Rapid Security Response Updates - (a) 16.4.1

System Updates 3 years since publication

Apple today released Rapid Security Response (RSR) updates available to iPhone and iPad users who have iOS 16.4.1. This is the first quick security update that Apple releases to the public. Rapid Security Response Updates are designed to provide Apple users with security fixes without having to install a full system update.

Security updates are available through the software update mechanism in the iPhone or iPad settings application, but it is a quick update, requiring only two minutes to download the update and then a quick restart of the installation process.

What is Rapid Security Response (RSR) Update?

Apple launched this system of updates to mitigate some threats more quickly, especially those that have been exploited or reported to be in the public domain.

RSR updates can be installed automatically by default. Some of these updates can be installed without restarting the device, but some may require a restart. You can choose to turn off automatic installation of RSR updates through Settings, but that won't do you any good, because these updates provide important security improvements. So in order to protect your device, it might be best to let these updates install automatically.

Note: Apple releases Rapid Security Response updates in stages over the next 48 hours, so not all users will see them right away.

Peace be upon you, I have a problem with the updates, which is that I do not see any notification that there is a new update, and I have to enter from a year ago and then update the programs in order to make sure that there is an update or not. Even this update did not know about its release except by chance after I saw the title of this article on Widget Phone Islam and I updated the phone after that
How do I fix this problem?

    Hi there! 😊 It looks like you're having trouble receiving update notifications. To fix this problem, you can try the following steps:

    1. Reboot your iPhone.
    2. Make sure your device is connected to Wi-Fi and the battery is charged to at least 50%.
    3. Go to Settings > General > Software Update. You may see the update here.

    If the problem persists, it may help to restore device settings (Settings > General > Restore > Restore All Settings). Don't worry, it won't cause you to lose your data.

    Hope this helps solve your problem! 📱✨

After the update, the face print stopped working until now. My phone is an iPhone X. I restarted it more than ten times to no avail.
Is there a solution or do I go back to the older update and how?
Thank you for your effort

    Hey Men Agle Zalek! 😊 Unfortunately, you can't go back to an earlier iOS update. But regarding the issue of the face fingerprint that has stopped working, you can try resetting the Face ID settings by going to “Settings” > “Face ID & passcode” > “Reset Face ID”. After that, reset Face ID again. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Apple Support for further assistance. 📱🔧

The solution from Apple was to re-download the entire OS, but of course I tried not to do a re-download because I do not have a backup… My solution was to reset network settings

    Hello Salman! 😊 Don't worry, fast RSR security updates usually don't affect battery percentage negatively. These updates are designed to provide security fixes without the need to install a full iOS update. Enjoy a safe and stable experience with your device! 📱🔋

After this update, I saw the 16.5 beta update for developers, although I am not a developer. How did this happen? Is there any error?

    Hi Amjad! 😊 It looks like your device got a developer beta update by mistake. Not to worry, you can remove the developer profile from the device settings and wait for the appropriate public update to appear.
