Erase and reinstall from the device rather than using an ipsw file and a computer. Generally I always do that after a major update on iOS and android. Gives a smoother experience.
I guess only you can decide if it’s worth it or not. I’ll say that iOS 17 has been fairly smooth so far. Most apps seem to be working with no issues. As you know, that may change in future betas.
[Edit] Correction: It IS both ways. Sending or receiving pics will blur the pic and the warning will come up first.
BTW I read this not tested LOL

it crashed when activating, but it seems to be working. I was in the car listing to music And there was definitely a crossfade in between songs.
Just curious why anyone would care about the weather forecast for the previous day that you already experienced what the weather actually was? 🤣
Yeah, that wouldn't make sense. But what it shows were the actual conditions (High temp, low temp, wind speeds, etc...). Not something that most will want to look at but it could be handy from time to time.
A follow up weird one...
- In App Library and switch to wiggle mode.
- All apps have a grey/black "X" badge on the upper left.
- All Apple apps have no badge in the Library.
- Swipe to a Home screen with folders all is normal but you cannot swipe back to the App Library.
- Apps on a Home screen not in a folder have a grey/black "-" badge instead of an "X".

I hope they bring always on to standby for non-iPhone 14 pro phones. It’s charging anyway, battery life isn’t a concern.
Isn't the screen technology different, making it more susceptible to burn in?
Please don’t remind me that they made me delete my Dark Sky.😢😢👎👎
Yeah, the idea that AOD can't be done on older phones was because of the battery hit (needs a phone that can handle the 1 Hz refresh rate), but when it's on the charger that problem goes away. Maybe those phones that can handle AOD also do some magic jittery type stuff to help with burn-in.
One of the cool things about the Standby mode is that notifications can come through. But only when the phone's unlocked.
My iPhone 11 can't do FaceID when in landscape mode (I believe it needs the 13 or higher).
Have a new one…I think…was walking off my plane, so I switched from noise cancellation to adaptive.
Put the phone in my back pocket as I have done 1,000 times and song started breaking up and skipping…like interference between the phone and my AirPods.
Doesn’t happen in either transparency or noise cancellation mode…weird.
EDIT: thinking this may be an AirPods Pro/iOS17 bug.

Just got my first voicemail transcription and it was a spam message, it was so satisfying to see it in real time and hit block.
It’s one of the bugs on iOS 17, prob will be fixed in the next beta. Anyone who’s not on iOS 17 won’t see it, same with emoji’s
My junk space is smaller.
Not going to read into it though as this i just the first beta of many.
It's Beta and this feature is being expanded....so you will need to wait until later or final release
Couple of "They're Back!" oldies but goodies. Have seen all of these (except spell check) off and on during the 16 betas.
Badge Updates - badges don't update till you open it if you have accessed on another device (no badge updating). Seeing this across several apps.
Notifications - Apple Watch Ultra - even though I ended up repairing and Notifications set to mirror the iPhone, most notification alerts are not coming through to the watch. Messages and Mails are available but trigger no sound or haptic.
Apple Keyboard - yes the spell check has improved (YES!!! FINALLY!!), the swipe still sucks.
Seeing an issue (AT&T) with cell signal. It is doing a lot of swapping between LTE and 5G. At this location 5G is by far the stronger signal. Maybe power conservation issue?

i saw on reddit that appstore shows now the time left for an app to download. It seems it doesnt work for me.
It's not a bug. There have been other features that simply won't work until the recipient is on the same version of iOS as the sender.
How many times is this going to be asked about?
Agree that swipe still sucks. I may nuke my personal dictionary and let it start over to see if that helps. I doubt it.
First bug I’ve noticed and it’s a big one. Text messages frequently not sending, getting “sent fail“notices. Same on both iPhones running 17. Still currently looking into a fix.
