It would seem that quite recently Apple held a presentation where it introduced a new operating system , and the third beta version of iOS 17 is already available . Cupertino adhere to the schedule and are in no hurry, releasing updates every two weeks: this indicates that the developers are serious about the update, so closer to the public version, we will probably get something better than iOS 16 with all the accompanying sores. At a minimum, now you can safely use the new iOS without worrying about bugs in the design and crashes in applications. Here’s what ‘s new in iOS 17 and how to install it right now.
Unlike iOS 16 beta updates , whose cycle is nearing its logical conclusion, iOS 17 is only gaining momentum, so new features in it will appear like mushrooms after rain, and some may even go unnoticed.
What’s new in iOS 17 beta 3
It may seem that the third beta version of iOS 17 does not contain innovations at a cursory glance. But this is not so: here are a few improvements that have already been found.
- The menu with recently deleted photos has been changed. Now the “Delete” and “Restore” buttons are hidden under the icon with three dots. If there is a Live Photo among the deleted pictures, you can click Save as Video.
- The Emotion and Mood Records app has received a UI change and a new color scheme for different emotions . Now you can enable reminders to track your mood.
- Apple Music now displays more comprehensive track information , including songwriters, composers, and those involved in the development of that song.
- The Home application has changed : the splash screen at the entrance displays all the innovations, and you can also quickly change the color of the light bulb using the panel below.
The list of fixed bugs is still a secret, although there is a lot of work to be done – you remember how many bugs there were in the first beta . Users on the forums are already reporting that the system behaves much better. Here’s what you can say about the update now.
