• iOS 17.6 beta 1 is now available to those enrolled in Apples developer program.
• While its currently unclear what iOS 17.6 beta 1 packs, theres a high chance it primarily revolves around bug fixes and optimizations.
• The final iOS 17.6 release could become available to the general public sometime in July.

Apple has seeded iOS 17.6 beta 1 to iPhone users who have joined its developer program. While the company has now shifted its attention to iOS 18, its still polishing last years release before concluding its development. As a result, iOS 17.6 could be a minor update that mainly involves fixing leftover bugs and optimizing the overall performance.

Whats new in iOS 17.6 beta

So far, we havent spotted any significant new changes or features in iOS 17.6 beta 1. This is totally expected as the OS cycle is approaching its end. So, this version may not pack anything beyond under-the-hood bug fixes and security patches. For reference, iOS 16.6 didnt include any major additions last year, either.
