Apple releases iOS 10.3.3 update for iPhone and iPad

Apple has released the iOS 10.3.3 software update for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. The update focuses on bug fixes and performance improvements for all devices running iOS 10.

iOS 10.3.3 release notes:

iOS 10.3.3 includes bug fixes and improves the security of your iPhone or iPad.

While iOS 11 is currently in development and due out this fall, iOS 10.3.3 may be of the last software update to older hardware that won’t run iOS 11.

iOS 11 is currently in both developer and public beta so users can test major new features like drag-and-drop on new iPads before the official release later this fall.

iOS 10.3.3 released: Why it's an iPhone and iPad must-have

Apple has released a new version of iOS 10 for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, including a number of security patches affecting Safari, Messages, and more. The update, iOS 10.3.3, weighs in at 138.5 MB, and is as always a free download. Apple 's advice is that iPhone and iPad users should install it as soon as possible.

That because, while there are no new features, there are several patches which address security issues discovered in iOS 10. In the Contacts app, for instance, a remote hacker with nefarious intentions could cause software to crash or arbitrary code to be executed, because of a buffer overflow issue in how member was handled. Similarly, memory corruption was blamed for a potential exploit to the iOS kernel that could lead to code being run with system privileges.

As is increasingly the case in our connected world, some of the potential exploits could be enacted remotely. One WebKit patch, for instance, would allow "maliciously crafted web content" to run code without the user intending to, thanks to a variety of memory corruption issues. Another patch addresses a situation whereby a hacker within wireless range could potentially execute arbitrary code on the device's Wi-Fi chip.

In all, there are 24 listed patches and fixes that Apple has addressed in iOS 10.3.3. While the likelihood of a device actually falling foul of one of the identified loopholes is questionable, nonetheless the advice is that it's safest to keep your iPhone or iPad running the very latest version of iOS in order to stay most protected. In this case, iOS 10.3.3's patches are generally applicable back to the iPhone 5 or later, iPad 4th generation or later, and the iPod touch 6th generation.

For actual new features, mind, all eyes are on the next version of Apple's mobile platform. iOS 11 is currently in public beta, though the full general release isn't expected until later in the year. That will include significant improvements in multitasking, including more flexible split-screen layouts and drag-and-drop, together with more advanced access to the underlying file system iOS uses. In short, for iPad at least, it looks set to further close the gap between tablet and notebook.

In the meantime, you can download iOS 10.3.3 by heading to the Settings on your iPhone or iPad, then choosing the General option, and then Software Update. From there, iOS should automatically find the new version and offer to download and install it. It's worth being on WiFi when that happens.

Apple Releases iOS 10.3.3 With Bug Fixes and Security Improvements [Updated]

Apple today released iOS 10.3.3 to the public following several weeks of beta testing with six betas provided to developers and public beta testers. iOS 10.3.3 comes more than two months after the launch of iOS 10.3.2 , a minor bug fix update.

iOS 10.3.3 is a free over-the-air update available to all users with a compatible iOS device. It can also be downloaded and installed on iOS devices using iTunes on a Mac or PC.

Apple's work on iOS 10 is winding down as the company prepares to launch the next-generation version of iOS, iOS 11, which first debuted at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. iOS 11 will see a release in the fall following a summer of beta testing. With work shifting to iOS 11, iOS 10.3.3 is likely to be one of the final updates we see to iOS 10.

Update: Apple has shared detailed notes covering the bug fixes that were introduced in iOS 10.3.3. Among the fixes is an update for a major vulnerability that would have allowed hackers to execute code on the Broadcom Wi-Fi chip built into many iOS devices. This issue was also previously addressed in iOS 10.3.1 .

I just downloaded this update and it bricked my phone - got the infamous black screen with the iTunes logo and the lightning cable.

Oh yeah, all I need to do is perform a restore via iTunes. I've had this happen once in the past. It'll be a boring commute home, though!

I'll stay on the latest 10 until 11 is confirmed free of significant issues.

Troubleshooting, ios 10.3.3 update released for iphone, ipad [ipsw download links].

Apple has released the final version of iOS 10.3.3 for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. The update is said to include bug fixes and security enhancements for iOS, and no new features are included in the software update.

