iOS 17 Will Be Available Next Week to the Public

From CNET: By this time next week, you could have iOS 17 on your iPhone. In the midst of Apple's "Wonderlust" event Tuesday, the tech giant announced the public release date of iOS 17, months after unveiling the next version of the iPhone software at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. Apple said in a news release that the iPhone software will be available to the general public on Monday, Sept. 18.

The next iPhone software brings improvements to functions across compatible iPhones, like in Messages. The latest iPhone operating system also brings the new StandBy mode to compatible iPhones, which turns your iPhone into a smart display when charging and in landscape mode -- i.e., when it's horizontal not vertical.

Apple also announced the new iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max and the new Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 at Tuesday's event.
