Yeah, it's nuts!
I have gigabit service through Comcast so my WiFi is still a bit faster than 5G, but it's wild that 5G is now competitive with it.
It's comforting to know that if Comcast goes down I can get online through my phone's hotspot and it'll be nearly as fast (though I only get 50GB of hotspot data, so no watching 4K video all day...)
My iPhone 15 Pro Max screen became completely unresponsive to touch input and I had to do a DFU restore. I would avoid this update until it can be patched.
No problem installing on apple 14 Pro Max. Fixed issues……but I love the one about snow not appearing correctly on where did screen. That’s gotta be a new one

Final update. As part of trying to fix it they had me try to "update" it to 17.1, which bricked it. So now waiting on a replacement to ship (because there are no Apple stores near me).
Whoever is in charge of writing their scripts lately should (probably already has been) be a presidential speech writer or something. The way they manage to spin everything these days is very impressive. Complete ********, but impressively delivered.
There isn’t even an article on iPadOS 17.1.1. It claims to fix one bug: the weather widget not showing snow. I have to shutdown my iPad for ten minutes for a system update for this?
Way past time Apple moved all the built-in apps to the store. All of them. On Windows, Microsoft even has the Store app as an app that’s updated through the Store. Maybe not that far but why are we having system updates to fix widget issues?

Nothing for iOS 16 or 15.
I laugh, but I also feel your pain as someone who refused to update an iPad past 15 because it ruins the TV app.
Well it bricked my 15 Pro Max and after data recovery it says Apple Pay is no longer available due to Apple Parts and repair history.
I'm not seeing the iOS 17.1.1 update on my Mac when I connect my iPhone to my Mac. (I always update my iPhone with my Mac. I never use OTA updates.) Is anyone else having this problem?

I thought they were going to do this at one point many years ago. That and smaller updates. Alpha updates maybe? I don't remember what they're called. Maybe delta.
