  The no.1 thing I’m looking forward to is improved autocorrect.

    Yeah it used to be terrible. Now it’s somewhat usable (used it in the beta for a while). It’s still bad if you type in multiple languages though.

      Autocorrect and swipe to type aren’t great in other languages, my phone also has a tendency to switch keyboards randomly so I’ll start typing a message to someone whom I’ve never spoken anything but English to and every word is redlined wrong

  Should also allow the use of iPads as an external monitor for game consoles and the like. I’ve tried it out in beta and it seems to work like a charm so far.

    Only info I can find says no lightning iPads :(

    Yo what? Does the controller stay paired to the console or do you have to pair it to the iPad?

    I hate the idea of having to re-pair controllers.

  I’m looking forward to updating. My one concern is is SideStore will still work with iOS 17. I need my Delta Emulator.

    Apple will need to allow sideloading natively to comply with EU law… so any day now you should be able to sideload any app directly

      I am so waiting for this but there has been no news on that front. Also I’m in the US, but I home they make it available worldwide.

    Altjit doesn’t work on iOS 17 right now. So you might want to wait.

      Are you an alt or a bot?

      Looks like there’s a workaround… faq.altstore.io/how-to-use-altstore/altjit

      Yeah that’s what I’m reading. Hit is t critical for me. But it’s nice to speed up N64 games.

  This StandBy feature sounds like a fantastic way to ensure phones are always in AFU mode and easier to compromise

    The devices are still locked. It’s fine.

      I wish CitizenLab would revisit this topic (or visit it at all, ot sure if they have) about BFU vs AFU mode now. Unless content has CompleteProtection, i believe certain important things can be accessed regardless or lock status if you’ve at least unlocked from boot once…

  Installed all the OS’s RC (release candidates) today; all are very smooth but watchOS 10 (on an 1st generation Apple Watch SE).

  I haven’t noticed anything odd with iOS 17, yet.
