New features of iOS 17.3
iOS 17, last year’s major iPhone update, was released in mid-September. Later in the year, iOS 17.1 and iOS 17.2 were released, and now it’s time for the third major interim update. iOS 17.3 could be released this month. For comparison, last year iOS 16.3 was released on Monday, January 23rd. The test versions – we have now reached iOS 17.3 Beta 3 – already reveal what is new.

1) Stolen device protection
Stolen device protection makes your phone worthless to thieves. Your iPhone has been stolen and does the thief know your passcode? Then that person still doesn’t have access to your most important data and functions. You must gain access using Touch or Face ID. Some functions only work with an hour delay! You can read more details in the following article:

2) Community playlists
You’ll soon be able to create shared playlists with friends and family in the Music app. Each song shows who added it, and you can react to specific songs with emojis. The option should have already been included in iOS 17.2, but was postponed at the last minute. Let’s hope the function doesn’t get stranded within sight of the harbor again.
We expect even more!
The features mentioned are the first, but certainly not the last, of the year. One feature we certainly expect to see in another iOS 17 update is AirPlay for TVs in hotel rooms. And Apple also doesn’t seem to be able to avoid sideloading, which requires alternative app stores to be approved. iOS 18 will also follow later this year with various improvements in the area of AI.
