I’ve turned off automatic updates on my Mac to ensure I don’t run into the same bullshit with the automatic iOS 26 update on the phone and I suggest you do the same.

Keep the security updates toggle on, though.

First time I’ve had to take such action in about two decades of owning a Mac.

🤷‍♂️

@aral A short term fix for the phone is to turn off automatic updates and turn on iOS 18 beta updates.

@aral I updated my iPhone because security updates are not delivered to supported devices, sorry

@RosaCtrl Wow. That’s some dark pattern right there.

@aral it’s apparently standard practice from several years now, but surely it helps them with this mess!
