Apple today released the official version of iOS/iPadOS 14.5.1, macOS Big Sur 11.3.1 and watchOS 7.4.1. This update has passed a week since the official release of iOS 14.5.
iOS/iPadOS 14.5.1:
Apple said that iOS 14.5.1 includes bug fixes and provides important security updates, and it is recommended for all users to install it. According to Apple’s release notes, this update fixes a bug in App Tracking Transparency that may prevent some users from receiving prompts from the app.
