Apple is currently developing the iOS 18 update for its upcoming iPhone 16 series with speculated AI features. The iOS 18 version is likely to be unveiled in the summer and the launch will likely happen in the Fall period. While the new iOS update is under development, the company is bringing new and useful updates for iPhone users with iOS 17 sub-updates. And now, Apple has rolled out the iOS 17.3 update which is a major update for this year. This iOS 17.3 update has one very important feature that should have you hitting the download button instantly - the Stolen Device Protection feature.

Why iPhone users should install iOS 17.3 update

Stolen Device Protection: The biggest update that should make you download the new version is the stolen device feature, which enables iPhone users to protect their device's data from thieves. With this feature, no one can change the iPhone's password or turn off the Find My Device feature. This was an area that was being exploited by some people to steal the credentials from innocent users and they would find themselves locked out of their IDs. Now, the new feature has added extra precautions and steps that will need to be taken and this will likely stymie any efforts to steal IDs. Now, iPhones can be unlocked with Face ID or Touch ID to carry out any in-depth changes.
