iOS 18.5 coming next week: Here's everything new

Apple is set to release the iOS 18.5 update starting the week of May 13, 2025, bringing software improvements to iPhone users worldwide.
This update follows earlier developer beta and release candidate versions as Apple finalizes fixes and features, focusing on security and usability enhancements.
IOS 18.5 enhances the Screen Time functionality by notifying parents whenever a child's device passcode is entered, adds support for carrier-enabled satellite emergency services across the entire iPhone 13 lineup, and includes improvements to the Mail and Settings apps.
Apple also adds a new Pride Harmony wallpaper and Pride Edition Apple Watch bands as part of its annual celebration supporting LGBTQ+ rights, reflecting the company’s ongoing advocacy.
The update aims to improve iPhone security and emergency readiness without major new features, while enabling select U.S. Carriers like T-Mobile to provide satellite messaging to iPhone 13 users.
