Hehe. No probs. Just kidding.

17.3 OTA is NOT out yet. Give it a few minutes

Edit: Now it's out 🙂

 

[Abthevolfan92]

17.3 will be one we reminisce over for some time

Not seeing iOS yet. Slow rollouts, except for tvOS and just now MacOS for me.

PSA: Be careful with this one. As a reminder, we may stick with this beta until January

or look at it on the bright side.. missed calls, text, emails.. blame it on the beta!

 

[Pearsey]

ITS OUT 😆😂

 

[Realityck]

iOS 17.3 beta has collaborative playlists back and the new security protection to prevent someone from simply using a stolen password with your phone. People with public 17.2 will just have to wait several weeks. 😱

Debating whether I want to put 17.3 beta 1 on my phone since we probably won't see a beta 2 for a month... I'm thinking its coming today!

I usually give this one a day or two and then dive in...That's enough time to see if there's anything wonky or any show stoppers.

Even if so, I’d expect them to have the thread out before 10:30am Pacific time.

I installed the iPadOS 17.3 beta, and so far it’s been stable. I haven’t encountered any new bugs so far. 👍🏻

The super-smooth scrolling seems to have gone away. I’m getting some minor frame drops scrolling up and down this page.

I’ll give it a day to settle but the change was immediately noticeable with 17.2.

15PM here.

Other then iOS offering again the collaborative playlists and the new stolen device protection, this .3 beta cycle for the various OS per the SDK notes is mostly regulated to bug fixes again as 15.3 and 16.3 was.

The is just a very short beta 2/RC cycle again. Going by number of days/day of the week likely Tuesdays Jan 9th and Jan 16th, released Jan 22 on a Monday. More changes arrive with iOS 17.4 its seems.

Do you guys think will there be iOS 17.2.1 anytime soon?

Nope

Do you guys think will there be iOS 17.2.1 anytime soon?

soon as in the week after new years probably

The higher the release version the less likely Apple will continue to provide patches as often as 17.0, 17.1 with 17.2. The current 17.3 beta has only a very short bug fix life, irregardless of the two changes. (protection/collaborative playlists). Security patches do occur, but we can't speculate on that very well.

I am waiting for 17.2.1

Who else?

 

[Kal Madda]

If the second beta for iOS 17.3 doesn’t add any additional new features, I think the iPadOS 17.3 beta cycle should be pretty short. Maybe we’ll see the public release of 17.3 sooner, and bypass a 17.2.1 update altogether. 🤷🏼‍♂️
