Apple's decision to temporarily withdraw the iPadOS 18 update for specific models is a prudent move in response to the reports of M4 iPad Pro devices becoming unresponsive after the update. This comes in the wake of multiple users reporting that their iPads stopped working following the update to the latest operating system.
Apple has now temporarily suspended the iPadOS 18 update for affected iPad models. The Cupertino-giant has not officially addressed the issue; however, the update for iPadOS 18 is no longer available for the new iPad Pro model.
The acknowledgment of the issue in an internal memo highlights the company's commitment to user safety and device functionality. By working on a solution, Apple aims to ensure that users can enjoy the new features of iPadOS 18 without encountering significant problems. Keeping users informed and addressing these issues promptly is crucial for maintaining trust in their products.
The situation reported by the iPad Pro user on Reddit highlights the severity of the issue with the iPadOS 18 update, especially given that the device has become completely unresponsive or "bricked." It's frustrating for users, particularly those with AppleCare, to face delays in receiving a replacement due to the need for engineering evaluation.
This kind of feedback emphasizes the importance of thorough testing before rolling out major updates to prevent disruptions for users who rely on their devices for daily tasks. Apple’s response to these concerns will be crucial in maintaining customer trust and satisfaction.
