iOS 18.3.1 Update Coming Soon for iPhones

Apple is internally testing iOS 18.3.1 for iPhones, according to our website's analytics logs, which have been a consistently reliable indicator of upcoming iOS versions. The software update should be released within the next few weeks.

iOS 18.3.1 should be a minor update that addresses software bugs and/or security vulnerabilities. Apple Intelligence notification summaries for news and entertainment apps are temporarily disabled on iOS 18.3 (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/01/16/ios-18-3-news-notifications-removed/) due to issues with inaccurate summaries, but it is unclear if they will be turned back on in iOS 18.3.1, or in a later update.



We are still waiting for Apple to seed the first iOS 18.4 beta this month. That update is expected to introduce several Apple Intelligence enhancements for Siri (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/01/03/siri-2025-updates/), new emoji (https://www.macrumors.com/2025/01/24/ios-18-4-beta-coming-soon/), the ability for EU users to set default map and translation apps (https://www.macrumors.com/2024/11/04/ios-18-4-default-maps-translate-apps-in-eu/), and more. Apple's website suggests that iOS 18.4 will be released in April, following beta testing.<div class="linkback">Related Roundups: iOS 18 (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ios-18/), iPadOS 18 (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ipados-18/)</div><div class="linkback">Related Forums: iOS 18 (https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/ios-18.244), iPadOS 18 (https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/ipados-18.245)</div>
