Has the RC hit the beta channel yet? It tends to be a day or so before the official release date.

Will be on Tuesday after the event, won’t be before then as RC’s include new hardware or unannounced features.

I've always installed the RC a couple of days before the event.

/edit - No, I'm wrong. IIRC, the new OS becomes available on the day the new devices ship and the RC hits a couple of days before that. Maybe.

I’ve turned beta updates off now so will just download 17.0 proper next week.

I'll turn it off as well if this is the last beta update, then wait for official release next week.

Why would you turn off beta updates now? Surely you’d do it after getting the RC later today otherwise you’ll be on beta 8 till release.

Not going to be any massive changes between now and next week surely?

Not massive but I don't understand why you wouldn’t update to the RC build which baring any last minute changes will be the same as the release version.

For that very reason-I’d rather just wait for the official release version than download the RC to then download the official release.

No biggie my man-only a week to go.

RC seems to be becoming available OTA. Just waiting for a full ipsw to appear to update my 14 Pro.

Downloaded the RC IPSW, but now have to sit and wait for Apple to make the software update available that will allow me to install the iOS 17 RC file from my MacBook

iOS 17 RC out now on Public Beta 17 OTA.

iOS 17 RC out now on Public Beta 17 OTA.

What, just pick the public beta and that’s the RC? Is there any difference between that and the developer beta? It’s offering me both.

I’m not sure on the revision numbers. On the public beta - I’m on iOS 17.0 (21A329) which is indeed reported to be RC.

Change log includes security related but I haven’t noticed any other changes.

 

[Feek]

It doesn’t list the version number prior to updating which is a little frustrating. I suppose I can just go for it and hope.

 

[Broken Hope]

All the beta channels are offering the RC so you can update without worry.

I did my phone, Mac, Apple TV and Watch yesterday.

Apple have posted a document with all the iOS 17 changes.

Is Live Voicemail supported in the UK? I don't see the option. I have iOS 17.0 (21A329) on my 13 Pro Max.

Silly question, but if I install the beta, or release candidate as it is now..,will it switch over from the beta channel back to normal updates once it’s officially released ??

It's not fully released yet it might be a feature coming not yet available.

You will need to switch it over from beta channel to OFF.
