Hi All, I’ve created a community to discuss iOS betas. Anyone who loves testing and discussing iOS betas, feel free to join!
minus-square@rarkgrameslink2•1 year agoHey, thanks for creating this community. Can I be the first person on this community to say “I’m something of a developer myself” please? LOL I’m currently running iOS 17, watchOS 10, Sonoma, xCode 15 and iPadOS 17 and so far, everything seems to be working really well.
minus-square@marcarOPMlink2•1 year agoNice! Same here, I’ve pretty much installed every beta available, except for the HomePod ones, which seem to be invite only.
minus-square@rarkgrameslink1•1 year agoI don’t know on those, I don’t own any HomePods. I also steer clear of the AppleTV beta as if that messes up I don’t have a backup device.
minus-square@brcllink1•1 year agoHomePods can be updated. You need to delete the iOS 16 beta profile, unenroll HomePods from beta updates, then re-enroll them. This ended up showing the 17 beta for me. The OG HomePod did require a profile. I found that on betaprofiles.
minus-squareSousalink1•1 year agoAny major differences with the new HomePod updates? I didn’t update mine since I’m not aware of any changes that would make it worth it.
minus-square@rarkgrameslink2•1 year agoNo not really. I’ve never had any major issues with any betas so I’m fairly confident I’ll be ok when I install them.

Same here! Are you worried about bricking your watch?
