  • Setting a profile color might not be reflected in the Start Page background. (109742827)
  • When creating a new Safari Profile, extensions might be unexpectedly turned on or off. (109796433)
    Workaround: Manage which extensions are on and off in that profile via Safari Settings.
  • Separate Safari profiles might incorrectly display history results in the search UI from other profiles. (109798974)

Screen Time​

Known Issues​

  • Visiting Screen Time > Tapping “See All Activity” > Opening an app, website, or category from the “Most Used” list might lead to a ~25s hang before the usage report for the app, website, or category appears. (109490608)

  • Users have access to the new Product.SubscriptionInfo.Status.all sequence to get the status for each of your app’s subscription groups. One can use the new subscriptionStatusproperty on the latest Transaction value for a subscription to access the full status information. (102064614)
  • StoreKit 2 now provides a collection of UI components to help merchandise in-app purchases. Use ProductView, StoreViewand SubscriptionStoreView to add in-app purchases to an app with just a few lines of code. (102066107)
  • Users can access in-app purchase product metadata and entitlement information from a SwiftUI view using new view modifier APIs in StoreKit. Declare a view as dependent on a single product or collection of products using storeProductTask(for:priority:action:) or storeProductsTask(for:priority:action:) respectively. Declare a view as dependent on the current entitlement for a product using currentEntitlementTask(for:priority:action:). Declare a view as dependent on the status of a subscription group with subscriptionStatusTask(for:priority:action:). All of the modifiers will start a task to load the data before the view appears, and provide your action with the state of the task as it progresses and whenever the data changes. (102397222)
  • User have access to the new groupLevel property of Product.SubscriptionInfo to understand the level of service of a subscription plan. (103885148)
  • Users have access to the new reason, and storefront properties on Transaction to understand the reason why the transaction was created, and which storefront it is for. The new renewalDateproperty on RenewalInfo to understand if and when a subscription will renew next. (104246730)
  • Users have access to new groupDisplayName property of Product.SubscriptionInfo to get the localized display name of a subscription plan’s group. (105689964)

Known Issues​

  • When testing in the sandbox environment, the groupDisplayNameproperty on Product.SubscriptionInfo might return an empty string if the localization in the current storefront is not in an approved state. When using the SubscriptionStoreViewwithout providing a marketing content view, the automatic view may show the name of the app instead of the subscription group’s display name. (107206601)
    Workaround: Use StoreKit Testing in Xcode instead of sandbox to test this functionality.

Swift​

New Features​

  • Properties of @observable and @Model types currently always require default values or optionality. (109441094)

Swift Charts​

New Features​

  • Enable scrolling in a chart using view modifier chartScrollableAxes(_:). (70444254)
  • Use chartXSelection, chartYSelection and chartAngleSelection to enable selection on a chart. If needed, use chartGesture to override the default gesture for selection. (79083764)
  • Swift Charts now supports creating pie charts and donut charts using the new SectorMark API. (102309263)
  • Pass an AnnotationOverflowResolution to the annotationmodifier to specify how to align an annotation when it would otherwise overflow the bounds of the chart or the plot. (106009062)

Known Issues​

  • Scrolling charts may behave unexpectedly on right-to-left languages. (109129343)
  • chartXSelection may produce unexpected results on right-to-left languages. (109129439)
  • The use of chartScrollPosition(x:) or chartScrollPosition(y:) on a Date binding will lead to a runtime crash. (109287449)
    Workaround: Use a TimeInterval binding for chartScrollPosition(x:) and chartScrollPosition(y:) on Date axes.

SwiftData​

New Features​

  • Conflicting writes from other processes sharing the same file can cause a crash. (109488127)

Resolved Issues​

  • Fixed: willSet and didSet observers will prevent @Model from properly transforming those stored properties and they will not persist. (109664186)

