    Does iOS still actively search for OS updates if automatic updates are turned off?

    I'm on iOS 14.4. "Download iOS updates" (Settings > General > Software Update > Automatic Updates) is deactivated (possible since iOS 13.6). There's still no red badge on the Settings app for iOS 14.4.1, which was released about 2 weeks ago, so it seems like iOS actually stops actively searching...

    IOS data recovery tools? Hot or Not?

    In the process of factory resetting a couple of iPhones to sell, i came across a number of tools claiming to be able to recover deleted data from iPhones. Is this actually possible? Some of them are quite expensive, so i presume they must offer something. As i have had everything from credit...

    Possible to see iOS charging wattage info?

    Is it possible for iPhones/iPads to report the wattage they're receiving from a charging brick + cable combination? macOS reports this info in the System Information app. Is there anything similar for iOS? It's doubly important on iOS because there's vastly more charger<>cable combos out there.
