Apple is gearing up to launch a minor iOS update, expected to be rolled out by mid-February, as reported by MacRumors.
iOS 17.3.1 on the Horizon
According to MacRumors, devices running iOS 17.3.1 showed activity when accessing MacRumors servers, hinting at an imminent release. Given the considerable gap before iOS 17.4 hits the scene, the company is likely to introduce this interim update to address minor system glitches and patch vulnerabilities.
Timing Consistency
The source points to historical release patterns, citing the launch of iOS 16.3.1 on February 13, 2022, and iOS 15.3.1 on February 10, 2021. Following this historical trend, iOS 17.3.1 is anticipated to be released within the next week or slightly beyond, notes NIX Solutions. If users have encountered issues with iOS 17, there is a chance that this update will address and rectify these concerns.
