iOS 17.4.1 with bug fixes and a splash of new bugs?
As the person who wrote that it was imminent, I can poke fun at myself here! I thought it would be ready sooner, but clearly not. Three days later isn't so bad, though.
Cellular 5G speed has dropped massively. Was getting around 250mbps now I’m lucky to get 5mbps.
It’s not a network issue as only happened after installing 17.4
Yes, that’s something I’m expecting as well, a really good battery life release (along with more bug fixes), to finally make the jump to iOS 17 on my devices.
Did anyone before 17.4.1 have a lag opening your App Store account or going into your ICloud account ? Well it’s gone now.
I don't think this is a bug that is going to get fixed in a future update. Apple wants you to update your older watch (mine is a 7 and I've tried it on an 8) to watchOS 10 for some reason. Not sure why. But I read somewhere (maybe an Apple support user forum) that this requirement was present in the 17.4 Beta releases. So if it's been present that long then it's not a bug but an intended requirement. Again, not sure why.
For me it’s the opposite ;D I had 5 and now I have 500 mbps. After installing 17.4
Unfortunately no, here is the guy who updated from watch os 9.6.1 to 10.4 after 17.4 in app banner. Home was broken, a lot shortcuts was broken, calendar stops working. And surprisingly 10.4 is OK.
I'm ok with an iOS update for my 12 PM......I still have issues with WiFi disconnecting me for no reason. Supposedly that was fixed, but apparently not. But yeah I'd like the numerous issues with my MBP M1 to be fixed once and for all, but I'm not holding my breath on anything I'm experiencing actually being fixed.
And Watch. Battery drain has been wild since 10.4. This morning it drained 16% in one hour straight off the charger just being on my wrist doing nothing. It's unpredictable and was far better under 10.3.
Check out Apple's official releases RSS feed. Somehow MacRumors always seems to post first, but of course this is the official word:
Barometer is still broken.
Edit: seems bigger OS change and apps need a update itself, do not trigger permission request.

I wish they'd clearly say what they fixed. Would stop all the "I hope it will..." posts for a start.
Last time I let my phone update overnight (to 14.4), it did so but then stopped charging - so I woke up with 60% battery.... Not a big deal on the day concerned, but it could have been... The time before it didn't do the update at all.
