iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 beta 3 to developers. After the presentation of beta 1 on June 5 at WWDC23 (annual developer conference), Apple released – again only to developers – first beta 2 and then beta 3 of iOS 17 and iPadOS 17, preliminary release (previews) of the future operating system for iPhone and iPad.
iPhone 15, all models expected with more powerful batteries
Beta 3 arrives 30 days after WWDC23; it is not clear what the specific innovations of this version are at the moment but most likely Apple is focusing on solving small and large bugs, “refine” the system until the day of the release of the final version arrives.
After the developer-only betas, preview releases (public betas) for beta testers will arrive in July.
The new iOS 17 software features will be available to everyone this fall as a free software update for iPhone Xs and later. iPadOS 17 will also be available this fall as a free software update for iPad (6th generation and later), iPad mini (5th generation and later), iPad Air (3rd generation and later), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2nd generation and later) ), iPad Pro 10.5-inch, and iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation and later).
