British Carrier EE’s iOS 18.2 Reveal: Merely a Coincidence?
The publication reveals that this information came from a British carrier, EE. The carrier notified its customers that a feature, “Wi-Fi calling on other supported iCloud-connected devices,” will be discontinued on 9th December. This feature allows users to make Wi-Fi calls from devices like Macs, even when their iPhone isn’t near them. MacRumors also notes that the second developer beta of iOS 18.2 includes new carrier settings for EE. This updated version removes the “Add Wi-Fi Calling for Other Devices” toggle from the Wi-Fi calling section in the Settings app.
Not sure which
mobile to buy?
This may not be a mere coincidence, as MacRumors suggests EE may have inadvertently revealed the release date for iOS 18.2 as 9th December. While the publication isn’t certain, it considers this date highly likely.