Known Issues​

  • Properties with default values are not initialized correctly. (107887871)
    Workaround: Set the property value in initializer instead.
  • @Query results can appear stale or fail to refresh. (108385553)
  • Case value is not stored properly for a string rawvalue enumeration. (108634193)
    Workaround: Don’t use a rawvalue with a string enum property.
  • Schema migration can fail when nesting non-optional properties inside an optional containing struct. (108854663)
  • Properties with .externalStorage are not being stored in peripheral files. (108972391)
  • Scene modifier isUndoEnabled does not propagate correctly. (109373617)
    Workaround: Use view modifier.
  • Modeled enum properties with default values won’t compile unless they are fully qualified values. (109421492)
    Workaround: Fully qualify enum values in property’s default value.
  • SwiftData queries will not work with #Predicate { true } and #Predicate { false } will cause a crash. (109425342)
    Workaround: Use a logically true expression like { 1 == 1 }.
  • #Predicate does not support UUID, Date, and URL properties. (109539652)
  • @Query using SortDescriptors based on .reverse sorting on strings can fail to fetch results. (109572633)
    Workaround: Sort ordered .forward.
  • Creating a @Query with a sortdescriptor that uses a relationship keypath will crash. (109626376)
  • SwiftData queries don’t support some #Predicate flatmap and nil coalescing behaviors. (109723704)
  • Xcode code generation for SwiftData Models from CoreData xcdatamodels will refer to originalName instead of renamingIdentifier. (109782236)
    Workaround: Use renamingIdentifier.
  • Unsigned applications using Document API without a proper app container may overwrite the default container. (109784405)
    Workaround: Codesign the project.
  • After deleting an item, SwiftUI may attempt to reference the deleted content during the animation causing a crash. (109838173)
    Workaround: Explicitly save after a delete.
  • Custom schema migrations with SchemaMigrationPlan will fail. (110114696)

SwiftUI​

New Features​

  • RoundedRectangle now defaults to the continuous corner style. (63246947)
  • .onChange has new overloads where the closure takes 0 or 2 arguments, these new versions will call the new version of the closure (i.e. after the specified value has changed), so any captured properties will have up to date values. The previous overload (which calls the old version of the closure) has been deprecated. (67344857)
  • Spring animations will now default to being critically damped (i.e. a bounce of 0). (75149732)
  • Scenes in Catalyst now support the windowResizabilitymodifier. (84203422)
  • Added support for dialogSeverity in Catalyst applications. (95918809)
  • Use the springLoadingBehavior(_:) view modifier to control spring loading behavior of views.
    Some views, like TabView, default to allowing spring loading, while others, like Button, do not.
    Spring loading refers to a view being activated during a drag and drop interaction. On iOS this can occur when pausing briefly on top of a view with dragged content. On macOS this can occur with similar brief pauses or on pressure-sensitive systems by “force clicking” during the drag. (96569875)
  • Lists using the SidebarListStyle hosted in primary column of a UIKit UISplitNavigationController were previously rendering with an insetGrouped appearance. With this change they will render as the expected sidebar appearance similar to if the List were hosted in a SwiftUI NavigationSplitView. (96909195)
  • Previously all Sections inside Lists using the SidebarListStyle received outline disclosure indicators at the top of every Section even when a developer did not provide a header for the section. This lead to odd looking floating disclosure indicators. (98001084)
  • Use the buttonRepeatBehavior(_:) view modifier to make buttons repeatedly trigger their actions on prolonged interactions. Apply this to buttons that increment or decrement a value or perform some other inherently iterative operation. Interactions such as pressing-and-holding on the button, holding the button’s keyboard shortcut, and holding down the space key while the button is focused trigger this repeat behavior. (102156410)
  • Animation.default now uses a spring animation equivalent to Animation.spring. In addition, Animation.default is now only equal to itself when using ==, allowing users to differentiate between animations that were intentionally chosen and those that use the default animation. (103169056)
  • During gesture change callbacks, velocity will automatically be tracked so that it can be applied to animations that finish when the gesture finishes. (103371523)
  • When two Text are vertically adjacent (for example in a VStack with no spacer in between) SwiftUI will automatically calculate appropriate spacing. To opt-out if this behavior either place a Spacer or specify spacing parameter to the container view. (104782785)
  • For apps built using the macOS 14 SDK, using DismissAction to close a window will default to using DismissBehavior.interactive. (105406945)
  • A NavigationSplitView collapses into a single column in some situations, such as on iPhone, Apple Watch, or iPad in slide-over. When this happens the columns of the split view are arranged into a stack. By default, the split view automatically decides which column appears as the top of this stack based on the contents of the columns. It considers whether any embedded List views have selections and whether any embedded NavigationStack views have non-empty paths.
    NavigationSplitView provides new initializers that give users control over which column of the split view appears on top. Use initializers like NavigationSplitView(preferredTopColumn:sidebar:content:detail:) or NavigationSplitView(preferredTopColumn:sidebar:detail:) and provide a binding specifying the column that should be visible when the split view is collapsed into a stack. When using an app pops the stack, SwiftUI updates the binding. (106241051)
  • When using @Environment(\.self) to capture an entire EnvironmentValues, SwiftUI will now track which properties are accessed to only invalidate the property when those properties change. (106310433)
  • Use the new navigationDestination(item:destination:)overload to present a navigation destination when a bound item is non-nil, or to dismiss the destination when the bound item becomes nil again. (106319528)
  • Shapes now default to mirroring when in a right to left layout direction. (107405880)
  • Changing from one Gradient value to another will now animate, but only once apps are rebuilt against the new SDK. (107408691)
  • All Sections inside List and Table can be configured to be collapsible using new initializers on Section. Previously all Sections inside Lists using the SidebarListStyle received outline disclosure indicators in every header. Section headers will no longer render this control by default. An outline disclosure will only be provided in the header if the Section is initialized with an isExpanded binding to a bool. This bool represents the isExpandedstate of the Section. Sections created with an isExpandedbinding inside a Table on macOS will now provide a default outline disclosure indicator to collapse or expand the Section. (107592493)
  • The listSectionSpacing modifier can now be used within Lists. (109271050)
  • Scenes in Catalyst now support the defaultSize modifier. (110038374)

