iOS 17 Speculation Thread

I just installed the new iPadOS 17.2 beta! My RAM pressure seems to have gone down a bit, though it’s never gotten very high before. 👍🏻. So it seems it may be a bit more resource efficient. 👍🏻

What exactly is "our website's analytics logs" as far as factual?

Website analytics would show the computer operating system used to browse the site. Check Trasir out to see what info is publicly shown on your end. And just because MacRumors is seeing folks browse their site on 17.1.2, that doesn't mean it'll see the light of day 😉 Just that someone that works at Apple has been internally testing 17.1.2 and also went to MacRumors.com

A Twitter (sorry, X) account which has posted correct build numbers of unreleased iOS updates has posted about 17.1.2 and apparently it has a build number of 21B101. I would expect to see it tomorrow or Thursday.

I think that Apple is doing that on purpose. They’re teasing the small updates in this way.

I can’t remember when Macrumors said a x.x.x is coming and it didn’t came. They were always right.

It could just be Apple internally testing a build on the "17.1" API's as opposed to anything introduced in the "17.2" API's. Maybe it won't ever see the light of day, but considering all of the bugs recently and the number of updates, it's possible there's more looking into web analytics and concluding its release is imminent.

If it's not out by 4 that'll be interesting

Other then MacRumors speculation, there's not much going on for that. We are so close to 17.2 going public, which I think is dec 11th, it's almost a why bother. The 17. 2 RC is likely next Tuesday for anyone that can't wait.

Patch is rumored to encompass further wireless connection issues which are already included in 17.2

Don't think we'll get it on thursday if not today. Could be possible they decided not to release it with 17.2 on the horizon

Do you honestly believe that Apple works this way? That they prepared an entire release 17.1.2 and then decided “oh nevermind” because of the impending release of a 17.2 that they all knew was coming and when it was coming (unlike us, they don’t need to speculate about the release date)?

I think 17.1.2 may have been fake news

I still think it's just internal testing against 17.1 API's as opposed to new API's in 17.2

That may well be. Or it may actually exist.

But the one thing that didn’t happen was Apple’s software development team saying “oh gosh 17.2 is coming soon so we shouldn’t release this software we just worked on.”

Right! And if it does exist, and has been showing in analytics logs for a little while now, it's not an "Emergency" type update, like the Rapid Response Updates. Unless there's A/B testing or something? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

speaking for myself, my iPhone 14 Pro Max on 17.1.1 is doin just fine :cool:
