That version of the beta will likely have ironed out the worst of the problems, and though you may still encounter issues, they probably won't be as severe - though, as with any beta, that's always a risk, which is why betas shouldn't be installed on your daily driver devices.


If you're keen on testing out iOS 17 but don't want to take the risk of jumping in feet first, you should wait for the iOS 17 public beta to be released. One severe bug could render your phone difficult or impossible to use until Apple rolls out a fix, and depending on the problem and the priority it gets, that could take days at best. However, if you only own one iPhone that's used to make calls and manage your daily life, you're taking a big risk by installing the iOS 17 developer beta.

If you own more than one iPhone, then installing iOS 17 won't be a big issue: you'll simply need to install it on the device that you don't use on a daily basis.
