currently using ios 12.4.5 on ipad air. wary about updating to 12.4.9. anyone had problems

Anyone had problems after updating to iOS 12.4.9? Have iPad Air currently using iOS 12.4.5. Concerned as advice says no going back if problems! I’m a 73year old so not very tech savvy!

iPad Air, iOS 12

My Mom is roughly the same age as you and has the same iPad Air 1 model.

I updated her 2013 iPad Air 1, via iTunes on a computer, with no issue.

This point update is a security update and these are needed security updates.

Your iPad Air 1 is a few point updates ( again security updates ) behind.

These iOS 12 point updates are really needed.

Should be no issues to this update.


Best of Luck to You!
