No biggie, by the time anybody can find those out of App Store to actually download, we will be well into iOS 18 cycle. 😋

I'm with you, on Friday it's very difficult for them to release anything, so for next week, what really makes us wait for the new version 17.6 is to see if it was advances of IOS 18, otherwise it will be more polishing and improved stability of IOS 17.5, Happy Weekend friends!!!
17.6 - if there is one - will be nothing more than bug fixes and polishing. Don’t expect any iOS 18 “sneak previews.
Yes, it's my appreciation!! We are too close to the release of IOS 18 developer, I don't think they will open the thunder box before the wwdc!!!

I'm never crazy about the .1 updates but you have to think 17.5.1 is coming soon. 17.5 has been absolute trainwreck so far
I’ve had zero issues with 17.5 on any of my devices. I don’t know how 17.5 is a trainwreck.
There have been several reported bugs. And I have not been able to receive or make calls now twice since updating
Wow, sorry you’re experiencing that bug. That would stink. I haven’t had any issues like that on my devices, I guess it must just impact some devices and not others. 👍🏻
I have (2) iPhone 14 pro's and nothing wrong. Have you bothered to back up your iPhone to a Mac and then do a DFU restore? There are lots of settings you could have messed up, playing around on a iPhone. Also because I have installed hundreds of iOS betas you would think I have more problems than you?

Ditto, by a X.5 updates, it is very unusual for a update to be a "trainwreck". Now iOS 18 beta 1, well that one is TBD and could be a different story lol.
Now, if you want to speculate about a 17.5.1, I'd say any day, including tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday might be fair game if this is accurate:

it sounds to me like not everyone is experiencing this. They no doubt need a 17.5.1 but I don't get the sense Apple is any hurryNow, if you want to speculate about a 17.5.1, I'd say any day, including tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday might be fair game if this is accurate:

Sounding like the resurfacing bug was partially fake news the guy made up the story. However there is still a bug there and if apple fixes it server side we won't need a 17.5.1 anytime soon
I don't agree with that.
Firstly, EU residents cannot install a third-party store if they previously deleted it due to an error in the controld parameter.
Secondly, iMessage has corrupted the sound of voice messages.
Thirdly, sometimes my alarm clock still may not ring.
At least two bugs that I have listed are quite critical. And in the end, we still don't know why some people had old photos restored, because of an error in iCloud or iOS 17.5 (we're not talking about that potential fake about restoring photos on an old device right now)
But if we compare with previous iOS 17 updates, then I agree that 17.5 is the most stable release with great autonomy and smoothness

Just out of curiosity: how do you have any “sense” of whether Apple is in a hurry or not?
Those last two bugs don’t seem like they’re that common. I hope they get fixed, but they could be due to a combo of settings or something else as well. It may be worthwhile to try a system restore from a backup. I don’t think Apple should release an update just for fixing the EUs sideloading system. It doesn’t really belong in iOS anyways, so why go out of the way to make sure it never has any bugs? Sure, maybe fix it next update when they’re fixing things the rest of the world actually cares about, but I don’t see the need to release an update just to fix the EU sideloading system which is already problematic, and not many people are likely to be using anyways. That’s at least my opinion.
It seems to me that if Apple does not fix the problem for the EU, it threatens it with a violation of DMA, since the function actually does not work correctly. With regard to my problems, I have already tried a complete reinstallation via IPSW twice and still encounter minor errors, I just send reports to Apple and do not treat the community like that dude from reddit who has now wiped all posts and comments about the resurrection of photos on a sold iPad
In any case, we don't know all of Apple's plans, as they may release 17.5.1 with fixes, or a new build 17.5 that will be available only through iTunes, as it already was with 17.4.1, or maybe we won't see anything at all on the stable releases branch in the coming weeks, since 17.6 is just around the corner. So for now, we'll just wait and not make any plans.

As we’re on the iOS 17 speculation thread, I’m gonna say we’ll be getting 17.5.1 next week with, hopefully, fixes for the alternate stores bug, and the mysterious deleted picture resurfacing bug.
And soon, this next week or maybe last week of may, we might see the first iOS 17.6 beta.
The resurfacing bug was slightly made up by that kid that posted it. I think it may resurface on your device but not a previous sold device
imo nothing apple needs to respond immeadietly too
I wonder if today or tomorrow Apple starts the 17.6 beta cycle? Figured they need a good 2 weeks to collect feedback from 17.5 RC?
Gives people a choice in three weeks what to use until a few betas after iOS 18 at WWDC is announced to furnish the first 18.0 public beta late June/early July?
