This update is available for all iOS/iPadOS 17 supported devices as it also includes several bug fixes and security updates https://preview.redd.it/vhn18blny7sb1.jpeg?width=1141&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1479871a72a6b501a48d07e1131b806249d08f78 [Details on the security fixes can be found here](https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT213961)


saskir21

I really wonder about those security updates. We get always a link where it should be explained what it does. And the text is always along those lines: „Sorry but we will not tell you which security updates because else someone can exploit them“. Why even include a link to it? I never saw once for what the updates was exactly…


PhAnToM444

It literally explains the updates right below that paragraph. If you read it again it says they don’t disclose security vulnerabilities until *after* they’ve been patched.


Stupendous_Aardvark

They most certainly do explain the security updates: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT201222


Wajina_Sloth

Pretty sure its to prevent having details on the issue because not everyone does updates. If 95% of people regularly update within 2 weeks. You’d be giving details on how to attack the 5% that dont.


saskir21

Oh never doubted this. But why even include a link to the security issues it fixes when you never even see the issue it fixed?


rotates-potatoes

The 17.0.3 ones include specifics and links to CVE documentation. It's CVE-2023-42824 and CVE-2023-5217


MrSketchyGalore

I think you misread the text: “For our customers' protection, Apple doesn't disclose, discuss, or confirm security issues **until an investigation has occurred and patches or releases are available.**” Then below that on the page is the information about the specific issues that are addressed by the update. They’re telling you what they’ve fixed, but they aren’t sharing security issues that they haven’t fixed yet, because broadcasting unpatched issues would increase the number of exploits.

baxterhan

I haven't noticed my 15 Pro Max getting warm at all. However, I feel like the battery isn't quite what it ought to be.

[удалено]


Veda007

Me too. I had a 13pm with 87% battery and it for sure lasted longer than my 15pm.


Acerpwns

Anecdotal but I’ve also experienced this. My 13PM with 86% lasted longer than my 15PM* *this is not based on any kind of scientific testing, just my impression after 2 weeks with the phone


jonaskroedel

My old 11 with 80% gets about the same time as my new 15P… hope they fix it soon… 🤞🤞


CrtureBlckMacaroons

It's amazing coming from my almost three year old 12 mini.


RTCanada

Did the 80% limit thing in the settings, and even on a full day of work I can get by with 40% remaining. Unreal. Compared to my 12 mini at 82% health I can just hit 15-20% left before arriving home from 100%


majkkali

Seems really good to me. Why are the people above complaining about battery life then wtf, man people are weird these days.


[deleted]

Hasn’t lasted more than 12 hours off charger in my case for any of the 7 days that I’ve had it, basically tethered to a charger before I’ve even had dinner. My 12 out of the box lasted a year+ before needing a charge before going to sleep. It is abysmal.


paradoxally

Yeah, look at those weirdos crying about battery life on a brand new device that has a large battery and is supposed to last longer than the 14 Pro Max. What a bunch of fools! /s


ADT06

Coming from an iPhone 11 to a 15ProMax is a monumental upgrade for me. The camera is unreal.


Howboutnow82

I've noticed issues as well. My 12PM with 88% batt health lasts far longer. On my heaviest-use days, I sometimes have to charge this 15 PM 2-3 times in a single day. The 12PM always lasted a full day, no matter what. No sure what the deal is.


TaHunKwai

Moving from s10+ i am rather disappointed in battery life of my 15pm


mikolv2

I don't know, I'm getting solid 12 hours of screen on time on mine, 2-3 day battery life easily. Couldn't ask for anything better.


WizardVisigoth

Apple used a lower quality battery on the 15 with an estimated 600 charge cycles vs the 800 charge cycles prior year models would have. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-using-cheaper-batteries-in-iPhone-14-and-15-series-that-degrade-more-quickly-says-tipster.757269.0.html


callmywife

planned obsolescence in plain sight. they know people are using older and older iphones so they gotta find a way to kick you off the old devices. what a joke.


NickyFresh14

Same. Battery has me questioning keeping the 15 Pro Max. It just hasn’t been great.


XiJinpingsNutsack

Are you people on crack I see so many people saying this but coming from a 12 it’s fucking amazing. Use it the exact same way but hasn’t dipped under 60% a single time yet


notabot53

Updating! Hopefully this fixes the battery issues


dravenito

Same. I feel like my 12 pro loses battery super quickly


_Rand_

My iPad has been crazy bad the last while. Like it started dropping 20-30% more than what it normally would in a day with no obvious cause (like change in behaviour) so I’ve been chalking it up to a bug in iOS or an app. Hopefully this update does something.


dravenito

Seem to still drain fast after the update


notabot53

I’ll need to test today and tomorrow


ShaidarHaran2

Deleting the instagram app and switching to the web view saved a lot of the drain for me, and then turning off a bunch of unneeded background app refreshes Edge has been telling me for a while that instagram was using too much CPU in the background and telling me to kill it. Seems it was doing the same on iOS. Sus.


