If you’re looking for a less buggy beta than the developer betas, the iPadOS 17 Public Beta is now available. Over the past month, Apple has published four developer betas, not counting the most recent beta re-release. This means Apple has successfully patched the vast majority of its issues in the past month. This means that the iPadOS 17 Public Beta should function reliably.

Among the many enhancements included in iPadOS 17 is the long-awaited ability to customize the lock screen, which was previously only seen in iOS 16. And there are many extras included that improve the functionality even further.

This autumn, alongside the new iPhone lineup, Apple will release iPadOS 17. In the meanwhile, a number of beta versions of iPadOS 17 will roll out with various updates and additions. If you don’t feel like dealing with a large number of bugs at the start of any beta, the public beta is a decent option. The developer beta stage is over, thank goodness.
