    iOS 17.0.1 is out now.

    I’ve got the update on my iPhone 12 Mini. Here’s the full patch notes; they’re short.

    This update provides bug fixes and important security updates for iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models.

    For information on the security content of Apple software updates, please visit this website: https://support.apple.com/kb/HT201222

    We’re not seeing the update on our iPhone 15 review devices just yet, but we’re planning to install it on those as soon as we can. Hopefully the patch fixes the seemingly-broken battery charging setting that’s supposed to halt charging past 80 percent.

    Ubisoft just sneakily announced The Division 3.

    The company made the news in a blog post about the appointment of Julian Gerighty to head up The Division’s brand. Gerighty will move into the role after Ubisoft ships Star Wars: Outlaws in 2024 — he’s serving as creative director on that game.

    Widget spinner.

    Christian Selig, the creator of the now-shuttered Apollo app for Reddit, has a devious new widget for his Pixel Pals app. And he says that it’s the “smallest hint of the fun to come.”

    It’s battery cycle season, I guess.

    Apple is adding battery cycle counts to the iPhone 15 series, and now Android expert Mishaal Rahman reports that Android 14’s QPR1 (Quarterly Platform Release) beta adds a cycle count to Android’s settings. You should scan through his whole thread of interesting updates that are in the beta, including a new “repair mode” feature.
