Apple Stops Signing iOS 13.2 Following Launch of iOS 13.2.2

Thursday November 14, 2019 11:55 AM PST by Juli Clover

Following the release of iOS 13.2.2 on November 7, Apple has stopped signing iOS 13.2, which means downgrading to iOS 13.2 is no longer possible.

iOS 13.2 was a major update that brought support for AirPods Pro, added new emojis, and introduced Deep Fusion support for the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro.

Apple routinely stops signing older versions of software updates after new releases come out in order to encourage customers to keep their operating systems up to date.

iOS 13.2.2 is the current public version of iOS. iOS 13.2.2 is a bug fix release that addresses an issue that caused apps running in the background to unexpectedly quit, leading to background apps refreshing more often than normal.

The update also fixes a few other bugs with cellular connectivity, cellular data, Safari, and more.

Developers and public beta testers can also download iOS 13.3, an upcoming update that introduces Communication Limits for Screen Time and a handful of other tweaks and changes.

I think that was just sarcasm, guys. He was comparing it to iOS 11 to emphasize how bad is iOS 13 (for him, at least).

This is a travesty? Oh no, please don't allow us to return to 13.2.

You know what? I want iOS 11 back. iOS 13 has been a poopshow.

iOS 11? Do you hate yourself?

You mean iOS 12?

iOS 11 had fair share of users complaining. Just browse the early iOS 11 subforum.

I’d have to agree. Enough with the “Apple stops signing” posts.

One doesn’t really need to read something that isn’t of interest.
