iOS update to 17.7 instead of iOS18

Hi, i have an issue with iOS update. Phone has only option for iOS18, but for the security reasons i have to update it to 17.7 instead, as 18 is not confirmed as secure. Is there is any option to get 17.7 , as security already blocked my acc. for any communications.

iPhone SE, iOS 17

I'm running into the same issue. I was able to update my 15 pro max to 17.7 fine, but my 15 pro only offers 18 as an update, which is extra confusing. I am in the us.


Is your iPhone 15 Pro, by any chance, already on iOS 17.7? If it is, the Software Update screen will just display "iOS 17.7 / iOS 17 is up to date", and an option at the bottom of the screen to update to iOS 18.


That's what my iPhone is showing, now that I've updated it from the latest version of iOS 16 to the latest version of iOS 17.
