Belgium urges Apple to update iPhone 12 software across EU

Belgium’s state secretary for digitalisation said on Friday he had asked Apple to upgrade the iPhone 12 software across EU countries, adding however that based on a preliminary review by the Belgian regulator the handset presents no danger to users.

Mathieu Michel said in a statement that while a review of the phone by the IBPT regulator was still underway, the first results were “reassuring” and there was no need for a recall of the phone in Belgium.
