iOS 17.0.2 & iPadOS 17.0.2 Released with Bug Fix for Data Transfer Issue
iOS 17.0.2 and iPadOS 17.0.2 have been released for iPhone and iPad, respectively. The updates include a bug fix to address an issue where data migration between devices can fail, causing the devices to brick and require a restore.
If you plan on purchasing any new iPhone or iPad in the near future and using the migration assistant to easily transfer your data between devices, like moving to an iPhone 15 Pro for example, it’s a good idea to download and install this update as soon as possible. If you’re not in the market for a new device, the update is less urgent.
Separately, Apple has released the final version of macOS Sonoma for Mac, Safari 17.0 for macOS Monterey & Ventura, and updates for Apple Watch as well.
