How do i download the beta?
On your device, you can go to Settings > General > Software Update and at the top there will be an option for beta updates. Tap that and you can select the public beta or developer beta. You can also check out the Apple Beta Software Program site as well.
I hope this helps.
Says i need to make a backup before, is that just a safety measure or is it indispensable to avoid data loss after the update is complete?
You should not join the beta on your main device
Correct, you should use a separate device for testing.
Journal app is finally here folks!
Is the Journal on MacOS as well?
Yeah, it’s the Notes app /s
Do we know when sideloading is coming to EU devices?
They have until March 2024 to bring sideloading to EU iPhones or they will be pulled from the market as stated in the law.
I want to be able to sideload, I think Apple’s restrictions are dumb and I should be able to install anything I want on the device that I own.
That said, I’m deeply concerned that the government just has the right to yank something off the market. Unless it’s unsafe, exploits children, is designed to perform criminal activity, etc. I think it’s deeply troubling that the government has this much power.
They should take away your right to comment
I mean, the government can pull your product off the market if you break the law.
Don’t break the law and you are allowed to sell whatever you want.
Don’t break the law and you are allowed to sell whatever you want.
This is not how it should work. This has been abused before.
Any news on the Carplay update?

Full topo on watch rollout yet?
Any chance we can swipe between watch faces again?
This
Oh you mean that feature where if I wore a jacket my sleeve would change my watch face all the time? Yeah. Not coming back. Thank god
How would your sleeve trigger that…
I agree with your sentiment. It’s not like it is a huge change to hold it down for a couple of seconds to swipe to a different face, but for someone in my profession as a pet stylist, it was obnoxious looking down to see that a pet grazing my arm or water from a bath had changed it. It’s better this way in my humble opinion. Less likely to accidentally go to a different face when many times I need to be able to look at something at a glance.
huh? on apple watch? i have no problem swiping between faces. just hold your finger down for a few seconds and the face drops back, then just swipe left/right. tap and new face is selected. what’s missing?
That new TVos TV update is pretty interesting. I wonder if that side menu is only the “channels” subscribed to in the TV app through Apple, or any 3rd party compatible streaming at, regardless of how the subscription works.
The new weather widget that shows the five day forecast in the smaller size is something I have been wanting for awhile. Will free up some more widget space on my home screens.
I got way too hyped when I saw that.
don’t install iOS 17.2 if you’re on French “Free mobile” carrier
SMS emission don’t work any more (thanks to Apple forcing LTE SMS)
SMS reception works only in wifi
Apple and Free mobile carrier know the issue.
see below:
MAJ : pour contourner le problème, activer les Appels Wi-Fi dans les réglages et être connecté à un réseau Wi-Fi, les SMS sont OK dans ce cas
Free est au courant du problème
