The new software version iPhone mobile operating system designated as “iOS 14.5” is due for download soon. However, there are some good and valid reasons the users should wait for some time before opting to upgrade the operating system of their purchased iPads and iPhones.

As with any software, if you are planning to become an adopter of “iOS 14.5” from the word go, you should enlighten yourself about specific risks pertaining to that. If you want to know why you should see a few things before opting to download iOS 14.5 update on your device? Then, you can proceed to read further. 

After extensive public interest and beta considerations, the giant technological company named “Apple” is finally all set to unveil mobile operating system upgrades to its iPhones and iPads devices. Finally, after months of anxious wait, all the ardent users of Apple devices will now be able to download “iPadOS 14.5” and “iOS 14.5” on their devices. The highly anticipated updates are expected to be available soon; however, the exact date has not been revealed yet. Nevertheless, the rumors suggest the fact that the new updates that users will get will offer them some newest features such as never-seen-before “Siri” voices along with a sophisticated Face ID feature that will enable the users to use their device in spite of wearing a mask. 

If you are itching to see the looks of the latest software patch, then you are not alone as there are several people spread all across the world that do get tempted by any upgrade news related to Apple iPhones and iPads (in case you want to buy any of these, then you should know that the products are available to purchase at approximately $270 at Amazon website). Now, having said that, it is imperative to know that mindlessly downloading any software or Operating System updates can incur more problems for you than the solutions it may or may not provide. The peer pressure may ask you to get on board the hoard ship that is about to download the forthcoming “iOS 14.5” update; common sense tells us that it is worth being patient for a few days than unnecessarily bringing unrequited headaches into our lives.

Now, instead of just ranting, we should look at concrete reasons why it is not a good idea to download the “iOS 14.5” updates right away. The below-mentioned reasons make it clear why you should listen to your rational mind before giving in to the temptation. However, despite trying your best, if you cannot make amends with your temptation, then you should at least make certain that you are possessing an Apple backup before proceeding to download the iPhone and iPad OS updates (designated as iPadOS 14.5 and iOS 14.5) whenever they do get available. 

The Presence of a Detrimental Bug 

Well, sporadically, you might experience the presence of a disastrous bug in your device, which can inflict some adversaries to the performance optimization features of your Apple devices. However, it must be stated that it does not happen way too often, yet, users have reported facing serious problems with their devices the moment they install an update. If you want some examples, you can search about the 2016 update, which crippled the devices of some iPhone users, which did cause huge uproar on the internet. Interestingly, another update came around in the same year, which malfunctioned some troubleshot devices entirely. You should always keep a thumb rule in your mind that the moment you upgrade your phone, restoring the older version isn’t a straightforward method to follow. It’s almost like time, as once you lose it, you will never get it back. 

Several experts and reviewers from reputable sites such as CNET cautions users against installing the updates immediately. They suggest that users should fight the temptation, and they should wait patiently for at least a week after the launch of updates before proceeding to download the updates. One week is good enough for any kind of bug to show its face, and Apple can then remove the bug or take their updates back completely should they deem necessary. They can even replace the update with a better version fixing all the bug-related issues. 

All Developers Are Unlikely to be Up for It on Very First Day 

The whole crux of the matter is that nobody can guarantee whether your phone is ready for updates or not. There are several applications in your system; are they ready for updates? Well, technically, the primary issue you may or not encounter with Operating System updates is that there are several applications in your device, which haven’t been optimized for updates. Whenever Apple introduces updates, they make some specific alterations to the core code of the system, which application developers must adapt in accordance with if they want to see their application work in the updated device. If the application developer puts some added hard work and gives time to create an app that can work in accordance with the system changes, then the users do not encounter any update issues. 

However, it is just the general rule we are speaking about as there are instances when the latest update malfunctions the application completely, and unless the app developer is all set to relaunch the application-optimized with “iOS 14.5,” you are unlikely to use the application in your device ever again. 

By waiting for a few months, you are essentially giving time to both tech-giant Apple and all the application developers to figure out the updates completely so that they can both work coherently in the new updated system. If you wait for some days before downloading “iOS 14.5,” you are primarily saving yourself from getting caught up in all the mess. Another thing you should be wary of is the fact that when new updates arrive, nobody is really sure how to use most of the features; however, once you wait for a week, there will definitely be some guides, tutorials, or blogs on the internet helping you navigate through the entire upgraded device. 

Conclusion 

The latest updates, “iOS 14.5” and “iPadOS 14.5,” will be ready soon for the users. However, it remains to be seen whether the upgrades would be streamlined or not, so an intelligent user should wait out a few days. What is the rush? The updates wouldn’t go anywhere, and neither would you.
