Rumor: Apple preparing to release iOS 17.1.1, hone in on bug fixes

You can’t knock a good bug fix/maintenance update.

Apple appears to be internally testing an iOS 17.1.1 update for the iPhone given evidence seen in website analytics logs.

The update is thought to focus heavily on bug fixes as opposed to new features and could include the same fix for Wi-Fi connectivity issues that Apple rolled out in the first iOS 17.2 beta, and perhaps resolve an issue where some iPhones temporarily shut off overnight for users still experiencing that. Apple also promised to fix a BMW wireless charging issue affecting the iPhone 15 lineup in an update later this year, but it remains to be seen if that fix will be included in iOS 17.1.1.

It’s unknown when the update could be released to the public, albeit the rumor mill has suggested that it could go public within the next week or two.

iOS 17.2 remains in beta testing and is expected to be released in December, so iOS 17.1.1 will be a stopgap update. iOS 17.2 includes many new features and changes, including the promised Journal app, the ability for Apple Music subscribers to collaborate on playlists, a Translate option for the Action button on iPhone 15 Pro models, an iMessage Contact Key Verification security option, additional Weather and Clock widgets, and more.

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
