  1. Sorry I do not like those ring tones. If you are in a loud place the phone is inside a purse, you are going to hear it. And if you are waiting for a delivery same. You forgot to mention there is no way to change those softs tones. I want the original Tri- tone back.

  13. Hello everyone, Question? Is there anyone who is having issues with RINGTONES with IOS 17. Meaning when you upload your custom ringtones and they show up under RINGTONES but not show up under the other media like TEXT TONES or NEW VOICEMAIL etc. I just got off the phone with APPLE support and they are working on this issue. I think it may be a “bug” issue. I’m not sure if anyone else experienced this but I was proactive and went right to apple support. Hopefully they can resolve this…not a big deal but slightly annoying.

  16. 9:35 Edit to add- if you were using a custom text tone before updating to iOS 17, Do Not listen to the new text tones as Apple, whether a bug or intentionally, has removed custom text tones from settings and “trying” one of the new tones will remove the custom tone you had set with no straight forward way to get it back… Damn, I’ve had the Super Mario coin as my text tone since, like, the iPhone 4 to make my text notifications distinguishable because I hated being in a group when one person got a text and everyone checked their phones because no one changed the default tones or used the stock tones, so one person thought they had a text and another thought they had a reminder or whatever. But, I actually kind of like Milestone and Passage…

  18. I can’t add Ping My Watch to control centre as it’s not an option but I can’t work out why?
    Some of the features you described were available before iOS 17 (like the captchas bypass in Safari) but still thanks for the video. 👍🏼

  22. I don't like how images on the screen become unclear when I have to zoom out and have to adjust the position, I really hope that there will be a button for turning off this

  26. You are crazy, what a superb informative vlog, thank you
    My favorite though there are few but what got me 😮 is holding the plus icon and launch of photo gallery, also the wallpaper section where special borders are given upon setting.

    FYI – Not just additional text tones, there are some new ringtones as well 🙂

  28. I don’t see the “Ping Apple Watch” option in Settings – Control Center on my iPhone 15 Pro Max running iOS 17.0.2 and I own and use an Apple Watch Ultra.
