iOS 10 wasn't that far off and these days is often seen as some example of great software.Wow, eight updates since IOS 11 release, so much for "it just works"
Looking forward to IOS 11.3.3 when they *might* have most of the bugs resolved
Got a tip for us?

Beta profile puts you on the beta update channel. This release is a public release... remove your profile if you want it.
Funny - but man, what a community. First we complain about bugs, then we complain about bug fixes.
Just out of curiosity - what exact issues with 11.2 are YOU yourself having. ? Could you be specific.
Thanks!
Good plan then you can go back if you need to before Apple stops allowing it.
That's the security document, not changelog.
That was just the security document he posted.
Funny how you FINALLY didn't mention it and someone asks for it! lol
Yes and Yes
Nothing of consequence really, more going by what various people have brought up in different threads in relation to iOS 11.2.
One of the reasons I have been reluctant to have HomeKit locks in my home. I just don't trust that it will work in the middle of the night or when we are away on a trip. I have some HomeKit units (lights, thermostat, etc.) but locks are a no no in my house. I will not compromise the safety of my family for the slight inconvenience of using a key or having it as a "cool factor" from people that are not aware of the technology. I'm gonna stick to using keys to unlock my doors for now.
Installed 11.2.1 on my iPhone 7. I can't see any immediate difference compared to 11.2.
Homekit Invitations still throw an error ("AppleID not registered with iCloud" even when they are), but I'm not at home and my Apple TV/other devices are not yet updated.

We were only about a couple off in a similar timeframe last year with iOS 10, and that seems to have turned out just fine with many people seeing iOS 10 as an example of a great version of iOS.
Some of the posts in this thread are absolutely comical.
try snapping a pict and texting that pict without the phone locking up. happens all the damn time!! so annoying.
I hope that this update fixes the haptic/click bug while swiping Notification Center up (and with Reach-ability) on the X. I've not had the chance to install it yet.
At least on the IOS side we get updates
And with each new update I'm hoping my iPhone 6s will be as breezy as it used to be on 9.3.5, only to be let down.

Only though iOS 10 was not a great version of iOS. It was an eyesore and a UI circus.
I agree.
I’m not in the least bit excited about Apple Pay Cash, I barely even use Apple Pay. However, judging an updates significance purely based on what I want/like/desire fails to grasp the bigger picture imo.
Equally, as you say, lots of underwhelming x.y updates historically.
Yes, ever since I updated to iOS 11.2, my GPS functionality no longer works. I updated to iOS 11.2.1 and it still does not work. Search the internet, and you find lots of people with iPhone 6 that have had this problem since the rollout of iOS 11, I was lucky in that it still worked for me on iOS 11 and 11.1, but 11.2 killed it for me.
Famous last words perhaps?
One day,...
and that is 40+ years of writing software talking.
And their won't be. Running a beta you accept that there will be issues and unfixed bugs. This is why you agree not to run it on your main device and should be aware that information on that device may be vulnerable.
If you aren't accepting of these things then delete the beta profile from your phone.
As many issues get covered in the forums here about all kinds of things, even rathe inconsequential ones, this one doesn't really seem to have much coverage, which would be somewhat surprising for an issue as bad as that if it was even somewhat widespread.
Yep, you have given your life to Google. Enjoy all that extra advertising that is coming your way.
How else does Google get all its money? Data on you, me and everyone. IMHO Google Home is a great way of sucking your life out of your home and into the Google machine.
I never ever have any of these devices in my home so I don't have an pro Apple axe to grind. Echo is just as bad IMHO.
