This week, Apple released the iOS 17 developer preview version Beta 4 revision and the second public beta version of iOS 17.
The version numbers of these two Beta versions are 21A5291j. It can be said that the functions of the two versions are exactly the same.
This update is mainly to fix bugs and does not add other new features. In other words, the second public beta version is an iOS system version released based on the iOS17 Beta4 revised version.
Apple pushed iOS 17 developer preview Beta 4 (version number 21A5291h) to users on July 26. After analysis of feature comparisons and user experience feedback, no obvious functional changes have been found in the iOS 17 Beta 4 preview and revised versions.
Therefore, we can focus on the feature upgrades and optimizations of the iOS17 Beta 4 preview version!
As early as May, Apple's official website announced "My Photo Stream" It will be offline on July 26, and this feature will no longer be available starting from iOS 17 beta 4.
"My Photo Stream" is a free service. Users can upload photos (up to 1,000 photos) in the last 30 days to the iCloud platform, which can then be used on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac. and PC, and import them directly into the gallery on this device.
When iOS 17 Beta 2 was released, I immediately felt the smooth animation effect of NameDrop. This feature is turned on by default, and it will automatically trigger whenever I bring the two upgraded iPhones close together.
In the Beta 4 version, Apple has improved the NameDrop function and added a new independent switch option. This update makes it easier for users to use the NameDrop feature and customize it according to their personal needs. In this way, users can not only manage their NameDrop lists more flexibly, but also use this feature more effectively to improve work efficiency and convenience. This optimization adjustment will bring a better user experience to users.
Just open the iPhone [Settings]-[General]-[AirDrop] and you will see the new "Put settings closer to each other" switch button.
Users can choose to use NameDrop's interactive features after opening it, or they can choose to turn it off so that they are not disturbed when not needed.
Apple introduced a new feature called "Safe Confirmation" at the WWDC 2023 conference.
After upgrading to the iOS 17 Beta 4 test version, click the " " button in the lower left corner of the Messages App and select "More" to find the new function "Safe Confirmation".
This function allows users to send a "safety notification" message to friends or family through the SMS application. At the same time, this function is linked with Apple Maps. When users arrive at their destination, their friends or family will receive a notification confirming their arrival.
Apple Maps actually has an old version of the sharing function, but "Safe Confirmation" shares the entire itinerary.
After sharing an itinerary, iPhone will keep track of the itinerary. When the system detects a deviation in the travel route, it will prompt you. If the user does not respond within 15 minutes, the system will automatically share location information and other related data with the designated contact.
In iOS 17 Beta 4, "Standby Display" adds a "Only show preview when tapping" switch button.
Open your iPhone settings and go to the standby display options. There, you can enable the "Show preview only on tap" feature. Once enabled, notification previews will be hidden until you tap the screen in standby mode.
In Apple's Message App, click the " " menu button, you will find the camera, photo, audio and other icons in Beta 4, re- Adjustments have been made to be consistent with the system icon.
