After the highly anticipated Apple Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2023 took place, many iPhone users were concerned about whether or not they would get the new iOS 17 update. These include users with relatively older phones. Well, there is good news for some and bad news for others. According to Apple, iPhone users with iPhone X or an earlier model (iPhone 8, iPhone 7, etc.) will not get the iOS 17 update. Although the update will be available for iPhone XR users and the models launched after that.

When will iOS 17 be released to the public?

It’s also pertinent to mention here that the first iOS 17 beta is being made available to members of Apple’s Developer Program for testing. However, according to Apple, a public beta of iOS 17 will be released in July.

As expected, a number of new gadgets and upgrades were unveiled at the WWDC event. From cutting-edge operating system upgrades to revolutionary enhancements to AR headsets and watchOS, Apple’s revelations promise to shape the future of the technology industry. The company unveiled new operating systems for iPhone, iPad, Macbook and Watch OS. In addition, Apple also launched Mac-15 inch, Mac Studio, Mac Pro, M2 Ultra chip, Vision Pro Headset and many more.
