When Will Apple Release iOS 17.3? [u]

Apple’s confirmed a new iOS 17.3 update and iPhone users are starting to wonder about its release date.

iOS 17.3 is currently in beta testing and the third milestone upgrade for iOS 17 is set to deliver new features and under-the-hood enhancements to compatible iPhone models.

In a bit of a surprise, Apple’s confirmed an official iOS 17.3 release window and the software is set to arrive for iPhone in the near future.

In an announcement outlining the new Black Unity Sport Band for the Apple Watch, the company also announced a new Unity Bloom iPhone and iPad wallpaper for the Lock Screen.

Apple says the wallpaper “will be available next week” and it requires iPhone Xs or later running iOS 17.3 and iPad (6th generation and later), iPad mini (5th generation and later), iPad Air (3rd generation and later), 12.9-inch iPad Pro (2nd generation and later), 10.5-inch iPad Pro, and 11-inch iPad Pro (1st generation and later) running iPadOS 17.3

So while we can’t supply you with an exact day for the iOS 17.3 release date, the software will land sometime during the week of January 22nd.

iOS 17.3 won’t be as big as iOS 17.2, but it will still deliver a batch of new features, bug fixes, and security patches to iOS 17 users.

Right now, the software is carrying collaborative playlists for Apple Music and security enhancements aimed for stolen or lost iPhones.

Once Apple pushes iOS 17.3 to iPhone, the company will more than likely put a new iOS 17.4 update into beta testing. We expect iOS 17.4 to drop in March alongside a new iPad Air 6 and new iPad Pros.
