Apple surprised this afternoon with a new version of iOS that did not even go through the previous beta phase. iOs 11.2.1 arrived to fix Homekit security problems, as Apple had promised a few days ago, and thus close a new episode in the series of software failures that unfortunately we are suffering too often in recent months.
While normal users could download that update to fix the security flaw, Apple left those of us who had a Beta installed without any update, which was a bit strange. The answer has not been long in coming, and A few hours later, at a slightly unusual schedule, we already have the first beta of a new version with a peculiar numbering: 11.2.5.
In addition to the first Beta of iOS 11.2.5, it has also released the first Betas of the versions for Apple Watch and Apple TV: watchOS 4.2.2 and tvOS 11.2.5. Right now we are updating our devices but from what we have seen through social networks of those users who have been in a hurry to update, At the moment there is no noticeable novelty, except that it will also include the solution to the security problem with HomeKit. If there is something important to highlight, we will let you know immediately.
A new formare version of the HomePod has also been launched, the Apple speaker that is not even for sale but that is already receiving updates, and that have helped us to discover things not only about the speaker itself but also about other devices, such as the iPhone X itself before it was released. HomePod version 11.2.5 is now available, although only Tim Cook and few others have it at home at the moment. The speaker will not go on sale until 2018, without knowing the exact date yet.