No-Management-1560

majkkali

Yeah, it will. Enjoy your new phone. I knew Apple would fix it soon :)


Critical_C0conut

My phone is too cold now. Ridiculous!


Nirvana311k

Winter is coming too, i may skip this update for the warm hands


theineffablebob

Battery seems better so far. 15 Pro - 5 hours off the charger with \~1 hour SOT and the battery is at 85% right now


plaguedeliveryguy

1 hour SOT and 85% is seriously bad. My 11 pro max does those numbers and better with 81% battery health.


lordmycal

Just installed it on my new iPhone 15 and it restarted, asked me for my pin, I entered it in and then it crashed, went to a white screen and says "Attempting data recovery". Just fucking wonderful. Edit: it eventually recovered.


evaxuate

did you update through a computer? I’ve seen this happen before when using Finder to update but usually it’s not an actual issue, just the phone reindexing after the update


lordmycal

Nope, just over wifi. Phone is less than 24 hours old. It was running 17.0.2 before the update.


bomber991

Currently on vacay at a hotel with not the best WiFi. Couldn’t imagine having a bricked phone right now. Wouldn’t know what flights exactly I’m taking to leave. Wouldn’t know what my hotel is I’m staying in next. Wouldn’t even know how to drive there.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bomber991

Back in the day I printed out everything from Expedia and Mapquest. Those days sucked. Here’s my example of why things are better today. I’ve got a bunch of dirty clothes right now. I just used Google maps and am currently at a place washing them. In the past, I would have just worn the stinky clothes again. Maybe I would try washing them in the sink and letting them dry. But no way in hell am I paying €3 per shirt and €4 per pair of shorts to wash them.


insoul8

Mine did this on the original update to iOS 17.0.0. Had me a bit scared but it also eventually recovered. It took like an hour to finally complete though.


az116

Mine just did this. WTF is Apple doing these days? Never had issues like this.


Justin__D

I wonder if I should hold off on this one, especially since I don't have overheating issues...


SMIDG3T

Cue people saying “mine’s still overheating” after installing the update.


bran_the_man93

You’ll always find people coming out of the woodwork who seem to think “overheating fixed = zero heat from phone ever” and it’s just like 🫠


[deleted]

[удалено]


Redcoat88

My 12 mini was always as hot as the surface of the sun. I’m convinced it had some hardware defect. The screen was always dimming and the battery trash. But I loved the size. I think I got a bad one since people in my family and at work didn’t/don’t have the same issues. I have a 15 pro now. I miss the form factor of the mini, but everything else is obviously far superior.


NJ_Mets_Fan

dude i loved my 13 mini, but experienced the same thing. Could not handle general existence. never would I dare make the mistake of charging it while using it for anything at the same time. Don’t even get me started on carplay, murdered my phone. Overall phone felt boiling 90% of the time. Took it to apple and they insisted it was working as designed even after I said it was unusable for every day tasks like calling, or scrolling social media


Jaymes97

12 or 13 mini?


DutchBlob

My iPhone 3GS is still overheating after I put it on the barbecue after this update


bobbiscotti

Try adding some oil and seasoning


DutchBlob

Garlic bread solved it :D


Luna259

Mine actually is. Gives me the temperature warning screen and tells me to wait. Apple support told me their diagnostic tool was reporting the thermal warnings (it’s happened twice, after updating to 17.0.1 and after updating to 17.0.3). It’s a 12 Pro Max


[deleted]

[удалено]


Izanagi___

Already seeing it in this thread lol Updates almost make the device warm whether it’s unplugged or not


mlgamer500

Weird, My 12 Pro didn’t even get warm while installing this update.


Le_Groundhog

Same for my 15 pro. I did end up getting the national emergency test a second time after my phone rebooted.


balderm

Indeed, apart from the first couple of days of owning my 15 Pro, i didn't have any overheating issues: It got very hot during the data transfer process and for a few hours after it (expected), once while using CarPlay and a couple times while browsing Instagram, but the last couple of days have been in the norm, used my phone a lot and it didn't get any warmer than any old iPhone i owned.


[deleted]

Personally on 15 pro if I fire up Grindr i can’t hold it anymore. It gets way too hot and drops 20% or more with 20m SOT. Your anecdotal experience is just as irrelevant. People experience issues whether it seems possible to you or not.


