iOS 11 will be available in the fall for the general public, with a public beta version available later in the month. A developer beta of iOS 11 is available now.

Apple also announced watchOS 4 for Apple Watch. watchOS 4 will feature a new Siri based watch face that automatically updates based on days events and changes, along with a psychedelic kaleidoscope watch face, and a trio of Toy Story character watch faces as well.

Hi again—
Sorry, forgot to ask one question-So …
what IS the difference between the iOS Beta-
— *Developer* vs *Public* versions? —
( well, other than the obvious, ya know! )
Thanks again!
あ.よ.み.
Actually, iOS 11 will be available to everyone in the summer (before September 22).
Yeah but that will be a beta version in july, not the final product. The final version is scheduled for september as the article says.
Yeah but it’s still a beta version for testing that launches in july, even though it’s public. The final version, recommended for most users, comes until september.
Looks forgettable, I will skip iOS 11 thanks.
Maybe on the iphone, but definitely not on the iPad. There are lots of changes in iOS 11 for ipad, but this article seems to have focused more on the iphone features. Among the new ipad features are a new dock similar to the one seen in macOS on the macs, a new files app, drag and drop functionality, enhanced support for apple pencil (ipad pro models only) and a built in document scanner feature in the notes app. So don’t skip iOS 11 on your ipad if you have one.
Yeah, me too. I have no need for any stupid security updates that will be coming along with iOS 11.
As I said, don’t skip it on ipad. There are lots of useful new features for ipads that are not mentioned in the article, which seems to focus more on iphone.
