Apple delivered
iOS 18 on Monday, and now that the rollout has been in progress for over 48 hours, a really frightful bug has tragically surfaced. It's influencing the Messages application and must be set off by an unmistakable circumstance.
To be specific, everything begins with somebody sharing a watch face with you from their
Apple Watch in an iMessage string. In the event that you are on
iOS 18 and get such a common watch face message, it's vital that you don't answer to it.
Assuming you answer in a string explicitly to that message sharing the watch face, Messages will then, at that point, over and over crash when you attempt to start the discussion being referred to.
