The new communications features are the top items on the list, with Contact Posters, Live Voicemail, and FaceTime video messages in the update. NameDrop boosts AirDrop by allowing the sharing of contacts.

New password and passkey sharing with contact groups, an improved AirPlay support for hotel TVs, the background download of AirDropped content over the Internet, and an updated CarPlay SharePlay experience join the list. There's Crossfade support in Apple Music, Apple Music Sing on Apple TV with Continuity Camera support, Apple Music Radio shows on Apple Podcasts, workout routes in Apple Fitness+, and daily crosswords for Apple News+ subscribers.

iPadOS 17 gains Lock Screen customizations similar to iOS, Home Screen widgets, the Health app, eye health in Screen Time, improved Stage Manager and webcam support, and other elements.

The third beta of iOS 17 added full crediting in Apple Music, a new Home splash screen, reactive Home Screen widgets, Weather UI changes, and a new modal shown when you recover photos or multiple images in the Photos app.

Beta 4 introduced a new app drawer for iMessage, a toggle for NameDrop, StandBy Mode changes, and a bunch of other UI alterations.

Beta 5 smoothed the UI animations, added a new graphic to Health's State of Mind category, a minor Check In update, and a change to the Live Voicemail prompt.

Beta 6 added more educational pop-up screens showing "What's new" in apps. The Photos widget included albums, haptic feedback was removed from the mute toggle, weather can be logged in the Health app, and Apple shifted the end call button to the bottom location after a previous change.

AppleInsider and Apple strongly suggest users don't install beta operating systems or other beta software on "mission-critical" or primary devices, as there is the small chance of issues that could result in the loss of data. Testers should instead use secondary or non-essential hardware and ensure they have sufficient backups of their critical data at all times.
