iOS 18.4 Expected in April
Apple has indicated multiple times that an update will arrive in April 2025, bringing support for more languages for Apple Intelligence. Now that iOS 18.3 was released in January earlier this year, the next major update lined up is iOS 18.4. This makes it highly likely that the April software update will indeed be iOS 18.4.
In fact, Apple’s own website, as spotted by 9to5Mac, now states that the additional Apple Intelligence features and language support are expected in early April.
Since it is already March 24, the update could be just a few weeks away.
What’s Coming with iOS 18.4?
iOS 18.4 is expected to introduce several upgrades, including new emojis. Alongside this, Apple is bringing the ability to pause app downloads and introducing Ambient Music. This feature will allow users to play background music directly from the Control Centre, with themes like Well-being, Chill, Productivity, and Sleep.
A more significant feature arriving with iOS 18.4 is Priority Notifications, which ensures the most important notifications appear first in a dedicated section. This will reduce the chances of missing crucial updates.
Additionally, the ability to pause app downloads directly from the App Store is also coming.