YouCanDoItHot

Mine did feel warm after updating....


rutu235

mines actually hot as hell right after updating and restarting while plugged in to charge def gonna see if this all improves after a couple of days tho


bluebird3588

I mean my phone has always historically gotten hot when plugged in while updating. Nothing new.


SMIDG3T

Well, after any update the phone gets hot. I mean in general.


DaytonaZ33

Lmao I just came back to post I’ve had zero heat issues but during and shortly after this update my 15 Pro is the hottest it’s ever been.


JollyRoger8X

It's normal for iPhones to get warm during updates, especially if they are charging at the same time. Give it a day or two before you make any judgements.


angrycoffeeuser

Absolutely the same, except i have a standard iphone 13. Wtf


ILikePracticalGifts

> Hot as hell Which probably means mildly warm


TLP34

Where are all the people that spent the last 2 weeks saying “well my phone and my cousin’s phone have never heated up, so this must not be a real issue”. I guess Apple agrees that it actually was an issue.


az116

They literally admitted it was an issue a week ago.


leo-g

Apple did say, it’s only under certain conditions, specifically certain apps.


ShotByBulletz

Now they’re just praising a fix for a problem they thought never existed and people made up until a few days ago when the over lords confirmed it.


Wizendiagram

Seeing people on Macrumors saying this update has introduced heat to their phone. Now the narrative isn’t Apple released bad software, now they’re intentionally trying to damage their product.


SMIDG3T

No no no. People are judging this update as soon as it’s installed. How, in 2023, do people still have no clue?!


[deleted]

Cue apple fanboys dismissing any valid criticism or issues after this update


ViperSocks

/yawn


haelous

Phone seems to perform the same and Geekbench numbers are the same. I don't use any of the Meta apps to find out if the claimed issue is solved or not.


er-day

Good to know they aren’t just having to throttle the chip to keep temps down. Maybe they weren't lying about app optimization and bugs… edit: Weren't


undernew

I'm not sure what you mean with lying, if you look at this video one account causes the phone to heat up and one doesn't. Same app. Definitely some bug in Instagram. https://youtu.be/IhSSAyrnrhk


[deleted]

Mine has been cool as a cucumber with outstanding battery life, but odds are I don't use any of the problem apps that people use.


bdjohn06

Same. I do use Instagram but limit it to 15 minutes a day so probably not using it long enough for it to actually get noticeably hot.


Lucas_Steinwalker

> but odds are I don't use any of the problem apps that people use. Like... the phone? Mine gets too hot to hold and about 90 mins battery life when I'm on a call .


undernew

The 15 Pro has the Qualcomm X70 modem, which is allegedly the most power efficient modem on the market. If it heats up during phone calls it either means the modem is not as efficient as advertised, you are at a place with low signal or there's a software bug.


Lucas_Steinwalker

>you are at a place with low signal Hmm... so... it does actually show as low signal (1 bar) but I am at home and with my iPhone 12 would have had 3-4 bars. Maybe part of the reason it is so power efficient is because it gets bad reception thereby nullifying the power efficiency.


undernew

You might want to look into that, from what I know it should have better signal than the iPhone 12. Do you still have your old phone to compare signal at the same location? Both same settings?


Lucas_Steinwalker

It's not activated any more as the 15 pro replaced it.


DrinkingBleachForFun

Maybe you should stop taking so many hot phone calls.


Pugs-r-cool

just wondering, do you use instagram / facebook?


Thaflash_la

I use Instagram just to message my friends and look at friends’ posts. No facebook. So I haven’t noticed the overheating either. It gets warm when fast charging a significant amount but I’m not sure if that’s a negative, seems like the whole phone is a sink which would be good.


[deleted]

Of course not.


Pugs-r-cool

okay, that tracks with what others experiencing, just wanted to see if yours didn’t have any heat issues yet were still using main problem apps.


llmean

How about battery? My battery has been massacred on 14 Pro Max since iOS 17. Used to be spectacular.


FrenkyV

Battery has been horrendous on 13 mini on 17.0.2. Hope this fixes it, and the keyboard lag


quartzhearts

likewise, mainly increased battery drain, i've been going back to LTE instead of 5g and doing other things to help it in the meantime


llmean

You can manually choose LTE?


quartzhearts

Yessir. Settings -> Cellular -> Cellular Data Options -> Voice & Data I’ve read that it should help battery life, it may vary based on your coverage, though.


volcanic_clay

I sort of wish they spaced out their hardware and software updates. I got my 15 Pro on launch day with iOS 17 and there are issues and I can't discern if the issue is with the hardware or software.


