Our iOS/ iPadOS Update Policy
We do our best to make sure WineDirect runs smoothly without bugs for every iOS/iPadOS update, which usually happens once a year.
However, we can't foresee all potential issues, so it's our policy to ask that you wait to upgrade the iOS/iPadOS on your Apple products running WineDirect until we give you the all-clear. Upgrades will come without headaches by waiting until we've worked out the kinks, and you can enjoy all the incredible benefits that Apple's enhancements bring with each release.
How will you know when we have everything tested on our end?
Check out our News Releases section for updates about iOS/iPadOS testing, bug fixes, new features, etc.
iOS 16 Update Status
We're cleared for takeoff! You can now update your devices to iOS 16 for iPhones and iPadOS 16 for iPads. Please reference this link to confirm your device's compatibility with these late Apple platform versions.
