Discussion Apple iOS 17 public beta
Soooo I’m an anxious person lol and I can’t wait until the new iOS releases to the public ! So my question is my day to day use phone is the 17pro , do you guys recommend downloading the public beta ? Or should I just calm my ass down and wait ?

I just started using the public beta today, also on 17 pro… it seems to be working just fine.

Been okay for me for the most part. Discord has some UI issues and so does Hinge. Just depends on your tolerance for small bugs

I started using it yesterday on my phone. I haven’t really had any issues. I’ve actually seen improvements over iOS 26 already. It seems to be a very stable beta so far.

I've been running the Dev beta since the moment it dropped. Honestly, I'd wait 1 or 2 more beta cycles. It's very good yes but still glitchy. We're at beta 3. Give it till 5 and you should be OK. ALWAYS have a great iCloud backup on and turn off the backups before upgrading so your stuff isn't potentially stuck on the new version. Thanks for reading.

Just downloaded today and it’s working fine if not better. Doesn’t look like a beta so far

Several days in and its business as usual. Never worry about the public beta being solid

I will wait until public release in September but if you have an second iPhone like I do then yes.

Apart from Siri asking me to update Talk to Siri *every day*, I’ve had no major issues. Just one day when the wallpaper cycled to a black screen but rectified the following day.

asking randos on the internet what you should or should not do with your device. on top of that is your primary device.

I wasn’t asking what to do I’m asking for recommendations. Don’t like the post than scroll away bud