Links to download iOS 10.3.3 IPSW are included below, though the majority of users are best served by installing iOS 10.3.3 through the Software Update feature or from iTunes.

How to Download & Update to iOS 10.3.3

The easiest way to update to iOS 10.3.3 is through the Software Update mechanism of iOS. Always backup an iPhone or iPad before installing any software update, even if is a minor point release update.

• Go to the “Settings” app and choose “General” and then go to “Software Update”
• Tap “Download and Install” when iOS 10.3.3 shows as available

The iPhone or iPad will automatically download and install the update, which is fairly small, and then reboot when the update has been completed.

Users can also choose to install iOS 10.3.3 through iTunes and a computer, or by using IPSW firmware files to manually update.

iOS 10.3.3 IPSW Download Links

IPSW links point directly to firmware files on Apple servers. Be sure to save the firmware file with a .ipsw file extension, for best results right-click on an IPSW download link and choose “Save As” to prevent the file saving incorrectly as a zip.

• iPhone 7 Plus
• iPhone 6s Plus
• iPhone 6 Plus
• 10.5-inch iPad Pro 2017
• 9.7-inch iPad 2017 (iPad 7?)
• 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2017
• 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2016
• 9.7-inch iPad Pro 2016
• iPad Air 2 (iPad 6)
• iPad Air (iPad 5)
• iPad Mini 2
• iPad Mini 3
• iPad Mini 4
• iPod Touch 6th generation

Using IPSW is considered more advanced, but is not particularly difficult. Just be sure to download the proper firmware file for your device.

iOS 10.3.3 is separate from iOS 11, the latter of which is currently in ongoing beta and due for public release this fall.

Separately, Apple has also released macOS Sierra 10.12.6 for Mac users, watchOS 3.2.3 for Apple Watch, and tvOS 10.2.2 for Apple TV.

Anyone help me to update my iOS 8.1.3 to ios 10 or 11.

I have an iPad mini 2 and need to install ios10.3 to access soft wear do the soft wear update on my machine and I have iOS 9 ???? Any suggestions

Again, we experience forced upgrades that don’t work. I’m wanting to upgrade from ios 10.2.1 to ios 10.3.3 on my iPod Touch 6G, but my only options appear to be to go all the way to the photo-destroying (bad color balance) ios 12. (Also, there are other reasons I don’t want ios 12, too, particularly the os overhead’s effect on battery life.)

Thank you again, apple, for nothing.

Thank you for fixing a problem we didn’t have.

TIM COOK NEEDS TO BE FIRED. Then I’d consider coming back to Apple.

In all honesty, the only thing I’d buy now from Apple is the iMac.

So sad that Apple cares not an inch for their buyers & customer loyalty :-(((

cant able to update while selecting its shows not a signed one cant able to downgrade

Getting this message: The iPhone “” could not be updated. Declined to authorize this image on this device for this user.

If I’ve downloaded 10.3.3 while apple was still signing it will it work after they stop signing it?

No, Apple has to sign the IPSW version for it to restore. It uses an internet connection to verify signing.

I am upgraded ios 10.3.3 to 11 but now my iPhone 6 Plus showing touch problem now what I do for downgrading ios11 to iOS 10.3.3

How do you downgrade iOS 11.1 to iOS 10.3.3 on an iPhone 8?

When I select and start download the iOS 10 for my phone, 5s, in my downloads on the desktop it says it’s for iPhone 4. Why is that? Anybody knows?

That’s fine. just download it. same with me but it worked

Hi, is anybody experiencing the issue of Error 3194, Error 17, or ‘This device isn‘t eligible for the requested build‘?

I’ve checked their site https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201442 , and have checked that both of the hosts file and internet connection are okay and I’m not using any filtering/firewall/security software.

If anybody knows the solution for this problem, would you kindly share how?

You can no longer update to iOS 10.3.3 because it is no longer signed by Apple. The firmware must be signed by Apple in order to install that version. You can learn more about IPSW firmware signing here; https://osxdaily.com/2016/10/15/check-ipsw-signing-status/

yep happened to me too. Tryign to fix an iphone 6s plus and got no luck cause ios 10.3.3 is no longer signed! Ideas, anyone?

