Apple releases iOS 11.2.5 with HomePod support, minor macOS, tvOS, and watchOS updates

Updating your Mac device to the latest macOS, OS X version is simple. "And even then, sometimes it isn't really worth it, though maybe for security stuff".

Together with last week's update, this means the last three major revisions of macOS are not protected from the processor bugs. Fortunately Apple has brought Sierra and El Capitan into the fix fold.

Earlier this morning Apple released iOS 11.2.5, along with watchOS 4.2.2 and tvOS 11.2.5 for download, and now macOS High Sierra 10.13.3 is out as well.

Obviously, it's recommended that you install these updates as soon as possible.
