Apple releases iOS 13.5, iPadOS 13.5 and tvOS 13.4.5 for users [atualizado]

After releasing the versions Golden Master of its operating systems, the day before yesterday, Apple released today the final versions of the iOS / iPadOS 13.5 (build 17F75) and the tvOS 13.4.5 (17L562) – remembering that the watchOS 6.2.5 it had already been released. Nothing yet for macOS Catalina 10.15.5.

Along with the new systems, Apple has also released for developers the Xcode 11.5 (build 11E608c), to create apps compatible with the new systems.

iOS / iPadOS 13.5

IOS / iPadOS 13.5 has support for framework «Exposure Notification» (“Exposure Alert”) which, as the name implies, will notify users who may have contacted people infected with the new Coronavirus (COVID-19).

The technology can help health officials quickly tell someone that they may have been exposed to COVID-19. Today, the exposure notification API we created with @Google is available to help public health agencies make their COVID-19 applications effective, while protecting user privacy.

THE framework, developed by Apple in partnership with Google, has already been requested and will be adopted by more than 20 countries; no Brazil or Portugal, so far. Android is also getting an update today with the news.

In addition, the news also involves improvements in Face ID (the password panel appears quickly when we are wearing a mask) and new options for the group FaceTime feature (option to turn off the feature that zooms in when a person speaks) and an option to automatically share your health information from your Medical Record with emergency services (for the moment, in the United States only).

In addition, as we already showed (when it was still called iOS 13.4.5), 13.5 comes with the possibility to share Apple Music songs via Stories Instagram and / or Facebook.

Here’s the changelog full official:

Update May 27, 2020 at 13:15

Only today did Apple update the support page with explanatory links related to security updates for the latest versions of its operating systems – the same page in Portuguese, however, remains out of date.

Regarding iOS / iPadOS 13.5, Apple confirmed that it fixed the vulnerability in Mail which allowed attackers to attack iPhones and iPads silently.

She also fixed the problem in CoreText that caused iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watches to crash when receiving a certain string sent by iMessage.

As always, updates like these are highly recommended mainly due to such security fixes.
