Apple releases iOS 17.2 and iPadOS 17.2 update

IOS 17.2 update From Apple, it is now available for iPhone, iPad, and other devices such as the Apple Watch. The update includes Apple's new Diary app, which is designed to allow you to write your diary and events in your life using information derived from the data on your phone. The update also comes with the feature of recording spatial videos, but only for iPhone 15 Pro phones.

Apple also released the iOS 16.7.3 update for devices that do not support the new update

The diary app was announced in Apple Developers Conference Coming out in June, it's a health and wellness-focused feature that aims to get you thinking about the small and big moments in your life. Although its interface is a bit simple, its biggest strength is its ability to recognize “moments” based on your phone data, including locations you've visited, photos you've taken, or workouts you've done. We believe that this application will have a major role when Apple adopts artificial intelligence. Remember what we are telling you now. Let's start with what's new in this update.
