Apple fixed the issue of spying bug

“Apple’s spying bug gets fixed as Apple is soon introducing a new software update which will fix the problems of active Apple users.”

Apple temporarily shut down its new Group FaceTime calling feature since the users found they could spy on other people before they accept your call. Apple announced that the eavesdrop bug has been resolved from their end. However, it has been reported that this issue will be permanently solved through its upcoming software update.

Privacy plays an important part in every individual’s life and they would never compromise on giving up their privacy to any social network or even their very close friends.

Apple even stated they have fixed the Group FaceTime security bug on Apple’s servers and are still in the process of issuing a software update in order to re-enable the feature for the users till next week. Even so, Apple apologized for the inconvenience regarding the privacy issues its users have experienced. The company is looking forward for its users' support and patience while this process gets completed.

This bug allowed anyone to swipe up and add themselves to a Group FaceTime call and that seriously disturbed the privacy of users. Apple introduced this new group video feature just last year and the news related to its privacy issues have circulated at a fast rate. To prevent its misuse, Apple took action in Group FaceTime’s servers and the issue might be ending soon.

Fortunately, as soon as Apple’s engineer team became aware of the details of the bug issue, they had started working to fix the problem immediately.

Apple is very much concerned about its reputation that it has built over the years. To compensate for the bug issue, Apple gave a couple of statements in order to prove their loyalty to their happy customers. They apologized for the inconvenience that the users have faced and immediately started working to fix the bug.
