Amazing, I’m so glad to hear!!! Thank you for posting and replying, without you mentioning that possible solution with 2FA resetting I doubt we would have solved it. You are the man!
Make sure to let the Apple techs know also.
For sure. Will call tonight to close the case and will let them know the procedure to resolve that issue
This is great news but I’m a bit confused. People with the iPhone 13 Pro say this isn’t fixed on their devices. I wonder if this is coming only to the 14 Pro or even to the regular 14.

Brad, I’m very glad to hear that! I will pass this information along to our engineering department. I very much appreciate you taking the time to respond back and let me know! — Regards, Brian Apple |
I feel like the keyboard got slightly smaller or something in ios17, as I started mistyping and mispressing all over the place after upgrading.
You are not alone. Between whatever autocorrect changes have happened and the keyboard I am making an obscene number of typos that I feel like I wasn't making a few weeks ago.
Just noticed that Home app now has “check in” settings. I’m guessing this is a new HomePod ability where you don’t have to use the “intercom” feature and it’s direct two way conversation the same way walkie talkie works on Apple Watches. I know Alexa had this feature years ago. Can’t find yet how it actually works, just found the settings for it.
Home app > Home settings > Safety & Security > Check In section is at the bottom.

I would be surprised if this is not somehow related to the Check In feature announce for Messages…
This is to do with the HomePods listening for and alerting you to smoke alarm sounds. It was introduced in a 16.x upgrade a few months ago.
You’re right! I’m sure people won’t be confused at all when iOS 17 launches and there are two Check In features that do two completely different things 😂… Oh Apple!This is to do with the HomePods listening for and alerting you to smoke alarm sounds.

For me, dictation is much much better. But you can’t do that everywhere. It’s a great way to input text but really requires an isolated office to do so.
Besides the new things that they added, they did what I told you that I wanted months ago. They made it work. Yay Apple!!
In beta 2 they haven't fixed the search bar being placed down.
However, the unwanted microphone starting up has not happened yet. With this beta, I find myself rebooting my phone at least twice a day whereas on 16 I don't remember when I had to reboot.
Now before someone tells me that I knew it was beta, let me clarify the reason I went ahead with the upgrade was due to the bug I had faced on the last update on io16. I used to continuously get the message that service has been lost to the provider "null" and I couldn't get around that. However, thankfully that is fixed on the 17

Couple of things
Safari - I have my Display set to Dark full time. Suddenly all the tabs were opening Light. Killed Safari and tried again. No joy, all Light. Guess it is reboot time. Hit the volume and power button and got a “You want to Restart” message in the lower right hand side of the screen in Landscape. Never saw that before. Tried a screen shot and it rebooted, aka restarted.
That didn’t work for fixing the Light issue. Din’t save the screen shot either. Tried Display > Light/Dark and no help. Tried the reboot again and got the normal screen. Did a hard reboot and that was no help.
Had to do couple of things and when I reopened the iPad and reopened Safari, all was now well.
No clue what the heck happened nor what triggered the fix unless it was something Apple side.
Just an FYI. Happens again I’ll file a report.

That would be really dumb if it ONLY comes to those devices. The post-processing needs work on all devices.
Home widget disappeared for me in beta 2