Resolved Issues​

  • Fixed:Menu could not be used with hoverEffect. (67879883)
  • Fixed: NavigationSplitView reuses view controllers in more cases, resulting in significantly improved performance. This might change the behavior of code that relies on the life cycle messages sent to UIHostingController because such controllers will be created less often. (88880547)
  • Fixed an issue where dynamically enabled buttons (e.g. with a TextField) were not updated in alerts. (95917673)
  • Fixed: menuStyle(.button) is compatible with custom button style implementations. Applying a custom buttonStyle on a Menuis supported. (96156722)
  • Fixed: Scroll environment properties like isScrollEnabled and scrollDismissesKeyboardMode are no longer propagated past nested scroll views. (99195890)
  • Fixed: Gestures could be misaligned if an app was backgrounded while a sheet was presented. (99202394)
  • Fixed: Previously it was possible for views animating their removal via a transition to be drawn above a view with the same zIndex that has not yet been removed. This was unintentional and has now been updated: views transitioning out of the view hierarchy are always drawn below non-removed views with the same zIndex. (101085960)
  • Fixed: Table row identifiers in ForEach are now derived from their ForEach identifier rather than the TableRow identifier within the ForEach. In this example, from within a Table:
    ForEach(myData) { data in
    TableRow(data.someFieldAlsoOfTypeData)
    }

    the resulting identifiers used by SwiftUI are now data.id rather than data.someFieldAlsoOfTypeData.id. If user needs to restore prior behavior, specify the ID explicitly using the id of the ForEach. (101174261)
  • Fixed: Buttons in toolbars on iOS have improved metrics but support fewer customizations. (102198062)
  • Fixed: LazyVGrid or LazyHGrid has an improved layout when used with fixedSize(). (103075945)
  • Fixed: A visual artifact around sheets when rotating iPhone. (106020927)
  • Fixed: When a flexible frame modifier (e.g. frame(minHeight: 100, maxHeight: 200)) is used inside a scroll view the modified view could end up truncating content. This would most often be visible with the content view being a VStack with multiline text. (107014454)
  • Fixed: When scrolling to the end of a scroll view using ScrollViewReader, the final offset will be clamped to the scroll view’s total content size and no longer overscroll. (107558652)
  • Fixed: Removed a spurious warning, “NavigationLink presenting a value must appear inside a NavigationContent-based NavigationView. Link will be disabled.” (107877668)
  • Fixed: Suggested search tokens will be hidden by default when the search text is not empty (108381393)
  • Fixed: ScrollView when used with the searchable modifier has an improved transition when presenting or dismissing search on iOS and iPadOS. (109265624)
  • Fixed: Two NavigationSplitView initializers taking columnVisibility as a value rather than a Binding. (109426553)

Known Issues​

  • The new navigationDestination(item:destination:)overload only works to present from one column of a NavigationSplitView to another. The overload should also work inside a NavigationStack but does not currently. (106106406)
  • In some circumstances, the first view pushed onto a NavigationStack or collapsed NavigationSplitView may fail to animate. (106602046)
  • Views in Lists and Lazy Stacks may be improperly displayed after scrolling. (108021411)
  • View.defaultFocus(_:_:) isn’t reliable with text controls. (109750983)
    Workaround: Manually update focus state bindings from an action passed to View.onAppear(perform:).
  • View.onKeyPress(_:action:) can’t filter key presses when bridged controls have focus. (109799056)

