The expected new version will also bring security fixes that are very important for users who have not yet updated their smartphones to the latest operating system version. Here are the details…

When will iOS 17.7.1 be released?

The company, which released the RC versions of iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1 updates, also came out with the beta version of iOS 17.7.1. In the release notes of the new update, it is understood that the software will be more security-focused rather than the innovations that will be offered to users.

The release note for the iOS 17.7.1 update is summarized briefly and clearly as follows: “This update provides important security fixes and is recommended for all users.” Although it has not yet been stated what kind of fixes will be available, it is emphasized that the software is “urgent” for users and should be downloaded as soon as possible for a safer mobile experience.

Despite iOS 18.1 coming next week, Apple has not yet made a statement regarding the general availability of 17.7.1. However, it is still estimated that the update will be released next week, that is, by October 28.
