Όπως αναμενόταν η Apple έκανε διαθέσιμες στο ευρύ κοινό τις iOS 12.1, watchOS 5.1, tvOS 12.1 και macOS 10.14.1.
Οι σημερινές αναβαθμίσεις φέρνουν μια σειρά από νέα χαρακτηριστικά όπως τα Group FaceTime, dual SIM υποστήριξη για τα iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, και iPhone XR, καθώς και νέα emojis.
Συμφωνά με το συνοδευτικό κείμενο της watchOS 5.1, η πολυαναμενόμενη ECG εφαρμογή δεν έχει γίνει ακόμη διαθέσιμη.
Το macOS επίσης με την αντίστοιχη αναβάθμιση του φέρνει υποστήριξη των νέων emojis και του Group FaceTime.
Για το tvOS δεν γνωρίζουμε ακόμη τι νέο φέρνει αυτή η αναβάθμιση αλλά μάλλον έχει να κάνει με διορθώσεις bugs.
Τέλος έχουμε αναβάθμιση και του HomePod όπου η Apple αναφέρει στο συνοδευτικό κείμενο “γενικές βελτιώσεις για την σταθερότητα και την ποιότητα”
