Yesterday evening, Apple released the iOS 17.1.2 and iPadOS 17.1.2 update, and it also issued updates for all its other systems. This update is a surprise to us and the reason is that we are waiting for the 17.2 update, which will bring many features, and it was expected that Apple would release it this week, so why another sub-update? ? The reason, as I expected, is security and it appears to be dangerous. There is information indicating a vulnerability in the web engine that may lead to the disclosure of sensitive information to the user.
New in iOS 17.1.2 according to Apple ...
- This update provides important security fixes and is recommended for all users.

If I delete the application and reinstall it, will I lose conversations, groups, photos, or videos?
Hi Ali 🙋♂️, If you delete the app and reinstall it, you will lose your conversations, groups, photos and videos unless you have backed them up to iCloud or iTunes. Therefore, it is always better to make a backup before deleting any application 👍😉.
Hello, I have a XNUMX Pro Max device, and I updated directly from XNUMX to this latest version, but I had a minor problem.
My phone is completely in English, meaning the system.
In the WhatsApp application, when I write in Arabic now, it is written from the left side and not from the right side. The writing is correct, but it starts from the left side. In the old system, XNUMX used to start from the right. This problem is only in WhatsApp and not in other applications. Mashallah, your application is working perfectly. What is the solution, please?
Hello Ali 🙋♂️, it seems that you are experiencing a problem with the WhatsApp application after the update. This issue may be caused by a bug in the software itself and not in iOS 17.1.2 to which it occurs. I think the solution could be to try deleting the application, then reinstalling it again, then restarting the device. If this doesn't solve the issue, it may be best to contact WhatsApp Support to inform them of the issue. You may need to wait for a new update from WhatsApp to resolve this issue. 🤷♂️📱
After this update, we stopped sharing anything on WhatsApp, on Airdrop, or on messages. Frankly, I don’t know what the problem is. I did a factory reset on the phone and got the backup from iCloud, and the problem was not solved. I went back to setting the phone to reset.
And the problem was not solved. Frankly, I do not know how to work on the phone, and I do not share anything on work groups or personal groups, and the phone became one, and I said it was one.
Hello Bahaa Al-Salibi 😊, it seems that you are facing a very important problem after the update. Unfortunately, this problem may be caused by a programming error from Apple itself. I apologize for the inconvenience, and I hope that Apple will release a new update to solve this problem as soon as possible 🙏🍎.
Finally, with this update, the temperature problem when charging has ended
I hope you benefit from this necessary update 👍🏻
Whoever notices this thing like me confirms this to his brothers so that they can be reassured
Finally, thanks to the owner of the site for what he provides ❤️
I noticed a new feature: you can drag your finger on the keyboard and it starts typing words
Welcome to Sharyan Al-Sham! 👋 Yes, this feature is known as “Swipe Typing” and has been available in iOS since version 13. This feature allows you to move your fingers over letters to type words instead of pressing each letter individually. It's a fast and fun way to write! 🚀😉
The option to zoom in with the shot screen and take a full screen shot has been cancelled!!! for him ?! The two most important features for me
very good
In Wi-Fi, under the name of the company providing the Internet service, a phrase is written under the name of the company, “Weak Security.” What does it indicate? Is the intention that the company providing the service is not secure? For information, this phrase is written with any company from which I receive the service, noting that the receipt is via optical cable and a router inside the home.
Hello Fares Al-Janabi 🖐️, The phrase “Weak Security” does not indicate that the Internet service provider is necessarily unsafe. Rather, it indicates that the type of encryption used in the Wi-Fi network is old or weak. This means that it is easier to be hacked by hackers. It is always preferable to use WPA2 or WPA3 to secure Wi-Fi networks. Also, always remember that security updates such as iOS 17.1.2 help protect your device from potential risks 🛡️📱.
Hi
Ok, if anyone is still on the 16.7.2 update, do you recommend that they stay updated or update?
Note that the device is 14 Pro Max
Hello Abu Fares 🙋♂️, my advice to you is to update to the latest version of iOS. New updates often contain security improvements and bug fixes, as well as new features. Especially in your case, your iPhone 14 Pro Max can handle new updates with ease. Just remember to take a backup before updating for greater security. 📱🚀
May God reward you and thank you for the update
Good evening
It happened and everything is fine
Battery 88%
Use 2:4 hours
The battery was destroyed. Hopefully, with your luck, Apple
Welcome to Bahgat Alaubidi 🙋♂️, it looks like you are having a battery problem, but don't worry! Apple is always improving battery performance with every update. It may be a good idea to restart or even reset the settings. And remember, there's always a new Apple Watch on the horizon, so it might be a good time to upgrade your device! 📱🔋😉
The article did not clarify, why did Apple issue this update?
Hello Sultan Muhammad 😊, Apple issued this update to fix a security vulnerability in the web engine that could have caused sensitive user information to be exposed. 🛡️🍎
Updates are ongoing and are security most of the time, and they may be there before the end of the year
iOS 17 takes up 11 gigabytes of memory
Note that the update has finished
What is the solution ?
Hello Bahaa Al-Salibi 🙋♂️, The large size of the update might be a result of the new features and improvements in iOS 17. But don't worry, you can free up some space by deleting unnecessary apps or moving some photos and videos to iCloud. Enjoy the iOS 17 experience! 🚀📱
What do you advise me to update or not? May God reward you with a thousand good
My phone Xs battery status max. XNUMX
