I am wondering is APPLE using RUST Software Language in their iPhones? in the past i am sure both C&C++ were used but because of memory bug problems, many programmers switched to using RUST.

Rust Software Language and Apple.

It's mostly Swift, but there's probably some old software that's still using Objective-C, and historically iOS's lower-level frameworks are written in C, C++, and even Assembly.
Linux is the only major platform I can think of that incorporates Rust.

Rust doesn't solve any new problems for Apple now that they have Swift as a very mature, production-ready language.
It's a nice and very capable language, though. If you're doing any kind of low level system programming, it's a solid choice, albeit not as elegant as Swift. Right tool for the right job, I guess.
