With iOS 18, the iPhone 16 will be able to be restored wirelessly using another iPhone or iPad. According to 9to5Mac, with the new feature, it will be possible to restore your iPhone 16 wirelessly.
According to simulations conducted by 9to5Mac, when an iPhone 16 enters Recovery Mode for some reason, users can initiate a software restore by placing the device next to another iPhone or iPad. In the process, the device next to it downloads the latest version of iOS, transfers it to the problematic device, and performs the restore.
This innovative restore method is only available for iPhone 16 series devices, but any device with iOS 18 can start the process. Previously, it was possible to restore devices like Apple Watch or Apple TV wirelessly using an iPhone. Now, this similar feature has come to the iPhone 16.
iOS 18 is available now and the iPhone 16 series will be released this Friday.
This feature, which comes with the new iOS 18, allows users to restore their devices more quickly and easily. The recovery process can be done using just an iPhone or iPad, without the need for a computer. This provides great convenience, especially when traveling or when there is no access to a computer.
The restore process becomes much simpler with the iPhone 16
This feature once again shows how much wireless recovery technology has evolved. It is known that Apple is constantly developing such innovations to improve the user experience. Especially in the case of an iPhone device crashing, users were previously dependent on cables and computers. However, with the iPhone 16, this situation is changing and the process is much simpler.
