Once the final version is available, installing iOS 17 will be simple. Go to General >

Software Update in the Settings app on your iPhone to check for updates, and iOS

[{"selector":"#anim-99badb2c-f16d-48e3-a6d0-b87b05e7cf16","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c2546aa9-3511-44bb-8b32-6e51b99e291a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

will walk you through the installation process. Simply adhere to the directions,

[{"selector":"#anim-2a0b8e2e-7f62-4887-a9f9-679e2155375a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-30faef3b-6a42-49ac-a039-58b8352b8137 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

which we outline in our guide to iOS updating. Additionally, if you've enabled

[{"selector":"#anim-2f538b00-aebc-4f75-b3d5-34bad4205899","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6c542b65-a892-4b19-9250-bb834d6cf75f [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Automatic Updates—which you can do from the same screen—it will be even simpler.

[{"selector":"#anim-d7764d82-5b9f-4e66-aa15-18bfceed17f6","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0769dc5b-9799-4e52-878d-da49573e61c4 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

However, you may also download beta versions of iOS 17 both before and after its

[{"selector":"#anim-eadb57ff-6e48-47c2-9eb1-9590643cc679","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f3c8e5cc-59f9-4670-876e-fea3adf1ce35 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

But now that the well has run dry, lovers of Samsung phones must carefully choose which of the flagship

[{"selector":"#anim-dbe74512-d20c-4991-82f6-ad9019f2f3a5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a9e461c3-cb43-48d7-9347-65bdf936921a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]
