In just a week from now, iPhone users will have the opportunity to update their devices to iOS 17. During Apple’s “Amazing” event on Tuesday, the company announced the release date for the general public, months after introducing the next version of the iPhone software at its International Developer Conference in June. Apple stated in a press release that the iOS 17 update will be accessible to the public on Monday, September 18.
The forthcoming iPhone update comes with several functional changes, particularly in the Messages app. Additionally, it includes the StandBy feature, exclusively compatible with certain iPhone models.
