Very quick update - around 350MB on a 14PM
 
It seems like a very small update. I'd be happy if we get the expected performance, stability, and battery life.

426MB on my 14pro. pretty small, yes. let's see how much they fixed..or not.

Maybe, just saying, if iOS 17 is coming to every device running iOS 16 and it is focused on stability, battery life and bug fixes, maybe Apple won’t make a huge effort in polishing iOS 16 on the last updates. It’s just a theory.
 
Did a quick check of some previously existing bugs(?) and they are still there.
Not seeing anything new atm …
Groundbreaking. Emphasis on breaking. At this point I think we should expect nothing less than for iOS 17 to be another absolute freaking snuff film, but that said the optimist in me is looking forward to it. And to the cognitive dissonance elicited in Apple's defense. 🤣

If iOS 17 doesn't come with any stability, it's going to push me away from using Apple products TBH. Screw bringing features, I need more stability than iOS 16 offers, which is about 20% lol

expecting stability out of the initial iOS 17 builds is naive at best. Maybe by the time the 1st public beta drops...

But you won't leave iOS... anyone who was gonna leave iOS would've already left iOS.
 
Please elaborate on all of these stability issues you face.
Dynamic Island being stuck on the right side of the screen, wifi/cellular constantly disconnecting, face ID glitching and not working when unlocking the phone or using apple pay, etc.