I was directed to this site to downgrade from iOS 11. I decided to downgrade because the mail and message apps were worse in the new version. I connected my phone to a windows iTunes computer and could only restore – not update – the phone back to iOS 10.3.3. I lost all my data but could gain some back from the last iOS 10.3.3 backup it recognized on my iCloud account. I couldn’t use the iOS 11 backup created after the iOS 11.1 update. The phone seems to work as it did before but the background I had with the iOS 10 version is different now and doesn’t seem to be available in the display settings. This makes me suspicious about whether I have a true apple iOS version installed and I’m wondering if my phone is secure.

Only iOS IPSW files from Apple can be verified by Apple servers and installed onto an iPhone or iPad. In other words, as long as the IPSW you downloaded came from an Apple server, and was installed onto the device (they can only be installed as they are being signed by Apple, it is a verification process), then yes you are on a “true” Apple iOS release. The links to firmware here are to Apple servers, you can verify the URL by hovering over and you will see the Apple CDN server url with apple.com as the root domain. Hope that helps.

But yes you are correct, iOS 11 backups can not be used to restore to an iOS 10.3.3 device, so you must have an iOS 10.3.3 backup to use after a downgrade. Otherwise, you’d have to update back to iOS 11 again. Eventually iOS 11 or newer will be all that is signed by Apple, which then makes downgrading impossible.

Can’t apple realease another software update that will fix the rapid battery drainage issue? I think it’s the best thing to do.

My iphone 6 crashing and random restarts. and on off button doesn’t work, i try to downgrade on off button can work as well. but now i try updated ios 11 still same problem.

I have iphone 5s it did automatic update to ios 11 how to downgrade to 10 3.3 it not letting me

Websites for downloading ipsw file will not open.

They are direct links to the .ipsw file from Apple servers, it is not a website but a file download link to the firmware of iOS 10.3.3

Thanks Full.

@MDT – Yes – My iphone 6 same issue, crashing and random restarts. It’s an issue with the battery, apple store will replace for free – in the uk.

What’s the advantage of using an IPSW file for a clean iOS install over selecting “Restore” in iTunes? To me it seems there shouldn’t be a difference, yet I see this method being recommended on several websites.

I believe that if you do itunes restore you will lose all your data unless you have a backup

Anyone else’s device randomly restarting after update to 10.3.3?iPhone 6S Plus 64GB (Late 2016)

randomly restarts alot

I need the IOS 10

How to download iOS 10.3.3 public beta 6 to your iPhone or iPad

iOS 10.3.3 is coming down the road with a number of new features — features that need real-world testing before the software officially launches. As such, Apple is letting interested users check out iOS 10.3.3 and provide feedback before it goes into wide release.

If you're one of those interested users, however, you will have to go through the public beta download and install process. While it's not complicated, it is different. So, we're going to walk you through it and give you a place to ask questions if you need extra help.

Apple occasionally offers updates to iOS , iPadOS , watchOS , tvOS , and macOS as closed developer previews or public betas . While the betas contain new features, they also contain pre-release bugs that can prevent the normal use of your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, or Mac, and are not intended for everyday use on a primary device. That's why we strongly recommend staying away from developer previews unless you need them for software development, and using the public betas with caution. If you depend on your devices, wait for the final release.

How to make an archived backup of your iPhone or iPad

• How to register your device with the iOS 10.3.3 public beta
• How to enroll your iPhone or iPad in the iOS 10.3.3 public beta

How to install the iOS 10.3.2 public beta

• How to get started with the iOS 10.3.2 beta

Before you begin, make sure you back up your iPhone or iPad. While the beta process is fairly straight forward, any time you make any significant change to your device you risk problems. And with your personal data, it's always — always! — better to be safe than sorry. Even if you back up every night, you'll want to make sure it's absolutely up-to-date.

• Plug iPhone or iPad into your Mac or Windows PC.
• Launch iTunes .
• Click on the iPhone or iPad icon in the menu bar when it appears.
• Make sure backup is set to This Computer . (And enable Encrypted backup — it's worth it!)
• Click on Back Up Now . (Click on Encrypt Backup and add a password — you want the security.)
• Back up Apps , if asked.

