Aside from iOS 26.3, Apple has released iPadOS 26.3, the latest update to the iPadOS 26 operating system.
Just like the iOS, the latest update focuses mainly on security improvements and bug fixes.
The company addressed issues in Accessibility and Live Captions that could allow someone with physical access to a locked device to view sensitive information.
Security patches were also released for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to fix denial-of-service and memory corruption vulnerabilities.
Apple resolved issues in CoreServices and the Kernel that could potentially let apps gain elevated or root privileges, while a CFNetwork flaw that could allow arbitrary file writing has been fixed.
WebKit received multiple updates to prevent malicious web content from causing crashes or tracking users through Safari extensions.
Apple also patched Sandbox and libxpc vulnerabilities that could allow apps to escape restrictions, along with fixes for Photos and Screenshots to address lock screen and deleted data exposure concerns.
Notably, Apple said a dyld vulnerability may have been exploited in a highly targeted attack on earlier iOS versions. The issue has now been patched.
Storage requirements for the update may vary depending on the device and the current OS version installed.
iPadOS 26.3 is now available globally, including in the Philippines.
