Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile earlier this week stated they weren’t blocking the VPN-like function, however T-Mobile claimed to have recognized that iOS 15.2 toggled it off by default.

Now Apple says that’s not the case. After releasing an up to date beta of iOS 15.3 that clarifies the language in iCloud settings, Apple issued a statement to 9to5Mac saying that iOS 15.2 wasn’t the issue. “No changes were made to iCloud Private Relay in iOS 15.2 that would have toggled the feature off,” the assertion reads. “Users are encouraged to check their Settings to see if Private Relay is enabled on their device or for a specific network.”

T-Mobile has additionally adopted up with 9to5Mac to say that that iOS 15.2 didn’t toggle the function off in spite of everything. “Apple doesn’t change customers’ settings when they update to iOS 15.2,” the service says in an announcement. “Customers may see an error message if they previously toggled iCloud Private Relay or Limit IP Address Tracking off in their Cellular Data Options Settings.”

It’s nonetheless not totally clear what brought about all of this confusion, however the carriers do say they’re not blocking iCloud Private Relay (aside from some T-Mobile plans that embody content material filtering companies), so it’s value double-checking your mobile settings to verify all the things’s the best way it ought to be. Once the general public model of iOS 15.3 is out, the language in settings gained’t outright let you know that your cell plan doesn’t help the function.
