Apple seeds first iOS 17 public beta for iPhone; Know what it brings and how to get it

1 year ago 66

After weeks of waiting, Apple has finally rolled out the first public beta of iOS 17 for iPhones. Yesterday, the Cupertino-based tech giant also released a revised version of iOS 17 developer beta 3, and reports claimed that it could be the same as the first public beta, which was then rolled out a couple of hours later. While developer betas are only accessible to registered developers, anyone can download the public betas and try new features on iPhones before everyone else. But this does not mean that iOS 17 rollout is expected soon.

As per the previous trends, Apple releases the next big iOS update at the same time as the launch of its new iPhones. Therefore, we could see the first public iOS 17 update in September. Meanwhile, users can give iOS 17 a try on their devices and get new features.

Unlike developer betas, anyone can download and try iOS 17 public beta updates as part of the Apple Beta Software Program. Users can try all the features and report feedback to Apple using the Feedback Assistant app.