SwiftUI Outline​

Resolved Issues​

  • Fixed: Leaf views in OutlineGroups (those views where the children keyPath argument has a value of nil) are no longer wrapped in implicit HStacks. If relying on an implicit HStack before, users will now see multiple rows when linking against the new SDK.
    In this example:
    private struct Node: Identifiable {
    let id = UUID()
    let name: String
    let children: [Node]?
    }

    fileprivate let data = [
    Node(name: "One", children: [.init(name: "Two", children: nil)]),
    Node(name: "A", children: [
    .init(name: "B", children: nil),
    .init(name: "C", children: nil),
    .init(name: "D", children: nil),
    ])
    ]

    struct OutlineExample: View {
    var body: some View {
    List(data) { node in
    DisclosureGroup("Node \(node.name)", isExpanded: .constant(true)) {
    OutlineGroup(node, children: \.children) { child in
    Label("Row:", systemImage: "circle.hexagonpath.fill")
    Text("Node \(child.name)")
    }
    }
    }
    }
    }

    (104751549)

Symbol Effects​

Known Issues​

  • In the objective-C API in Symbols.framework, requesting effectWithWholeSymbol on NSSymbolPulseEffect and NSSymbolBounceEffect will result in the effect being configured to animate by layer instead. (109284710)

UIKit​

New Features​

  • When you build your app against iOS 17.0, iPadOS 17.0, or macOS 14.0 SDKs, the evaluted indirect input event support mode will change. Apps built on these SDKs without the UIApplicationSupportsIndirectInputEvents key will have indirect input event support enabled. Apps built on these SDKs with the UIApplicationSupportsIndirectInputEvents will have that key honored.
    If indirect input event support is not desired when built against the listed SDKs, add UIApplicationSupportsIndirectInputEvents to your info.plist with a boolean value of NO. (68295914)
  • UIDevice.batteryLevel is rounded to the closest multiple of 0.05. (107718393)
  • The query rects passed in to -layoutAttributesForElementsInRect: will be more specific to the collection view’s frame, and the rect might intersect with previously queried frames. If subclassing a UIKit vended layout and modifying the frames of elements by applying offsets, make sure that the same offset is applied to the rect passed in to -layoutAttributesForElementsInRect: as well, or the user might see items disappearing when they shouldn’t be. (108663389)

Known Issues​

  • The new UIHoverStyle API doesn’t currently add any visible hover effects when set on a UIView. (108409077)

UIKit Documents​

Known Issues​

  • UIDocumentViewController might cause a crash when being dismissed without an external reference holding on to it. (109283791)
    Workaround: Create an external reference from the presenting view controller to hold on to the document view controller.
  • When a file is renamed, for example via UIDocument’s new built-in renaming capabilities, the app might lose access to this file. (109516057)
    Workaround: Close the file and request access to it again. For example, by selecting the file in a UIDocumentBrowserViewController.

User Enrollment​

Known Issues​

  • User-enrolled devices with Managed Apple IDs fail to update to iOS 17 beta. (109830404)
    Workaround: Remove the MDM enrollment from the device and perform the update. After updating to iOS 17 beta, re-enroll the device.

Video Effects​

Known Issues​

  • The Video Effects menu bar item might not appear for certain applications. (110038665)
    Workaround: For Continuity Camera, use another Video app, like FaceTime, to set the Video Effects.

VideoToolbox​

Known Issues​

  • You might receive an error when trying to call the new VideoToolbox Swift APIs. (109523782)

Vision​

Resolved Issues​

  • Fixed: VNDetectHumanBodyPose3DRequest now returns results for images/frames of people without depth metadata or camera intrinsics explicitly provided. (109723859)

Voicemail​

Known Issues​

  • Manually deleted voicemails might still appear on a paired Watch. (110072691)
    Workaround: Delete voicemail directly on Apple Watch.

Wallpaper​

Known Issues​

  • Depth effect wallpapers on a 180 degree rotation might result in a distorted image. (105729379)
    Workaround: Lock and unlock the device.
  • Home Screen wallpapers might appear more dim than expected. (108812409)
    Workaround: Switch to a different wallpaper and back or restart the device.
  • iPhone Home Screen Photo wallpaper might appear in the wrong orientation. (109716224)
  • Wallpaper on iPad might display in the incorrect orientation. (109894244)
  • Under certain circumstances, images might show top level visual treatment. (109952206)
    Workaround: Use pinch to zoom to reframe tighter into the image.
  • Images might show a black bar at the top when selected as part of the Smart Shuffle Photos poster. (109974498)
    Workaround: Use pinch to zoom in the editor to refresh the view.

Weather Averages​

Known Issues​

  • Placeholders are displayed in locations where Weather averages data isn’t available. (110133240)

WebKit​

Known Issues​

  • External camera previews appear rotated 90 degrees. (105520083)

Wi-Fi​

Known Issues​

  • Wi-Fi might not connect automatically to known networks after updating to iOS 17 beta if the device isn’t passcode-protected and isn’t signed into iCloud. (109813416)
    Workaround: Manually join the Wi-Fi network.
  • While a Mac has active traffic via Wi-Fi, you might experience difficulty discovering and connecting to Continuity Camera. (109954955)
    Workaround: Stop active traffic over the Wi-Fi link before starting a Continuity Camera session.