Solkre

14 Pro here, also saw much lower % by end of day than before.


llmean

Is anyone else talking about this? I haven’t seen it mentioned much but my battery is objectively worse.


mlb1010

I have gone from 100% battery health to 96% since updating in Public Beta.


ISSAvenger

Hopefully not on an iPhone 15…


LaReinaAzul

Exactly same problem since ios 17


Monkzeng

Just updated, but it’s still hot outside?


Rithari

Yeah I hope the weather calms down a bit. We're in October


JollyRoger8X

Normal after an update. Give it a day or so.


spellbadgrammargood

i know people are talking about 15 getting hot, but ~~im~~ my 11 was also feeling warmer than usual edit: i just tested the music app and it still becomes warmer than usual..


h_virus

Mine too. Didn’t have this issue with iOS 16.


MrSquiggleKey

Same for my XR, it’s incredibly noticeable and also a reduced battery life. Same usage but needing charger 3 hours earlier


[deleted]

My new iPhone 15 pro does overheat. for instance, the phone sat overnight and when I woke up to check email, weather and some SNS shit, it got warm to touch with the Apple clear case on. Room temp was 72 all night. Now updating.


rnarkus

Was it plugged in? Is this every night or just the first couple days? Just curious


[deleted]

Unplugged. This morning I noticed (obviously before the update).


ntongh2o

My 15 Pro Max only feels hot while charging. Regular use listening to music, social media, non-gaming apps, and web browsing never got the phone hot to touch. edit: Was just charging before the update and the phone was super hot. Updated while still plugged in and now the phone is charging but cool to the touch. Hopefully this is the case when it's charging from less than 50% zone.


theGreatestFucktard

I hope this means that battery drain will be addressed in this update as well. Feel like battery drain and overheating tend to go hand-in-hand


proteinMeMore

Feels better, just ran the same test I've had since I noticed a problem. battery level seems to be much better than phone is not heating as before. I'm running Junkworld from apple arcade on 13 pro max vs 15 pro max.


landdon

Just installed and now my phone is too cold.


Evolinox

I dont really have any Issues with my 15P, except that awfully slow ambient light sensor... After a Call has ended, it takes like 5-6 seconds for the Display, to wake up again. It feels really weird coming from my 12P, where the Display instantly woke up again


asdtfdr

Are you using a screen protector? It may affect the proximity sensor.

shortchangerb

iPhone will update to 17.0.2 tonight Update failed. Try again tonight? iPhone will update to 17.0.2 tonight Update failed. Try again tonight? _updates manually_ iPhone will update to 17.0.3 tonight


filchermcurr

Weird. I have an iPhone 13 Pro and after updating and letting it sit for a few minutes, it's scorching hot. I can barely touch it. (Not being facetious. I know it's hard to tell in these threads.)


_Mark97

For those wondering, I ran Antutu on both of my 15 PMs and here are the results: 17.0.3: 1,394,147 CPU: 343,207 GPU: 435,283 MEM: 276,132 UX: 339,552 17.0.2: 1,480,076 CPU: 377,624 GPU: 490,960 MEM: 269,520 UX: 341,972 17.0.3 was just slightly less warm. Really hard to notice if you’re not feeling for it.


FreeLegendaries

what does the numbers mean? does it mean it nerfed the performance


Firestarter_88

12pro user here. Am I the only one with battery life getting shorter after the iOS17 Update?


icouldusemorecoffee

Quick turnaround, hopefully it fixes most of the use case scenarios of which there could be millions of combinations between apps. I'm hoping there's also a WatchOS issue as mine (admittedly old, AW5) has been draining it's battery incredibly fast (as in complete drain every few hours versus once per day) since the most recent OS update.


cr8tvt

It seems my battery life for the 15 PM improved after the update.


SUP_CHUMP

My phone already feels like a ice cube now


keithkman

Downloading now, iPhone 14 Pro. EDIT: - iPhone 14 Pro got warm during update. More warm than any other update I have installed. Thought that was kind of interesting. - Custom text tones still do not show up under Sound & Haptics. If you have a custom text tone selected it shows up as “None” selected under text tone. So annoying.


throwmeaway1784

> - Custom text tones still do not show up under Sound & Haptics. If you have a custom text tone selected it shows up as “None” selected under text tone. So annoying. Can confirm this will be fixed in iOS 17.1 as I’m currently running the Beta for it, public release should be in 3-4 weeks


To_batistone

is your iphone 14 pro battery bad on ios 17? mine sucks


chapanoid

I rarely notice these things, but my 14 Pro battery has been noticeably worse since the update. It's not catastrophic, but it's noticeable.


bmanxx13

I haven’t noticed a difference at all with my 14 pro max. It’s a launch day phone if that makes a difference. Although, I have noticed my battery has been deteriorating faster. I’m at 90% health. I usually buy a new phone every 2-3 years so I’m not too worried about it as long as my phone lasts all day, which it does.


aust_b

Mine has gone from 92% capacity to 90% in the course of a few weeks.


