Apple Releases iOS 17.1 and iPadOS 17.1 With AirDrop Over Internet, Music Favorites Options and More

My NFC antenna has been borked. I can't add cards and I know FaceID is working because it allows me to register a face, but not add cards saying "Apple Pay is unavailable"

What iPhone model are you using? Did you try a soft reset (volume up, volume down, hold side button)?

Will be installing the update before going to bed tonight so that my phone is on the charger throughout the night, hoping I’ll wake up to all my Messages indexed and populated.

No mention of the alarm that erratically won't ring? This is now my nightmare.

My 15 Pro Max getting hot while the update… 5min after the update, no problems.

Probably not going to fix any indexing or search issues until they get the new AI done.

Imagine they break the indexing, then invest in AI to fix it 🙄

It is. On my 13 Pro before it felt good with iOS 17.
On the new 15 Pro it felt pretty bad with iOS 17.0(.3). With 17.1 it’s definitely better, also in battery saving mode.
It’s still not perfect but it’s good now.

I noticed that in power saving mode it stil lag after a while, especially when using not built in app

Hopefully the update fixes the issue with my iPad Pro where AirDrop gets 'Declined'. Will be updating it soon.

third party apps still can’t be used to scan a close up document on iPhone 15 Pro: they can’t automatically switch to the ultra wide camera, so can’t close focus!!!

worst thing it also happens when using the “scan” feature in Mac OS to use the iPhone as a portable scanner!!!

maybe I need to factory reset the iPhone?

the sound on/off animation glitch is still there.

Looks like this didn't make it to the final release. Shame.

How to Use the New Apple Pay UK Bank Account Balance Feature

In iOS 17.1 and later, iPhone users in the UK can now view banking information like account balance when using Apple Pay and viewing bank cards and...

I also don't get this for Starling Bank cards, Barclays or Capital on Tap.

Have they fixed the alarm bug which keeps playing the alarm on iPhone once you have already stopped on the Watch? I guess I will find out tomorrow morning

They did 🎉

HomePods still not showing Alarm/Timer reliably

I tried typing fast in battery saving mode and it’s still too laggy, especially after writing many line of text 🥺

That’s true the combination of battery saving mode and a lot of text causes still a lot of issues.

I experienced that this morning, as result 20 minutes late at work.

 

[Dizzy714]

Message indexing is officially fixed for me, woo hoo.

 

[highdefjunkie]

Great news!! I spot checked some of my text messages and all the links and photos that were gone are all back!!! Thank you 17.1

Tried again; it lags when you types fast, also at the beginning of the line, only with power saving mode. Bummer. Hope they fix it. Without battery saving it works fine.

Unfortunately 17.1 did not fix the Standby clock turning off at night, and it made it worse in that if you check "never" (to never let your phone turn off at night... which still doesn't work) you are forced to use "red tint" instead of the pretty colors you chose for your clock. Mine still turns off once a night. I've now disabled standby on my phone and will no longer be anxiously waiting for ANOTHER update to fix it AGAIN!!!! A third party clock works flawlessly.
