Apple apologizes for Facetime bug

2826

Recently a worrying bug has been discovered in the application FaceTime. This problem in the application of Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), called into question the privacy of all users when they started a video group call.

A few days later, the company has already come to admit this problem and also to apologize to its users. This statement was recently reported by the agency CNBC. Now, Apple already has a solution to this serious error in version 12.1.4 of iOS that will be distributed as of this week.

Thereafter, any user of iPhone you can use group calls again via FaceTime. This is clear, if their confidence is promptly restored with this patch update. For now, the update is not yet available to consumers (not even those who are part of Apple's beta testing program), but the company is testing the new version on an urgent basis to make this fix available later this week.

In the statement issued by Apple you can read that the bug in Facetime is already fixed on the side of the servers. This means that technology engineers have already identified the source of the problem and, above all, have already eliminated it.

There is no date yet for when iOS12.1.4 with the FaceTime patch will be available, but the urgency with which the subject is handled at Apple would not be strange if it were made available in the next few days.
