WatchOS 9.3, MacOS Ventura 13.2, and iOS 16.3 and 16.4 for iPad Releases by Apple

Apple recently announced significant updates for a number of iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Watch Series devices. New watch faces, wallpapers, and other items are among the many new features that are included in the new versions. As of right now, Apple is OTA-updating watchOS 9.3, macOS Ventura 13.2, iOS 16.3, and iPadOS 16.4. For its entire product line, Apple has completed new software updates. The upgrades, which are distributed as x.3 iterations separate from macOS Ventura 13.2, provide a few additional features to each product line, as the screenshots below demonstrate. Though Apple also implemented handoff functionality with the second-generation HomePod, it is debatable that the usage of hardware security keys is iOS 16.3 and iPadOS 16.3's most significant development. Apple has also included more pre-installed wallpapers and changed the functionality of the satellite emergency call system to reduce unintentional emergency calls.

The numerous bug fixes and other improvements that account for the majority of the update's 299 MB file size are unfortunately not listed by Apple. As an alternative, the business directs visitors to a website that lists all the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that watchOS 9.3 fixes. Similar to iOS 16.3 and iPadOS 16.3, macOS Ventura 13.2 offers Advanced Data Protection for iCloud and Security Keys for Apple ID. As a point of reference, the update from this month enables pairing of your Apple ID with real-world security devices like the YubiKey. Additionally, the macOS Ventura 13.2 end-to-end encryption encrypts 23 different types of data, which should guard against the compromising of backups, notes, images, and other media even if someone acquires access to Apple's servers. Every update ought to be accessible for OTA file download. You can manually start the download of an update if Apple has not yet prompted you to do so by going to "Software Update" in the main System Settings menu.
