iOS 11 GM Developer and Public

[BreakingKayfabe]

Installed a few hours ago. Working pretty good. Sending a screen record doesn’t scale down and compress anymore like previous betas.

Installed on both my iPhone 7 Plus and 12.9” iPP. Very smooth and fast so far.

Funny mine says 2.05gb
Ip7+

Yeah, on my iPhone, it display 2.05 GB, but it was a lesser size for my iPad Pro. 1.8 GB, if I’m not mistaken.

Get it!

Thank you. I’ve installed it in my iPhone and am currently installing it on my iPad Pro. The phone is running smoothly, but I didn’t expect it to not.

Very smooth and stable. Finally feels like a GM!

STILL rotation issues on iPads! **** Apple get your **** together! I have an iPad Pro that’s supposed to be so good it can replace a pc yet it can’t handle rotating, something that iPads have always done. But after 10 iterations of iOS 11 it hasn’t been addressed at all!

Quite honestly, the rotation issue has gotten MUCH better for me over the last handful of dev betas. I’m using a 1st gen 12.9” iPad Pro.

I’m glad it is better for you. For me on a 10.5, wife’s iPad Air, and work iPad mini 4 it hasn’t changed at all. I just don’t understand why now it is such an issue since iPads have always rotated. I guess the new floating dock? I dunno, but for us on 3 different devices it’s still an issue.

Apple is slowly picking up the bad traits that made me leave Android. Bugs and fragmentation being two of them. This GM build still has glitchy 3D Touch animations and the calculator still lags extremely bad (to test for yourself, press a number then the plus sign repeatedly, i.e. 1+1+1+1....). They are slowly starting to add more devices into the mix, which are going to require different software and have different software features, which is just going to fragment things. It’s not terrible right now, but it’s definitely not the Apple experience that I came to like. Also, the portrait coloring feature that is coming with the iPhone 8 and X. This seems to be a software feature that the iPhone 7 Plus is more than capable of handling, but Apple is choosing to intentionally leave it out for marketing purposes.

Nah, the iPhone X will be the only variant of new iPhone going forward. They knows it’s a big change which is why they did the 8 and 8 Plus as well. That’s why there’s an 8 and 8 Plus even.

Let’s hope you’re right and they don’t start doing what they’ve done with the iPad. Apple never used to release products at random then discontinue them the following year (iPad Pro 9.7, AW series 2). I do like the iPhone X, I just feel like Apple is really starting to take advantage of their fan base with slick marketing. I personally think the reason they came out with the 8 and 8 Plus was to reduce sticker shock on the $1,000+ iPhone. Then they dropped the 128GB option, to force anyone who needs more than 64GB to pay an extra $160 for 256GB. I know I’m kind of complaining, lol, and I know that nobody is “forced” to do anything, but Apple knows they have people hooked and they’re using it to milk us for every penny they can get away with. Especially with taking away the popular storage options. They know that not many people will want to go down in storage size, so they will pay for the next one up, even though they don’t need it.

My guess is the X will replace the 4.7" model next year, and it's big 6.4" screen big brother replaces the 5.5" model.

6.4? I can’t see Apple doing a phone bigger than the Note 8. That phones is really tall.

Just got the update downloaded and installed. Seems to be about the same as the most recent beta...for me at least. May do a restore and clean install of the retail release on 9/19 just to have a clean slate and clear out any leftovers.

Finally someone else confirms I’m not insane with the glitchy 3D Touch issues. Been there since beta 1 and still there in the GM. Gaaaahhh!! C’mon Apple sort it out

 

[TripleOne]

It’s smooth on the iPhone 6 too!
Battery life is great so far on my 7 Plus.

 

[lightning8888]

Looks good here .

 

[Garz]

Did anybody notice this is the same build number as dev beta 10? They just removed the “a” and unlocked the new wallpapers and a couple of other things.

Got it yet? Probably overloaded servers.

I rebooted twice & flushed the cache twice, then managed to get it to download. Just installing on my iPad Mini 4 atm.
