Has anyone installed the public beta for 17?

I’ve only participated in the public beta once…during Covid. I would love to, but I’m an IT manager and need the phone for real work.

Doesn’t mean that I don’t have that “ itch” though. 😂

Not tried a beta for a long time. Need banking apps etc to work without problems. Anyone have any feedback how the betas are so far ?

If it’s relatively stable I might consider trying it !

Hello, been using the beta since the first one. Banking apps haven’t been an issue since beta 1 and now that we are pretty much one build away from the RC, it’s very stable.

There should be minimal risk. It’s a lot less buggy and my phone has stayed fairly cool. Just make sure to backup if you decide to update.

I've always used developer or public betas and never had an issue with any of my work apps.

Yes and it’s very stable. I don’t know how much tolerance you may have for issues, but iOS 17 is in its final stages so it’s very stable now.
