When will iOS 17.5 beta be updated?

Apple released the new update of 17.4.1 a few weeks after releasing iOS 17.4 to all iOS users. The iOS 17.4 update is a big one, with many new changes aimed at the App Store and developers.

However, usually Apple releases a new beta version immediately after releasing a new version of iOS for iPhone, but this time we have yet to receive any action from the game publisher.

It is expected that Apple will release iOS 17.5 beta 1 to developers in early April

According to the roadmap, Apple usually releases a beta version of an upcoming update after releasing the official iOS version to all users. About a week after releasing new firmware, Apple decentralizes older versions, preventing users from returning to previous versions of iOS.

And iOS 17.4 was officially launched by Apple on March 5, since then it has been three weeks since Apple released the first beta version of iOS 17.5.

Apple does not stick to the schedule it has created for its iOS update cycle, and missed deadlines are quite rare these days. However, this is not impossible, as Apple is probably busy developing the new version and will prepare features for the next major release.

It's possible the company is busy with the iOS 17.4 update for iPhone, which has brought significant and controversial changes to the App Store's developers.

Apple has released iOS 17.4 in the European Union, allowing users to install apps from outside the App Store on iPhone. Additionally, the update also allows users to install third-party app stores. It appears that the company is still filling in the loopholes in a way that complies with European Union regulations.

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said that Apple will complete development of iOS 17.5 beta 1 in the first week of April, which means there is a high possibility that the version will be released that same week.

However, the company can also decide to release the update a week later or whenever they deem appropriate. It is expected that the update will be available next week as the company has delayed the release by more than three weeks.
