When Apple says something is “available now,” it doesn’t play around. iOS 12.2 is available on all compatible devices now, and it includes the new News+ service (along with some other stuff).
The company announced its long-rumored News+ service today, which offer access to over 300 magazines and several newspapers for just $9.99 a month for the entire family. News+ is the only service that was announced and is also available today—everything else (Apple Card, TV+, etc.) is coming later this year.
That’s arguably not even the most interesting part of the 12.2 changelog, however—that award goes to the inclusion of “AirPower” as a new supported device. It’s been rumored that we should expect to see AirPower hit the scene very soon and this update seems to all but confirm that to be true.
Otherwise, there are four new Animoji (boar, giraffe, owl, and shark), support for HomeKit TVs, Control Center updates, Wallet fixes, and more. Here’s the full changelog, as spotted by AppleInsider:
