Apple Seeds First Betas of iOS 17.1 and iPadOS 17.1 to Developers

[MacRumors]

Apple today released the first betas of iOS 17.1 and iPadOS 17.1 to developers for testing purposes, with the beta coming one day after the launch of the iOS 17 operating system.

Registered developers are able to opt into the betas by opening up the Settings app, going to the Software Update section, tapping on the "Beta Updates" option, and toggling on the ‌iOS 17 or iPadOS 17‌ Developer Beta. An Apple ID associated with a developer account is required to download and install the beta.

We don't yet know what's included in the iOS 17.1 beta, but there are several iOS 17 features that were not included in the initial release, such as the Journal app, collaborative Apple Music playlists, an option to continue AirDrop transfers over the internet, the ability to use stickers as a Tapback reaction in the Messages app, an arrow for catching up on missed conversations in the Messages app, a favorite songs playlist in Apple Music, and a few other minor changes.

Apple has said that all of these features will be coming in a future update, so we are likely to see some of these changes in the iOS 17.1 update.

We'll update this post when we find out what's new in the beta.

I’m not particularly impressed by the amount of issues with 17.0 so far, I think I might jump on this. I used to always run the .1 betas on new devices, I mean, it’s what Apple has been running on them for a while now I expect?

Anyone else seeing a regression with iOS 17.0.x as it no longer allows me to move Safari tabs above or below the visible tab window where the other tabs would scroll when holding the tab near the top or bottom edge? More than a few tabs need to be open to see this behavior. This problem only occurs with iOS 17.0.x and not iPadOS. Don’t know if this issue exists with iOS 17.1 Beta?

I do, until March 2024 when the DMA goes into full effect.
