I am running 17.5.1 and have no bugs. Are you sure it is iOS vs particular apps?
at this point im just waiting for WWDC for the disappointment... I mean the announcement
It seems to me that next week there are only 10 days left for the WWDC and if they release IOS 18 after the presentation, it is likely that they will release IOS 17.5.2, so the IOS 17 cycle is closed leaving it only to polish those errors that can be detected, so all the development will focus on IOS 18 since they have to have it quite polished for its implementation in September. Well, it's my impression, so we'll see it.
iOS 17.x should progress thru Sept. Considering the various DMA changes in the EU and other regions its very much a stay on top of it for Apple, until IOS 18 is released publicly, even then you have people wanting to remain on 17.x for awhile using patches for the next 2 years.It seems to me that next week there are only 10 days left for the WWDC and if they release IOS 18 after the presentation, it is likely that they will release IOS 17.5.2, so the IOS 17 cycle is closed leaving it only to polish those errors that can be detected, so all the development will focus on IOS 18 since they have to have it quite polished for its implementation in September.

I agree with this. For those of us in beta world, i0S 17 is drawing to a close. However, for the 99% of other iOS users, iOS is only 75% through its lifecycle. There won’t be any significant features added (if any). Still, it will continue to be developed until iOS 18 is released publicly (and even after that, for bugs and security updates).
I guess if we see the first 17.6 beta next week, that will then put it on a week on, week off cycle with iOS 18 betas being released on the off weeks.
And I think that was the case last year too.
Quite possibly, especially if the engineers need the rest of the week to prep for the WWDC sessions (or continue taping them).So...is today the day for something new?
Couldn’t be less interested in 17.6, 17.7, 17.8… when iOS 18 beta 1 will be rocking my device in a matter of days.
17.5 for performance, battery and stability has been rock solid on my iP14P.

I will need to wait see what banking apps work, iOS 17 was the best so far to work from B1
Yeah same, hoping it’s a similar show down, but the AI integration to the software and frame work “might” be a big change and cause problems for ios17 SDK software until release.
Is a guess if things go pear shaped for apps.
I wish I had that discipline lol. I jump right in as soon as it's available. I've been burned in the past with some banking apps and streaming apps not working properly. But I would just have to go web for a bit so it wasn't a huge deal.
Let’s hope that squared notifications will be fixed in beta 1! 🤣😭
This bug comes from iOS 16 right? I’v never experienced it, but it would be funny if it’s still present on iOS 18
Yes it’s worse in 17.5, it went away completely for a few months but is back again. Maybe the notifications will be square in iOS 18 so it fixes itself.

Oh don’t worry. I’ll post this again when someone creates the thread
Hate to break it to you but the iOS 18 Speculation thread is up and running and has been for several months.
