iOS 17.1 Likely to Launch Tomorrow

The keyboard is still laggy…

I really hope they fix Notes. The Find In Note function is glitchy and unusable most of the time. And sometimes scrolling is jaggy and not smooth.

The find behaviour has been borked since iOS 16, we reported it more than a year ago... mind bending how a company of Apple's size can't even fix an essential functionality like this.

macOS Music app too, if you search for an artist, click on it, then go to back to the search bar, erase and input another artist name, does nothing. You have to go out of the current artist view or write, erase & write again the new artist in the bar for it to pick it up and show results.

Messages search we all know how that went, & obviously QA has been non existent since Cook pretty much.

I received 15PM on the 19th with iOS 17.0.2 and the only bugs encountered are Messages notification tone intermittently does not play and custom ringtones and alert tones are not showing. Otherwise solid OS for me, although it has only been 4 days.

Also the Shortcut Gruber posted on DF for the action button is pretty slick.🤙🏻

"10:00 a.m. Pacific [Daylight] Time" may be better known as 17:00 UTC in some regions.

If the French rumours were correct — by the 24th — there’s still a little time (about 40 minutes at the time of writing) before it’s the 24th in France!
😄🤣🙃

So apple was lying about the “BY” the 24th thing?

 

[MrRom92]

I fully expect a 17.1.1

 

[Rafterman]

Don't count on some of these bug fixes. It took them two years to fix the TV app showing movies and TV shows out of alphabetical order.

 

[Debauch]

I love iOS updates. Apple does a great job releasing all the bugs early on then catching up with features later.

 

[makeitrainnaren]

I haven't restored DFU since iOS 16.1.2. Do you think I should do it for iOS 17.1? I'm currently using iOS 17.0.3.

It’s safe to DFU esims are maintained and I’ve done it like 30 times this week. There were iPhone 15 specific driver issues to properly dfu but it works fine as of now after Apple pushed an updated driver 2 days back.

What about iPhoneOS 17.1?!?

 

[SkippyThorson]

[...]
Last week, Apple seeded release candidates (RCs) for all of the upcoming software refreshes. Apple usually tests RCs for about a week to make sure there are no device-breaking bugs, and this time around, we're also clued in on a specific launch date because of an update in France.

iOS 17.1 in France includes a feature to reduce the radiation level of iPhone 12 models when they are stationary on a table or another surface, and French regulatory group ANFR two weeks ago confirmed that the iOS 17.1 update is expected to come out "by October 24."

Article Link: iOS 17.1 Likely to Launch Tomorrow

The link in the second paragraph of today's article took me to a Friday, October 13th article.

The 10/13 article linked to a Tuesday, October 10th article.

The 10/10 article finally linked to the original Apple bulletin about French SAR testing.

A fine jigsaw puzzle of citation work, indeed.

Doesn't seem to address any of these bugs, which did not exist in iOS16...

1. Notes scanner doesn't trim the edges properly or add the file to an email when you click 'share'
2. Find My tells me I've left my bicycle behind, even though I excluded it from doing so. (Of course I've left my bike behind - that's what people do with bikes!!!)
3. Repeating data removed from reminders when checked-off as completed in iCloud
4. Alarm complication doesn't show alarms on Watch face correctly. Currently says ALL ALARMS ARE OFF. No, they aren't...

I don't mind when new stuff has bugs, but breaking old stuff drives me crazy...

 

[dwaltwhit]

Maybe more important fixes to address first?

Seems like the kind of thing that would be nearly finished when announced and/or have a small, dedicated team

 

[FunkyTang]

Is this one of those 8am pacific time releases or just another 10am release?

 

[svish]

Will be updating my iPad immediately. Hopefully it fixes AirDrop 'Declined" issue.

 

[MobiusStrip]

Will it finally have audible notifications of missed calls? I mean... this pathetic and embarrassing defect has persisted since day one of the iPhone's release.

 

[bousozoku]

iOS 17.1.1 likely to launch a week from tomorrow to adress an issue that could cause.......

I guess I will wait for 17.1.2 then.

 

[usefx]

Just encountered a bug that made me reset my Apple TV. It turns out that the bug is already several years old. Where can I write about it?
If you change the wi-fi password, you can no longer change the password on Apple TV, and you can't forget or access Wi-Fi.

 

[dampfnudel]

It looks like I may be getting close to updating my 14 Pro and 12 Pro from 16.7.1. Or maybe should I wait until 17.1.1 or 17.2?

 

[The Game 161]

double tap to be released then?

 

[k1ckdapro]

It looks like I may be getting close to updating my 14 Pro and 12 Pro from 16.7.1. Or maybe should I wait until 17.1.1 or 17.2?

Better wait until 18.3

 

[Feek]

Without reading all through the thread, is the weather complication bug on watchOS sorted?

 

[n-evo]

Agreed. It’s far too easy to activate.

Hate it as well. It’s something I dislike the most about most touch devices in general tbh; every pixel triggers something. Often by accident.

 

[SidricTheViking]

So apple was lying about the “BY” the 24th thing?

But I don’t think Apple said it. I believe it was some French official.

 

[plek]

Hoping it fixes the issue introduced in 17.0 with 3rd party apps and system data eating up storage.
