Even if you don’t plan on upgrading to a new Apple phone, you've been hit with a notification for iOS 13 -- the mobile operating system developed and used exclusively by Apple Inc. for its hardware
The update comes in the wake of scrutiny faced by Apple over the iPhone maker's software
Apple quickly addressed the claim saying, in part, that Google created "false impression of 'mass exploitation' to 'monitor the private activities of entire populations in real-time,' stoking fear among all iPhone users that their devices had been compromised."
