I hope things are going fine for you on Beta 1... 🥹

iOS 17 beta 1 has been better for me than iOS 16/ beta on 14 pro max here

[BackupBAGChannel]

The one bug I’ve experienced the most is the music bug. Music has stopped playing on several occasions. Fantastic information Brandon. 👍🏻

1:02 The walking icon on the contacts widget has been there since al least iOS 15.

Nice Bandwerk band! I was gonna get that one but ended up purchasing the other limited band from them. Enjoy and thanks for your comprehensive updates!

Apple should implement a write feedback icon into all their system apps, so we can conveniently right feedback messages to them. You’d click a feedback button in top right corner, feedback will trigger and screenshot part of screen or app you’re in, you can write down your notes, and then send it to Apple.

The unlocking watch with iphone in the dynamic island has been there since the start of ios 16

Battery life on the 13 Pro has been great and screen idle time is kept at a minimum. Playing music from Apple Music is really laggy and those random pauses happen very frequently.
Face ID lock on incognito tabs doesn't work when switching apps via the app switcher. But overall the performance has been great.
iPadOS 17 has a weird bug where the wallpaper freezes mid-rotation, sometimes entirely upside-down.
And as always, thanks for a great video Brandon!

0:58 This was an iOS 16 Feature, still pretty cool though! Keep up the good work!

The crazy thing is I’ve been using iOS 17 Developer beta 1 since launch and have had no crashes or battery drain on my iPhone 14 Pro 256 GB on Verizon

[tATuCentral]

I’m also having horrible battery life issues, but mine seems to come from YouTube. Last 10 days it’s had over 40 hours of background activity. I’m wondering if things aren’t getting like suspended when they’re closed like they’re supposed to.

[TechOut]

I use Spark everywhere i deleted stock mail. Haven't noticed any issues with Spark. Maybe battery drain is higher than normal but if so it's not enough to where i have noticed.

[antonmarashaj]

The Best update so far with all the features!

[colandabrown]

Hello Brandon I pray all is well with you and your family Thank you for another wonderful, amazing, Blessing video. We truly appreciate everything you do. You are so amazing you are everything you are great or what you do. You deserve a big blessing.

How is it on iPhone 13 thinking on updating to IOS 17 is it worth it?

[azharuddinmdbayazid]

Love your videos!!
How can I get the iPhone wallpaper that was there at the beginning of the video.

[kevinl]

I wasn't able to use safari with the beta and the battery life was horrible. I mean, I expected this, but I went back to 16.5

[AnalogCyan]

I find it interesting how wildly people's experiences on Apple betas seem to be. For every beta I've participated in, I've had minimal issues, but some people seem to have issues that make their devices unusable. Guess it depends on your specific setup and what apps you use.

[commentwar]

not sure if this is a bug but somehow my airprint doesn't detect any devices anymore during this update...

3:42 lol your worried giggle reminds me of when they were demoing the FaceID on stage 😂
