will receive this update directly on your device. You can check for the update directly on your device by going to Settings > Software Update.

In case you have installed a beta profile on your iPhone or iPad for beta testing. Then you will not receive the update on your iPhone. In that case, you can remove the beta profile to get the latest stable iOS 14.7.1 update. But remember you will not receive beta updates unless you reinstall the beta profile.

How to Remove Beta Profile from iPhone and iPad

  1. Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Go to General and then Profile.
  3. Now it will show the Beta profile installed on your iPhone or iPad.
  4. Click on the available beta profile.
  5. Then click on the Remove Profile button.
  6. If it asks for the passcode, then enter your device passcode and click the Remove button.

And if your iPhone/iPad running a higher version (iOS 15 Beta), then you need to downgrade your Apple device. But it will remove all data from your iPhone. So, we don’t recommend downgrade unless you want to Jailbreak iPhone or iPad.