• Press Command, to open Preferences. (Or go to iTunes in the menu bar and click on Preferences .
• Click on the Devices tab.
• Option-click on your Backup and choose Archive .

Archiving will prevent your current backup from being overwritten by an iOS 10 backup in the future, should you want to revert for any reason.

How to register your account for the iOS 10.3.2 public beta

If you've already joined an Apple public beta in the past, you shouldn't need to register again for iOS 10.3.2; simply sign in with the same Apple ID. If you've never joined a public beta before, you'll start by signing up with your Apple ID.

• Go to beta.apple.com on the iPhone or iPad you want to enroll in the beta.
• Tap on Sign up to get started. (If you've already signed up for a previous public beta, tap on Sign in and skip to our "How to enroll your device" section below.)
• Enter you Apple ID email address and password.
• Tap Sign in .
• Tap Accept to agree to the terms and conditions.

Once you're signed up and signed in, it's time to start downloading.

How to enroll your iPhone or iPad in the iOS 10.3.2 public beta

Unlike regular iOS updates, where you just tap and start downloading, Apple is using configuration profiles to validate devices for the iOS 10.2.1 public beta. Here's how to install it.

Note: If you've been on a previous iOS public beta, you may need to remove the previous beta profile before installing the iOS 10 version. You can do so by going to Settings > General > Profile , selecting the iOS Beta Software Profile, and pressing Delete Profile .

• Go to beta.apple.com , if you're not there already.
• Tap the iOS tab, if it's not highlighted already.
• Tap on Download profile .
• Tap on Install in the upper right corner.
• Enter your Passcode .
• Tap on Install , this time to consent to the beta agreement. (Read it: There are risks to any beta.)
• Tap on Install at the bottom to confirm. (Yes, you need to be really sure.)
• Tap on Restart to reboot your device.

Once your iPhone or iPad has finished rebooting, it should start to download iOS 10.3.2 automatically. From this point on, the process is the same as any other iOS update.

To install the iOS 10.3.2 beta, you'll need to visit Software Update on your iPhone or iPad.

• Launch Settings from your Home screen, tap on General , then tap on Software Update .
• Once the update appears, tap on Download and Install .

• Tap Agree to the Terms and Conditions.
• Tap Agree again to confirm.

Your iPhone or iPad will reboot to install iOS 10.3.2. There will be a couple progress bars going across the screen. Sit tight, and let everything finish.

How to get started with iOS 10.3.2 public beta

Once your iPhone or iPad reboots, it'll be running iOS 10.3.2. There's a brief bit of setup you'll need to go through, however, as the system will have changed enough that it'll need your login to complete the update.

• Tap Continue .
• Enter your Apple ID password . iCloud settings will update, so give it a minute.
• Tap Get Started .

Once that's done, you'll be on the Home screen and ready to rock iOS 10.3.2

What if I want to go back to iOS 10.3?

Note that iOS 10.3 brings with it Apple's new file system, APFS, and as such downgrading to an earlier version of the OS will be highly difficult, if not outright impossible.

What's new in iOS 10.3?

So much! We've written a bunch about the new operating system, including a detailed FAQ and sections on its new user interface, Lock screen, Messages app, and lots more.

Update July 5, 2017: Apple has released iOS 10.3.3 public beta 6 for members of the Beta Software Program.

All of the model numbers starting with MD51 correspond to the iPad 4, which isn't capable of 11 or above. If your particular one is subject to the GPS issue which 10.3.4 patches, use a computer or the Software Update function in Settings.

Is Syncing and Updating the same thing?

No, they are not the same thing. Syncing transfers data back and forth between an iPad and a computer so they remain in sync. ie the same on both devices.

Updating changes the Operating system on the iPad to a greater version. Such from iOS 10 to 11.

An iPad running iOS 10.3.3 or 10.3.4 cannot be updated beyond that no.

Dec 10, 2021 11:48 AM in response to Artist1948

Upgrading/updating that iPad any farther will never, ever be possible.

If your iPad model has been stuck on iOS 10 for all of these past years, then it is possible you own an over 9-year old, 2012 iPad 4th generation.

That iPad model cannot ever upgrade beyond iOS 10.3.3/10.3.4.

