*** The Official iOS 17 Thread ***

Has anyone had battery issues since updating to 17.1? My 11 drops about 10-15% per hour just sat in my pocket doing nothing

Chose the wrong day to setup my new iPhone 14 Pro. The new iOS 17.1 update is taking absolutely ages and all I want to do is get into the OS and get my data transferred!

Why did you get the 14 over the 15?

I’m finding iOS 17 quite buggy at times but much better now.

I'm loving the new favourites feature in Apple Music. It makes it so easy to keep your absolute favourite music from any genre in one place.

Isn't it the same as ones you 'loved' before, just renamed?

Not sure. It just makes it easy to have a smart playlist that shows all your favourites whichever tracks you favourite it then gets used by the algorithm for other music.

I never really used love songs though so I might be completely wrong.

I just updated to 17, quite hopeful about the 'standby' function making my phone into a useful bedside clock while it's charging.

But it's annoying that it will only do it in landscape orientation though - my charging dock is set up for portrait only!

Seems an odd restriction. Why not allow it to work either way?

 

[bazzabear]

So much for that. The standby mode when charging with the phone in landscape ... times out and turns the screen off after a minute or so. What's the point of that?

Have you disabled always on display?

 

[bazzabear]

No, a bit of a google shows that it's only iPhone 14 and newer that can keep the display on. Because that's a genuine limitation of the technology, and not just a shady way to force people to upgrade.

The delivery times were quite late into November and I stood to make a saving by getting a pristine refurb 14 Pro.

 

[Cromulent]

I'm wondering if Marvis Pro is going to get updated with all the new Apple Music features. I hope so as I really like that app.

17.1.1 released.

 

[No-One]

Took my iPhone 11 off charge at 10am and just left it on my desk. All apps closed, background app refresh fully off. At 1pm it has dropped to 85%. Surely this can't be right. Battery health shows at 86%. iOS 16 was fine

It’s a 4 year old phone, batteries don’t last for ever. It’s probably been turbo decreased with the latest update because well, apple being apple.

New feature incoming to 17.2 - the ability to change the default notification sound which has never been possible. Nice

 

[Feek]

iOS 17.1.2 is available.

RC's up across the board. Qi2 charging incoming to 13 and 14 series phones.

Sounds good! I'm looking forward to collaborative playlists in this release. That'll be fun.

They got removed from beta 4 and they aren't in the RC either, so don't be looking forward to those.
