News media is again today 9/8/23 urgently telling us to update iPhones and iPads, iOS 16.6.1 and iPadOS 16.6.1.  Apparently there is another security flaw - that is actually being exploited by the bad people out there - that the security update fixes.  Probably a good idea to check your devices and update if needed sooner rather than later.

@JanetsGirl Thank you for the notice. My iPhone updated automatically last night. I saw the notice this morning. I had no idea why it had done that.  I updated my iPad a few minutes ago. Now I will check on my laptop.

I was unaware of the urgent need to update.

Mine is set to automatically update tonight 👍🏼

@JanetsGirl @Thanks so much. I just completed mine. This was a major security issue.

Thank you for the info, I'm one who avoids updates until force-fed!

Thank you!  I would not have known but DH saw it on the news and did ours.  It's appreciated that you took the time to post this for others who also may not have known!
