Didn’t you get the bulletin? There’s a new reason every day as to why Apple is doomed. Frankly it’s amazing that the company is still alive, kicking and hanging on by the skin of its teeth.
I’d do many, many bad things to have Apple’s woes
This is not the first GM2 seed of a IOS build but it is not the most common thing. The flaw must have been small but big to trigger this last minute push. So I hope they patched what ever it was.
I will say 11.1 has made my device usable again. I am not going to say it zooms like 10.3.3 but I mean lets face it we are comparing the last installment of a generation to the new. That never happens in apple land.
So 11.2 I expect the final animation fixes and metal 2 fixes etc. I also expect .2 to have some features like apple cash and maybe messages support.
I am wondering if that feature went off to die though. I mean it is gone no word nothing not even a beta test poof. I have to wonder did they find a flaw in the key exchange handshake that would allow say the FBI or NSA to capture a key in flight. There has to be a security reason it is delayed. The overall concept is nothing new.

Neither this build nor the previous one is called a GM seed on Apple's end.
And we are getting sick of people like you defending them when iOS 11 release is an absolute nightmare for everything it's installed on.
So does anyone have an issue when launching the music app that the screen is black before the app appears? I didn't have the problem on 11.0.3 or betas 1-3, it started with 4 and continued on 5, even with a fresh install, no backup restored. I am using an iPhone 8, and just added a Watch 3 on 4.1.
Apparently the Calculator app is broken on this release. Just seen EverythingApplePro's video. That's embarrassing.
don't underestimate the adult population, i've seen many females in their 30's using that stupid "fish face" as their profile picture
Happening to me too on my 7+. Not sure what the problem is. Help anybody?

Apple today seeded the fifth beta of an upcoming iOS 11.1 update to developers, a few days after releasing the fourth iOS 11.1 beta and over a month after releasing the iOS 11 update to the public.
Registered developers can download the fifth iOS 11.1 beta from Apple's Developer Center or over-the-air once the proper configuration profile has been installed from the Developer Center.
iOS 11.1 introduces hundreds of new Unicode 10 emoji like crazy face, pie, pretzel, t-rex, vampire, exploding head, face vomiting, shushing face, love you gesture, brain, scarf, zebra, giraffe, fortune cookie, pie, hedgehog, and more.
Several emoji also feature some small design changes in iOS 11.1, including the dolphin, octopus, bee, snail, and whale characters, among others. The new designs are more detailed and realistic than existing designs.
The update also introduces a fix for a Reachability bug that's been present since the release of iOS 11 and it brings back the 3D Touch App Switcher gesture that has been missing from iOS 11 since its release. With the return of the gesture, iPhone users can once again 3D Touch at the left edge of the display to bring up the multitasking App Switcher interface.
A few other small features are included in the iOS 11.1 beta. The built-in keyboard in iOS 11.1 now offers up multiple emoji symbols when using an emoji-related word, there's an updated camera icon under Restrictions, a new animation when tapping the status bar to scroll upwards, and a faster unlock animation.
As for security fixes, iOS 11.1 addresses a serious vulnerability in the WPA2 Wi-Fi standard that protects many modern Wi-Fi networks. Using a key reinstallation attack or "KRACK," attackers can exploit weaknesses in the WPA2 protocol to decrypt network traffic to sniff out sensitive information.
Though not in the developer/public beta right now, the iOS 11.1 update could introduce the Apple Pay Cash feature, which Apple employees are currently testing in a special version of the beta.
iOS 11 marks a major update to the operating system with systemwide design tweaks, a new Lock screen experience, a revamped Control Center, ARKit, new app features, and an entirely new interface for the iPad that includes a Dock, Drag and Drop support, and a redesigned App Switcher for better than ever multitasking.
Update: Apple has also released a new beta of iOS 11.1 for public beta testers.

Same here with iPhone 6 and iPad Air. Downloaded three times, both devices reboot without installing, update still shows up.
