iOS 17.1 Likely to Launch Tomorrow

Well at least it was not like Clark Griswold that bought a pool before his paycheck.

I wonder if Android Authority knows something we don't or if they auto released an article without checking lol.

iOS 17.1 and watchOS 10.1 are finally rolling out, bringing promised features

Apple is rolling out iOS 17.1 to iPhones, watchOS 10.1 to Apple Watch, and more software updates across all of its devices. Read on!

www.androidauthority.com

They pulled the article. Lol

I was wondering if it is possible that Apple first only sends out software update availability to devices in France, then after a period of time allows devices in other countries to update. After all, looks like they did have a legal obligation to have the radiation issue resolved in France by the 24th. Thoughts?

Apple has updated specific devices or specific regions before, without sending a general update.

delisted from google but it's still there when I go to their home page lol

 

[DailySlow]

Tried that but Non.

10:34 AM (Pacific Time), still no update. There must be a major bug found and may have a RC3? I'm not surprised. Apple has been very buggy with their major release and updates.

They released iTunes for windows users today instead.

Oh, I definitely agree.

I'm staying on 16 for now anyway until more gets sorted out with 17. Can I just get the Sonoma update, please?

Given AM announcements, sometimes they do a 1p Pacific OS launch.

Fingers crossed

Fingers crossed

It's possible, but my gut tells me it will be just to address France's issues. The rest of us will have to wait.

True, your previous point about them pushing region specific updates might be correct, but until the 14's I'm pretty sure USA and EU were the same models so older phones should get it at the same time. However, I wonder if the RAD fix is bundled in the emergency security updates rather than general OTA.

For what? They issued a release candidate one week ago exactly and a second for 15 model iPhones last Friday. If it ain't ready to go by now, it never will be.

Is this the first time Apple has been late with an official release? I’m sure the French are not pleased.

Once again, this time wasnt just rumours. The problem here is that the French authorities lied in their public statement when they said that 17.1 would be released on October 24th. Plain and simple.

nahhhhh I don't think it's as simple as that. We find out about iPhone leaks through FCC filings all the time, registering for govt operation isn't a one day process.

I want to go to France one day but that area is so unstable and it’s so expensive to go.

Define "late" -- Apple made no announcement that the update would be out today.

I seem to recall an update for iOS 16.0.1(?) coming out around noon or 1 PM PST.