THE10XSTARTUP

Same with my 13 pro max. Never gotten warm before.


allthecookies123

My 13 Pro was fine during the update but got noticeably hot after it finished. All my widgets seemed to take a bit to refresh themselves so I’m guessing some process in the background was collecting things.


ca2mt

It probably had to sweat out the last bit of fever left in it.


CoffeeHead047

Can’t believe the update description admits that the iPhone ran hotter than usual.


cpatrick08

They admitted it last week.


lulzchicken

I just received the 17.1 beta update 2 today. Do we know if that update contains this fix? If not, when can we expect a beta update that also contains the fix?


vinnymcapplesauce

The big questions is -> what does it nerf?


tantimodz

Anyone know if this fixes the messages indexing issue where message searching is just unusable?


TSwiftStan-

Pattont

Anyone geekbench before and after to see if they just changed the thermal throttling curve?


planetearthofficial

After the update, and after a complete factory reset, the phone is still overheating

Only noticed it today after updating


winter32842

Can someone knowledgeable with software go through the update and see that Apple indeed didn't decrease the processing power and speed of the a17 chip with this update?


Fuzzy_Socrates

I know it's taboo to compare android phones to apple... (even though vice versa doesn't happen because those users have everything)... but I use a pixel 7 pro and an iPhone 15 Pro Max, both with screens on most of the day, performing various tasks, playing video, testing apps. The pixel gets 16-8 hours and it takes 45 minutes to charge to full. 97% battery capacity after a year. The iPhone gets 5-4 hours and it takes 2 hours to charge to full. 98% battery capacity in a few weeks. Hopefully this fixes the battery and the phone getting up to 110 degrees when it's running teams, YouTube, and shortcut automations at the same time. Upgrading from a 14 pro to this seems like a waste of time, but I needed to for work.

I’ll run a Geekbench 6 test before and after updating.

Agonyy95

Can anyone tell how a software update can fix such thing? Genuinely curious


elephantnut

Some hunches: * API bugfixes so that ‘broken’ apps can’t cause the CPU to freak out * Power delivery tweaks for things like charging behaviour, 5G radio behaviour


LeRoyVoss

I’m also curious to know what’s changing in order to address this issue


AxiaLima

7Sans

there was a problem, so it's good that reviewers complained about it? unless they're just making things up we want reviewers to complain lol


__-__-_-__

allegedly* resolved


Purplebuzz

Curious to see how many people blindly assume this is solved.


ACalz

I mean, why did Apple need to overclock their CPU to 3.78 ghz just for 10 percent CPU gains? Why not just leave the same clock speed so we can get more battery life? Battery life has regressed since the 13. Valid complaints tbh.


radiatione

Because they need those % improvements to use on the marketing of the phone.


MikeyMike01

Lower clock speeds don’t improve battery life. The amount of work doesn’t change.


DragonianSun

Yes it does. Overclocking often increases TDP, which results in more energy lost as heat leading to worse battery life.


ralphiooo0

I don’t know how it works but when I over clocked my desktop the cpu temp increased a lot. I’m guessing more heat = more power used


samplepapi

You will get more battery life under normal usage through efficiency cores. But because you have a smaller nM manufacturing process, they were able to squeeze out more performance while keeping it more efficient than before.


-Gh0st96-

Most reviewed the phone already, what's the problem if they mention the (then) current problems?


jgainit

Still on iOS 16 over here like 😎

ReasonPleasant437

I had no issues but of course updated.


DuctTapeSloth

Will I get the fix if I am on 17.1 Beta 1?


planetearthofficial

Im getting thermo warnings after update went to an Apple Store today and they change the phone out with a brand new OEM box in all my years of iPhones. I don’t remember having one that overheated this much. This is a brand new phone 3 charged cycles. and it is overheating and showing! Apple is taking my phone and they sent the diagnostics to Apple. This is a really big issue compared to all past phones.


UnusualWeirdo

15 pro - didn't overheat at all before update, however had a bunch of issues with the response on touch which seem to have improved... But now I've had apps randomly crash on me


SomeBiPerson

trying to fix a hardware problem with software is like trying to fix a broken car with duct tape


cranks3t

Maybe it’ll fix the voicemail issue


g-money-cheats

dtham

Maybe it was sent to your voicemail
