Is it worth checking out now in your opinions?

I personally haven’t had any app compatibility issues since the beta began. Its biggest issue for me has been keyboard bugginess, but that seems to have mostly been resolved in the latest beta 3 release. I’ve seen years when the beta breaks tons of things, this doesn’t appear to be one of those years.

In terms of overall functionality though, is it worth doing the upgrade now or just waiting for the full release though? Anything of note that’s especially scale-tipping?

It’s just a ton of little quality of life enhancements that add up to a nicer experience. I don’t need to create a list, there are tons of iOS 17 write ups all over the place, but I’m glad I’m on the beta, it’s always fun to watch the builds mature and see little changes as we approach RC in the fall. Being “worth it” is completely subjective, right.

Very true, thought I’d learn about your subjective experience with it so far ^_^ good to hear you’ve been enjoying it so far.

Can’t say I’ll download it if nothing major was done, looking forward to those QOL improvements soon!