An over 9-year old, iPad 4th gen model is too old, now.

Apple ended support for all 8-10-year old iOS devices nearly 5 years, ago, in 2016.

Third party app developers abandoned and stopped supporting these 8-10-year old iOS devices nearly 3 years, ago, in 2018.

There are, virtually, NO MORE third party apps available from the iOS App Store, any longer!

Third party compatible apps for such old devices are few and far between, now, in 2021.

This includes apps for both iOS 9 AND iOS 10 devices!

AND, NO WAY to, initially, install any older, compatible, third party apps into this old iPad, any longer!

NO MORE SUPPORT! NO MORE APPS!

All 2011-2012 iPad 2, 3, 4 and 1st gen iPad Mini models are fully and completely unsupported AND obsolete!

Sorry, but this is the reality for ALL 8-10-year old AND OLDER iOS devices now. Especially now, late in 2021!

In addition, the internal, rechargeable batteries in these old iPads are, also, running on borrowed time.

Not worth the costs to replace these old internal, rechargeable batteries in these old iPads, any longer, either.

You really need to seriously consider a purchase of a new iPad model OR a much, MUCH “newer” and less expensive, refurbished or used iPad models, from better known, trusted Apple product/device retailers/resellers, some locally or from online, on the Web/Internet, capable of running the latest iPadOS versions.

There are PLENTY of less expensive, newer, older iPad models that can run the latest, current versions of iPadOS.

If you need OR ONLY able to purchase older, less expensive iPad models, look at older IPads from 2014 and later.

All of these older model iPads below, CAN run the latest releases of iPadOS 15.

2014, 9,7 inch screen iPad Air 2 models

2015, 7.9 inch screen iPad Mini 4 models

2015-2017, 12.9 inch screen iPad Pro models. ( 1st gen Pencil support )

2016, 9.7 inch screen iPad Pro models ( 1st gen Pencil support )

2017,10.5 inch screen iPad iPad Pro models ( 1st gen Pencil support )

2017, 9.7 inch screen iPad 5th gen models

2018, 9.7 inch screen iPad 6th gen models ( 1st gen Pencil support )

2019, 10.2 inch screen iPad 7th gen models ( 1st gen Pencil support )

2020, 10.2 inch screen iPad 8th gen models. ( 1st gen Pencil support )

2019, 7.9 inch screen iPad Mini 5th gen models ( 1st gen Pencil support )

Get the largest internal data storage model you can afford as NO Apple iOS device has ANY expandable storage.

I am sorry that you had to learn all of this, but this does not change any of the facts regarding these very old iOS devices.

Sorry & Best of Luck to You!

If you decide to go down the path of purchasing used, secondhand Apple devices, here is how to avoid purchasing an Apple iOS/iPadOS device with user activation lock, in the future.

If you purchase any iPad, or any Apple iOS device, for that matter, used/second hand, online, or even in-person, make sure this iPad does NOT have user activation lock and has been properly reset for sale.

A properly reset for sale iPad should initially power up to an animated, multi-language “Welcome” screen.

DO NOT take the iPad seller's word that this iPad is user activation lock free!

We have seen plenty of used iOS device purchasers get scammed.

User Activation Lock can never be bypasss, circumvented or worked around IF there is no correct previous/original user information to be able to do so.

Apple doesn't get involved with ANY user activation locked, used/second-hand sold devices, either.

So, buyer beware!

If purchasing a used device in-person, power the iPad ON

If the iPad DOES NOT display the initial animated, multi-language “Welcome” screen, then pass on purchasing this iPad.

If the iPad powers up to any other screen, then forget purchasing this iPad.

You cannot trust that the seller actually has the correct needed info to properly reset the iPad back to factory settings right then and there before the actual purchase and exchange of money for the iPad, in question.

Pass on the device!

If you are purchasing this used iPad online ask the seller to provide multiple images, either online or be sent to you via email, showing this animated, multi-language “Welcome” screen of the interested in purchasing iPad model.

Even better, ask for a short video be sent to you showing this animated, multi-language “Welcome” screen, in action and in its entirety, posted to the online ad or emailed to you.

If the online iPad seller refuses any of these requests, pass on the iPad. DO NOT buy!

Good Luck to You!
