CTOnews.com reported on October 4 that Apple today launched a developer preview version of iOS / iPadOS 17.1 Beta 2 update (build number: 21B5056e) to iPhone and iPad users, six days after the last release.

Standby display options Apple has added a new "display" section to the standby section of the Settings application, which contains some new custom options. The display screen can be set to turn off automatically or never after 20 seconds.

The switch for the existing night mode function (which changes to a red hue and darkens the screen) has also been changed to the display section, as well as the "Motion Wake up" switch. The "display" section also replaces the "always on" switch that previously restricted the display to be turned off intelligently.

Ringtones and SMS ringtones iOS 17.1 Beta 1 removed more than 20 ringtones and SMS ringtones added in the iOS 17 release, but have been reintroduced in the latest Beta 2.

80% charging limit fixed in the iPhone 15 / Pro series models, Apple added a switch to prevent the device from charging more than 80% to keep the battery healthy for longer. In previous beta releases, iPhone ignored this setting and charged more than 80%, but this did not happen again after the Beta 2 update.

The other improvements are in iOS 17.1, the one-handed operation mode Reachability is optimized for the smart island model. According to the changes found by Reddit user throwmeaway1784, the top will show black when Reachability is turned on, thus hiding the middle "pill" digging holes.

In addition, the whistleblower Steve Moser found that the code in the iOS / iPadOS 17.1 developer preview version of Beta 2 refers to the "Apple Pencil" USB-C charging feature, which is not available in either of Apple's current "Apple Pencil" models, suggesting that a new stylus will be launched.

IOS 17.1 added options to collect songs, albums, playlists, artists, etc., and added favorites to the library and used to provide suggestions. You can use the "playing" widget to collect from the lock screen, and when you start the playlist, users will now see song suggestions.

AirDrop transfers can be done over the Internet, so there is no need to keep close, and Apple Watch running watchOS 10.1can now share NameDrop contacts with iPhone running iOS 17.1.
