iOS 26.4.1 Update for iPhones is Coming Soon

Random thought:

The article mentioned healthcare (medical imaging). It would be nice if - when Apple’s AI is actually good and useful and secure - if Apple had a full suite of medical and health Apps on-device to help shorten the wait times and lengthy diagnostic processes one most go through when one has to visit an American hospital. If Apple’s AI tech and health/medical apps could make the iPhone into a gen-1 version of Star Trek’s medical TriCorder device, it could remove or reduce significant pain (ie: time investment and potentially cost) that comes in navigating an emergency room visit.

I took my father to the ER earlier in the year… sitting for 9-10 hours waiting and 1/3rd of that was waiting for diagnostics to come back and then be interpreted by a doctor who was dragging from doing a 12 hour shift. If Apple's iPhone could also do TriCorder functions, it could shave many hours off the visit and possibly cut several thousand dollars off the insurance bill. That’s a technology win that I’d like to see.

I fixed it so you can actually read the version number:

26.4 broke the iCloud (CloudKit under the hood) notifications that many apps rely on to update cloud data. A pretty bad regression.

I know it isn’t affecting everyone, but for some, our notification badges on Reminders aren’t displaying. I honestly rely on that throughout the day, every day. Hope this will fix it!

It's been terrible for me. Then when I do grab my phone, the notifications just flood the banner style.

No thank you. 26.4 will likely be the last time I update until the next major iOS release.

Tomorrow is the last day to Apple open iOS alt stores in Brazil. Maybe that’s the update(?)
