Is it any good? How is the stability?

I probably enjoy the new, reworked messages view (with the apps tucked away under a single '+' icon) the most.

There are some bugs (like the screen freaking out for a second when clicking a messaging notification) but nothing too bad. Hopeful that the 2nd beta they just released today will fix some of those issues.

Many seem to be using it to get the airpod beta; not seen any updates on the phone beta itself tho

As said by a few people already, it's been really smooth. IGN 10/10 for a dev beta

shockingly smooth. never had a dev beta go so well!

I’ve been enjoying it! I’ve only had to reboot once - but I think that was more related to low storage than anything else.

I skipped the iOS 17 beta so far. First time in ages that I did. With all the new safety features lately, I prefer my main device to be stable over having the latest and greatest. Which is a huge change for me.

Same for me! I used to tinker around with my devices and enjoy betas, but having a stable environment has become very important for me. Especially, since banking apps - at least in my country - are very strict and won't work on betas because they try to detect jailbroken devices.

fwiw, I've had the best dev beta experience ever, and I've been using dev betas since iOS 4.

iPhone 14 pro, so ymmv
