iOS 17 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[Brad7]

Don’t try to activate cross fade. It’s gonna crash the music app settings

Yup. Just found this out. 😅

I haven’t found a way to, can’t seem to get minis to update either even though it’s turned on in the home app

My mini updated fine and didn’t have any profile installed. HomePods still had 16 beta installed so removed and still no luck doesn’t show up in beta updates in home app like the mini did. Someone on redit said they upgraded the OGs fine

There’s a blur applied behind the clock and icons on either side of the dynamic island.

It’s annoying.

It even does that on my iPad Pro!

 

[Camperniki]

give me a clue please as to how. Without lightening my wallet by $99

You can download the iOS 16.6 beta profile, restart, wait a few minutes, and it can show up. You gotta hit where it says beta updates and then select 17. It’s what happened to me as a non dev

Yeh can’t get mine off 16.6

I know it’s off topic but does anyone know if the OG HomePod will take 17?

Yes.

 

[dodger246]

Yes.

How Do you get them to update to 17?

Password section is now populated with the website favicons. Looks nice.

What a brilliant feature. Everyone is going to love this.

The beta just showed up for me about an hour ago, just updated 2 OGs to 17. I get the 17 beta profile through AppleSeed.

I wish you could use it when the phone is laying flat. I have a flat charging pad i use at night but would like the standby mode feature.

How would you see it?

It’s annoying.

The blur when Face ID is activated?

Otherwise not seeing this. iPhone 14 Pro

You're over excited! 🤩

 

[Trezona]

Yup. Just found this out. 😅

Me too.

I pulled the trigger. So far so good. All apps are working and I haven’t run into any bugs yet. We’ll see how the rest of the night progresses…

Ohhhh, I think it's different compared to what I posted yesterday. This one targets the "Verification Code Pop Up Banner" specifically. iOS 17 got me all excited! I can delete the post if you would like.

I know it’s off topic but does anyone know if the OG HomePod will take 17?

I haven't even figured out how to install 17 on the HomePod minis. The beta toggle in the Home settings doesn't seem to do anything, and the 16 profile I have doesn't work either.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see they have posted a HomePod 17 profile finally

 

[maugustine]

Has anyone tried sending an iMessage either during a phone call or shortly afterwards? For a short while after I hang up my Messages app reverts to sending text messages. I use Xfinity Mobile which I believe uses Verizon towers. I will send a Feedback.

Love how fine you can get the type face on the lock screen. Plays off nicely with the bold. 😍

 

[dk001]

Well this is interesting ...

iPhone > Watch > General > Software Update > WatchOS 10
Watch and iPhone both have been stuck for the last 10 minutes "Checking for Update..."

5 minutes later...

Watch says Unable to Check for Update - not connected to the internet even though phone and watch both say I am.
Now my phone says the same; Unable to check ....not connected to the Internet.
Even though I am.... interesting.

Reboot both. Check
Verify internet and data. Check
Try Again. Check
tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ... tic ...

Same issue.
Wow.

I've set it to the thickest possible. Loved it already on the Unity face, so happy they implemented that for all wallpapers now.

I had that for a while last night and then it suddenly just punched through. I think the CDNs are hammered.

Is the blue outline new on the text magnifier?

Definitely feels bigger so makes it’s easier/smoother to use.

 

[adrianlondon]

No need! It's much more useful than my post telling you that you'd posted before, and now this one telling you that posting before is perfectly ok 😆

Just went on the Appleseed website, logged in pressed download top right and it let me download the beta profile
