First comes the major update, then the follow-up bug fixes via the minor updates to smooth things out.

Apple on Monday released both its iOS 17.5.1 and iPadOS 17.5.1 patches for its mobile operating systems. Per the release notes, the updates offer the following fixes and changes while largely focusing on the reappearing images/Photos bug:

“This update provides important bug fixes and addresses a rare issue where photos that experienced database corruption could reappear in the Photos library even if they were deleted.”
