Start lobbying your elected representative if you want it in the U.S. Otherwise, yes, EU only.

33 days to go give or take 10 mins from this point in time.
But this year is worse than waiting for Christmas because of all the OS changes people would like and some badly needed hardware announcements.
This should be a yawning release, but it should bring stability.
Currently the only reason I don't yawn at iOS is when I'm raging at all the bugs I encounter in my daily activities. This is maddening.
I wish they would tone back the post-processing in the photos. The 14 pro has some great hardware that is neutered by their post-processing and you shouldn't have to use a 3rd party app (or change a bunch of settings) just to make it look how it should.
There is nothing called iPhoneOS.
Please finally allow your customers to place icons anywhere on the screen. For crying out loud were in 2023 and were still not allowed to do this since 2007. catch up already Apple.
catch up already Apple.
And how many of these features will be day 1? Guaranteed not all of them.
If you want sideloading in the US, you will probably have to buy a phone sold in the EU, activated on an EU carrier, and have a EU carrier plan.
see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_version_history
But since iOS 4 Apple never referred it again as such.
All I want is for that weird key in the top-left of the Magic Keyboard on the iPad to be able to be mapped to Esc
Yeah, I know; however, there is nothing called iPhoneOS 17 which is what they “corrected” the headline to read.
There is a forum user or two here that keeps calling it the old name on purpose. Go figure.
My jam is pluralizing technology and placing “the” in front if it.There is a forum user or two here that keeps calling it the old name on purpose. Go figure.
Everyone likes to feel special And unique. 🤣

Really looking forward to WWDC just to end the anticipation. This will not be the only time an article like this is written. Heck, it might be written again this week.
I've been interested more in TVOS and the Watch Update that I really don't know what to think about IOS 17. I still think Apple Music can be cleaned up and the user interface could be a whole lot better. I also would love more wallpaper choices, and interactive widgets. I also think they need to rethink notifications and the lock screen. IOS 16 has made the LS and notifications not great.

How will apple implement sideloading will it be EU only? If so, will there be a separate iOS build for the EU and another for the rest of the world? If not, then couldn’t non-EU users who want to sideload use a VPN to masquerade as an EU user and gain sideloading privileges?
Perhaps apple will use location services.

There’s always the key in the top left that no one I know has ever used
Apple is completely overhauling the ui and bringing the biggest update to iPhone OS in history, all this baby stuff was just to catch the leakers.
Why ruin iOS for anyone not forced by law to suffer. The vast majority of users don’t care and don’t want it so why impose it on them.
