The company is tight-lipped, but past releases show a pattern.
Apple announced iOS 17 at its June keynote event, and the next iteration of the operating system is expected to include new features like Standby mode and improvements to apps like Messages when it’s released to the general public. But so far the tech giant has only said the update will be released in the fall, which isn’t very helpful.
If we look at past Apple events in September and earlier iOS releases though, a pattern emerges to show we should expect Apple to release iOS 17 a few days after this year’s September event.
I reached out to Apple about when it planned on holding its September event and when it was planning to release iOS 17 and the company didn’t respond. But here’s when I think Apple will release iOS 17 based on what I see in my crystal ball.When is Apple’s September event?
Well, it’s… in September. That’s as much as we know right now. Apple is pretty good about keeping secrets, and it hasn’t given a specific date for the event yet. But Bloomberg’s tech reporter Mark Gurman expects the event to be held on either Sept. 12 or 13, and I trust Gurman. What makes you think iOS 17 will come out shortly after the event?
Apple might be secretive, but it’s also a little predictable.
