Well, the beta has its weight, but I have not observed anything striking, it seems that something in the Podcast app and little else, so much weight not to see anything striking, the truth is that they also released Page, Numbers and Keynote, there are some changes, I hope that some of you "brujulee" on IOS 17.5 and see new things and tell us about them.;):guay:

With the size of the update, I’m wondering what new things will surface with 17.5. I think some people have already made some videos pointing out some new changes. 👍🏻

When installing a beta over a release-version, you are always getting the full OTA-image. And around 6 to 6.5 Gigs (depending on the device) is the normal size of a full OTA-Image since iOS 17.0 beta 1.
So the size does not hint at the ammount of changes 😂

The notes are almost always MIA for some time, especially in a beta 1.
Did you really expect anything more from an X.5 iOS version?

Still very little as far as SDK notes after they showed up today.

Core Motion​

New Features​

  • To respect users’ privacy, apps calling CMAltimeter’s startRelativeAltitudeUpdatesToQueue and stopRelativeAltitudeUpdates are now required to include the NSMotionUsageDescription string in their plist in order to receive data.
    Apps built with SDKs prior to iOS 17.5 and watchOS 10.5 without the NSMotionUsageDescription string in their plists will not receive data.
    Apps built with iOS 17.5 and watchOS 10.5 or later will crash if they do not have the NSMotionUsageDescriptionstring in their plist as described in CMAltimeter. (125573971)

I think that IOS 17.x is already fully developed, and with these betas what they are doing is polishing, but from my point of view little we will see now, being WWDC just around the corner to present IOS 18, that there if I think there will be a big jump, at least that's what I hope.

Speaking of that big jump.

What I find disturbing is that people associate the worst forms of AI as what Apple will utilize. AI is suppose to be seamless, operating like macros in the background in some instances with apps/applications with results achieved that just involve a few less steps then what you are doing now. The only viable alternative is digital assistants that only appear when you call upon them for fact-finding and other forms of data representation.

Obviously the goal with a mobile OS is to make the iPhone for example more of a useful handsfree tool, without it over presenting what you are looking for because of the smaller display with a high degree of accuracy so that it is a reliable information source/tool to utilize. Thats where I think we are headed not the chatbot interfaces or generative fake creative works. :)
