4 Reasons Not to Install iOS 17.0.2 & 11 Reasons You Should

Don't Install iOS 17.0.2 If You're Nervous About Bugs

If you're having an excellent experience on your current version of iOS, and iOS 17.0.2's changes don't blow you away and/or you're nervous about the software potentially hurting your iPhone's performance, you might want to wait.

There's a lot to like about Apple's new software, but the operating system is already causing problems for some iPhone users.

The current list of iOS 17 problems includes some familiar faces: weird battery drain, issues with first and third-party applications, Bluetooth problems, problems with Wi-Fi, issues with cellular data, installation issues, lag, random reboots, and issues with Face ID.

If these issues concern you, you might want to wait for Apple's next version of iOS 17.

The company's confirmed a new iOS 17.1 update and we expect it to arrive in October or November. It's certainly possible we see iOS 17.0.3 roll out before that though.
