iOS 17 Set to Launch on Monday, September 18

During its highly anticipated unveiling event earlier today, Apple introduced the latest additions to its product lineup, including the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max, along with the Apple Watch Series 9 and the advanced Apple Watch Ultra 2.

And that's not all! Apple enthusiasts can mark their calendars because the company also revealed the official release date for the highly anticipated iOS 17. After an extensive period of beta testing throughout the summer, iOS 17 is set to be available to the public on Monday, September 18th.

Apple has officially confirmed that iOS 17 will be available as a free over-the-air update for supported iPhones starting from the 2nd generation SE, iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max onwards. Regrettably, this means that older models, such as the iPhone X and earlier, won't be receiving this update.

Unlike some other companies, like Google, Apple takes a different approach to software updates. On the designated release day, in this case, Monday, September 18th, iOS 17 will be accessible to anyone who wishes to upgrade. You won't have to endure the frustrating wait associated with staged rollouts; instead, you can simply check for the update through your device's settings after 10 AM California time, and like magic, it will be available for you to enjoy.
