iOS 17.1 Likely to Launch Tomorrow

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

One would think, but I've stopped using logic when it comes to Apple and these sorts of things lol. I hate the whole idea of them announcing features, but not actually making them available until some update to be named later.
 
Wow reading all the problems with clearing notification and problems with ringtones I'm glad I'm still on iOS 16o_O

I am looking forward to iOS 17.1 (hoping it releases today). My biggest frustration with iOS 17 thus far is the indexing via Photos app. In the past I was able to type in 9.2 and every photo/video i'd ever taken would be displayed. The same could be said for entering Sept 2 or September 2. This has been broken since updating to iOS 17. I do have a large Photo library however in the past after a few days of indexing eveyrting would be fine. iOS 17 has been out for a good bit now and it still doesn't work. This includes on my wife's iPhone. It works fine on my son's iPhone who is still on iOS 16 (he doesn't like to update lol). I've contacted Apple and have been active in the discussion boards including Reddit. I like this functionality as it allows me to easily sort past photos/videos to post throwback content (car show pics, family photos, etc.) via social media. I have about 25 years of digital photos/videos in my Photos library. Hoping it is resolved via iOS 17.1.

What bug is that? I haven't experienced any volume issues in CarPlay.

Randomly wont have any control over volume for approx 10-15m then suddenly it works. Quite frustrating. Affects only some head units apparently. Never had any issues until ios17 landed.
 
All these rumors we hear today about what Apple is about to do, give us and have in plans are absolutely not likely. Not even updates!

Pls MacRumors, change your vocabulary.

It’s getting close to slight humor at the best, and absolutely not rumor 😂

I complained about this two years ago when they "broke" it in iOS 15, and everybody shot me down about it. It's still one of the most frustrating regressions in iOS since I first got an iPhone.

who would argue abasing that???????? it's nonsense. It's a feature. if they didn't like, they didn't have to use it! 🤦‍♂️

Ah, but in this specific case, we know with absolute certainty that IOS 17.1 is going to be released later today. French authorities confirmed it publicly in a statement a few days ago. They specifically said October 24th.

When a HomePod is used as an Apple TV speaker, Enhance Dialogue cuts down on background noise and music when there's speaking so you can better hear what's being said.

The interesting thing here precisely it´s that it does not seem to be doing that. It does not lower background music or sounds effects, nor does it compress the entire range and soundstage like "reduce loud sounds" does. It analyzes the audio mix in real time, find the spoken word, bring it forward to the virtual center channel that the Homepods create, and then amplifies it.

But something else seems to be going on here. Is like a volume cap has been lifted and it´s no longer there. The Homepods are now MUCH louder and clearer in general with the Apple TV with this setting turned on, and thus have much more headroom now for content mixed at a low volume.

Game changer feature, indeed.

Thank you for the explanation. Looking forward to this update even more now.

For those who wait the lag on the keyboard when typing to disappear , you’re in for a treat. It’s a feature to stay.

Wait, there’s keyboard lag on the iPhone 15? Keyboard lag is the initial issue when updating iOS far enough. Keyboard smoothness is the first thing that breaks, the rest follows. I’ve never seen - nor have I experienced - keyboard lag on an original iOS version, ever. If the device you’re talking about is the iPhone 15, colour me surprised.

I´m also looking foward to it now that Apple has decided to bring it to the original homepods and the minis as well, which was a very unexpected but welcome surprise.

PS: Note that for this feature to work properly, 17.1 must be installed on both the Apple TV and the Homepods themselves. If you update the Apple TV but not the Homepods, enabling this on the apple tv video and audio settings wont make any difference whatsoever to the sound. During the beta testing period, a lot of people has encountered this issue, and the problem was that 17.1 needs to be installed on the homepods as well.

17.0 has been pretty solid for me, so I don't have much excitement about 17.1. I am, however, still waiting on the Journal app that was promised at WWDC - hopefully we will get it by 17.2?

Same, I don't feel comfortable using third party apps with my journaling, what will they do with all that info? At least Apple explicitly says it stays local
