Apple Updates All of Its Operating Systems To Fix App-crashing Bug (engadget.com)

It took a few days, but Apple already has a fix out for a bug that caused crashes on each of its platforms. From a report: The company pushed new versions of iOS, macOS and watchOS to fix the issue, which was caused when someone pasted in or received a single Indian-language character in select communications apps -- most notably in iMessages, Safari and the app store. Using a specific character in the Telugu language native to India was enough to crash a variety of chat apps, including iMessage, WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook Messenger, Gmail and Outlook, though Telegram and Skype were seemingly immune.

Thanks Apple

I applaud your swift response patching this issue. Downloading the update now, since I don't have an Android and actually get updates for my 3+ year old phone.

Thanks, but

What about the 9753 other less publicized yet very annoying iOS bugs?
