- Apple has pulled the iPadOS 18 update for iPad Pro M4 models after it bricked some users’ tablets.
- The company is sending affected users replacement units as it’s seemingly impossible to revive bricked ones with a computer.
- Other iPad models can still download and install the update, while M4 users must wait for a patched version of this release.
iPadOS 18 launched earlier this week, packing a wide range of exciting additions and changes. These include a native Calculator app, dark and tinted app icons, a revamped Photos app, and a nasty software bug that could completely brick your iPad Pro M4.
Apple has pulled the iPadOS 18 update on iPad Pro M4 models as it was bricking some users’ tablets. Those who have already downloaded the update won’t be able to install it now since the company has stopped signing it, and, as a result, the verification fails. Users with non-M4 models, on the other hand, can proceed with installing the update normally since the bug seemingly doesn’t affect them.
