iPadOS 18.0.1 out now with bug fixes
Apple has released iOS 18.0.1, bringing bug fixes to iPad and iPadOS 18 to the M4 iPad Pro models for the first time after the update was retracted by Apple due to reported bricking issues.
In the release notes, Apple says iPadOS 18.0.1 fixes an issue where “Messages may unexpectedly quit when replying to a message with a shared Apple Watch face, and Performance may be impacted due to an issue with memory allocation on some iPad models.”
Apple initially released iPadOS 18 on Monday, September 16, but withdrew it the following day after some M4 iPad Pro owners reported their devices becoming unusable.
Similar to iOS 18, iPadOS 18 includes an all-new customizable Home Screen, a redesigned Control Center and Photos app, a long-awaited password manager app, the ability to lock apps with Face ID or Touch ID, iMessage improvements, including the ability to use any emoji as a Tapback reaction and schedule messages, format text with bold or underline, RCS support for improved messaging with Android devices, and more.
