Following the "It's Show Time" special event where it unveiled a plethora of new services, Apple released today the highly anticipated iOS 12.2 software update for iPhone and iPad devices.
 
After more than two months in development, the iOS 12.2 (build number 16E227) software update is here to add yet another layer of new features, improvements, as well as bug and security fixes to Apple's latest and greatest iOS 12 mobile operating system for supported iPhone and iPad devices.
 
Highlights of the iOS 12.2 release includes support the brand-new Apple News+ subscription service for digital magazines and daily newspapers, integrated into the Apple News app, which is now also available in Canada. Apple News+ is a paid service that costs $9.99 USD or $12.99 CAD.
 
iOS 12.2 also introduces support for the 2nd generation AirPods wireless headphones announced by Apple last week, support for configuring downtime for each day of the week with different schedules in the Screen Time feature, along with a new toggle to more easily enable or disable app limits.
 
Serveral AirPlay improvements are also present in iOS 12.2, such as dedicated TV controls in Control Center and Lock Screen, multitasking for videos, as well as grouping of destinations by content type so you can more easily find your favorite devices to send content to via AirPlay.
