iPhone 17 Pro Max iOS version reverted from 26.2 to 26.1 My iPhone 17 Pro Max reverted from iOS 26.2 back to 26.1 this morning. I thought that was not possible. Has my iPhone been hacked or cloned? I updated my iPhone17 to iOS 26.2 in December, the day it was released to the public. I've checked the for software updates periodically over the past month and it always said it was up to date and displayed 26.2. This morning it said it was going to update tonight, I wasn’t aware of any new updates so checked what it was updating to, and it said 26.2. So I checked the current version and it said 26.1. Not possible, right? I figured it was a Software glitch, so I rebooted my iPhone several times, I’ve turned off updates and rebooted several times more. It still says it is at 26.1 and the 26.2 update has been downloaded and is ready to update. What should I do?

Updates beyond 16.4.1 (a) Have an iPad Pro 12.9” 4th gen. My questions is: if this cannot be updated any more, is this iPad vulnerable to hackers and generally not as secure while online?

Exactly where within settings is it suggesting you are using an Android device.