WidgetKit​

Known Issues​

  • Some configuration intent parameter values might not migrate properly from a SiriKit custom intent to an app intent. (109228854)
  • Starting Live Activities from interactive widgets might not work. (109369422)
    Workaround: Launch the Live Activity from within the app.

Widgets​

Known Issues​

  • Dragging Lock Screen widgets to the Lock Screen widget area on iPad and iPhone might not work. (106379745)
  • Manually configured widgets might lose their configuration. (108616752)
    Workaround: Reconfigure the affected widgets.
  • It isn’t possible to use a trackpad to add widgets to a Lock Screen. (110047943)

I have the betas running on iPad Pro M1, iPhone 13 minI and watch series 5. All running almost flawless. Good betas so far.

ps. Bad: iPad says download not possible, needs 13GB free space. iPad has 37Gb free space. iPhone same issue…

iOS 17 B1 was rock solid as a daily driver and all the apps that I used worked fine. Only bug that bothered me was the crossfade one which everyone had, now that's fixed in B2 I have no issues so far. Hopefully B2 is just as good.

Still no B2 showing up for my ultra watch just yet but B1 on that was also rock solid and battery life for me was fine. Only major bug that I personally had was the temperature and humidity sensors page on the watch home app was blank so I really hope thats fixed in B2.

Update: iOS 17 B2 has also fixed a bug I had with Discord where the built in Discord emoji/gif/stiker keyboard would disappear after pressing on it the second time 😃

Apple today seeded the second betas of upcoming iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 updates to developers for testing purposes, with the software coming two weeks after the release of the first betas following the WWDC keynote event.

iOS-17-Icon-Mock-Feature-Feature.jpg

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 16 Developer Beta. Note that an Apple ID associated with a developer account is required to download and install the beta.

iOS 17 is a major update that introduces a customized look for each person that calls, with the person who places the call able to customize their look. Live voicemails let you see a transcript of a message someone is leaving in real time so you can choose to pick up the phone if you want, and voice messages people send in iMessage are now transcribed into text. You can also record a video or audio message when someone misses your FaceTime call, and FaceTime works on the Apple TV through Continuity functionality.

In Messages, apps have been moved to a new tucked-away interface for a cleaner look, and there is a new Check In feature that is designed to let your friends and family keep an eye on you when you're traveling. Check In automatically notifies friends or family members when you arrive at a destination, such as home. Locations can also now be shared directly from the Messages app.

In a group chat, there's a catch-up arrow so you can see the first message you haven't seen in a conversation, and with search filters, you can more easily find what you're looking for. Stickers have been overhauled, and all emoji are now stickers, living alongside sticker packs and Memoji. Using the remove from background feature in iOS 17, you can turn the subject from any image into a sticker.

With StandBy, an iPhone placed horizontally turns into a little home hub that displays information like the calendar, time, home controls, and more, and Live Activities can be displayed in full screen too.

Widgets on the Home Screen are interactive, so you can do things like check off an item on a to-do list or turn off the lights without having to open an app. AirDrop has been improved and there's a NameDrop function for sharing contacts quickly, plus you can hold two iPhones together to start a SharePlay session. SharePlay also now works with CarPlay so passengers can play their music in the car too.

Other new features include a journaling app coming later this year, AirPlay in select hotel rooms, improvements to AirPods Pro 2 thanks to a new Adaptive Audio feature, offline Maps, Siri that does not require the "Hey" activation, and improvements to search and spotlight.

While today's beta is limited to developers, Apple will be providing a public beta later this summer.

Yes, I had like 90gb of free data and it said I didn't have enough space. I deleted a few larger apps and then downloaded it. Afterward I redownloaded the apps. It was odd, and slightly frustrating.

In the new update screen font is all large except for the one part people are actually looking at which is "Preparing Update..." or other status updates. I didn't even see it as first since seems small compared to rest of text and the bar chart didn't show for a while. Hopefully Maps working again. When leaving home it fails to find my location half the time with Beta 1 so been using Waze. But overall still quite stable overall. Also when opening Facebook Messenger and other apps often the keyboard auto opens when its not suppose to and blocks the content but closing the app resolves it.

Yeah a weird bug. Look at your general—about page. Mine showed 6gb free despite there being 60gb free in the detailed storage screen.

I had to off load unused apps to “make room”. I bet lots of people will experience this. A bug I didn’t know existed with beta 1 until this update came through.

Edit: after the update it’s fixed.
