Are you ready to upgrade to iOS 17? The latest version of iOS is packed with new features and improvements, including a redesigned lock screen, new ways to customize your iPhone, and more powerful performance. But how do you install iOS 17 on your iPhone?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. In this article, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of installing iOS 17 on your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But before we get started, let’s go over the major upgrades or features of iOS 17. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You’ll need a Wi-Fi connection and a compatible iPhone. Here’s a complete list of iPhones that are iOS 17 compatible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While exploring all of the new features of iOS 17 can be exciting, you should take a few precautions before updating to the new operating system. Back up your iPhone before updating to ensure that all of your personal and phone data is safe. This also gives you the option to revert to iOS 16 if you discover that iOS 17 isn’t for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If your iPhone is connected to power and Wi-Fi and the default settings are enabled, it will back up your data on a regular basis during sleep hours. However, if the automatic backup feature is turned off, you can manually backup your device by going to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup and then clicking Back Up Now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you don’t have iCloud Backup set up automatically, make a manual backup of your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can also use Finder on a Mac computer to back up your iPhone. Connect your iPhone to your computer, launch Finder, select your device, and then back up your data. Apple also suggests archiving your backup to prevent it from being overwritten by other backups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To make the download and installation process go as smoothly as possible, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When you turn your iPhone on its side while charging, StandBy provides a new full-screen experience with glanceable information designed to be viewed from a distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Apple, StandBy is ideal for a desk, nightstand, or kitchen counter, and it can be customized to display a variety of clock styles, favorite photos, or widgets, such as Smart Stacks, which surface the right widgets at the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Full-screen Live Activities, Siri results, incoming calls, and larger notifications are also displayed by StandBy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AirDrop makes sharing with friends, family, and colleagues easier than ever. NameDrop, a new AirDrop feature, allows users to exchange contact information, including their Contact Poster<\/a>, by simply bringing their iPhones together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Users can also use the same gesture to share content or launch SharePlay to listen to music, watch a movie, or play a game while in close proximity. AirDrop will also add the ability to continue transfers over the internet when a user moves out of AirDrop range later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By leveraging a powerful transformer-based language model (iPhone 12 and later), improved autocorrect accuracy makes typing even easier. Widgets have been updated to be more informative and interactive. You can now move them around on your home screen to create a more personalized experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Safari gets a makeover, including a new tab bar design, a new start page, and extension support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This allows you to create a custom screen that others will see when you call them. When you make a phone call, the person on the other end sees your Contact Poster<\/a> on their screen. You can find out how to add or modify your photo and poster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your friend doesn’t answer the phone, you can now leave a voice or video message. You can use hand gestures to make fun things like hearts, confetti, and fireworks appear on the screen while on a FaceTime call. You can also switch between your iPhone and your Apple TV during a FaceTime call. It’s similar to passing a call from one device to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The iOS 17 update size varies slightly between iPhone models, but if you are upgrading from iOS 16.6.1 to iOS 17, the update size is around 3.1GB. If you are upgrading from an earlier version of iOS, the iOS 17 update will be larger and take longer to download.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The time it takes to download the iOS 17 update package depends on your internet speed; mine took 5 minutes with a 100 Mbps connection. However, once you have downloaded the update, iOS 17 should only take about 10\u201315 minutes to install on your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n#3. Improved Keyboard<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Easier autocorrect editing highlights corrected words temporarily and allows you to return to what you originally typed with a single tap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n#4. Redesigned Widgets <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
