Update Rollout: Apple has released iOS 18.6, macOS Sequoia 15.6, iPadOS 18.6, watchOS 11.6, tvOS 18.6, and visionOS 2.6, likely the last major updates before the fall transition to version 26.
Key Fixes:

Patched over two dozen security vulnerabilities, spanning Metal, WebKit, networking, and filesystem permissions.
EU-Specific Changes:
iOS and iPadOS now support alternate app stores and direct website app installs, aligning with the Digital Markets Act.
Legacy Support:
Older devices not eligible for version 18 still received security patches via iPadOS 17.7.9, macOS Ventura 13.7.7, and Sonoma 14.7.7.
Looking Ahead:
Public betas of version 26 are already out. Expect unified updates across platforms this fall.
