Radiation issue forced France to suspend sales of the phones earlier this month

PARIS (Reuters) - French authorities said on Friday they had approved Apple's AAPL.O software update of its iPhone 12 after a row over radiation levels of the device, which led France to suspend sales of the phones earlier this month. 

Earlier Italy and other countries asked Apple (AAPL.O) to issue a software update for iPhone 12 users in the country, according to a government source.

The development came after the US company offered to make similar changes in France to end a row with regulators there over breaches of radiation exposure limits.
