Federico, over on Mastodon:
Based on what I’m reading here, on Reddit, and some Discords, you do NOT want to install iOS 17.3 beta 2 on iPhones. Mine is bricked and I’m going to have to erase and do a full restore.
iPads seem to be updating fine.
As Chance Miller notes, this is the best kind of bug — seemingly random:
There doesn’t appear to be any rhyme or reason as to which iPhone models are affected by this problem. We’ve seen reports from iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 users alike. On the other hand, some people have been able to update with no problem.
Update: It looks like the Back Tap is the culprit.
Update 2: The update has been pulled for now.
