    I'm still on 10.3.3 on an iphone 7 plus. I'm assuming 11.3 is now a stable version battery and performance wise?

    if i upgrade, will it immediatley jump to 11.3 or will i have to install 11 and each subsequent version until 11.3?

    It will always upgrade you to the latest available version that your iPhone can run, in this case 11.3.

    How is everyone finding 11.4 speed wise. I was on the beta program but when i found how impressively fast/smooth 11.3 GM was i deleted the profile incase 11.4 beta's would slow the phone down.

    they'd want to get tvos beat sorted out pretty fast.
    Can't use my bloody airpods as there's a bug in tvos where you can't control the airpod volume and its stuck at 50%. Thought they'd fix it in beta 2 but still no joy. Its goddamn annoying since I now have to use the shield for watching all my stuff.

    This is why you don't install the iOS beta's on your main phone ;)

    Had iOS betas on phones for loads of versions without problems.

    Only ever have one phone though. Don't think many people have spare phones and main phones.

    11.3.1 is out , looks like a bug fix

    It’s pre release software, it’s full of bugs. That’s the whole point!

    I understand what betas are thank you.

    My point is that I have installed them before on my phone (I only ever have one) and not had major issues. The bugs that are there have not been fatal or made the phone unusable.

    Official release of iOS 11.4 with iMessage in the Cloud (finally!) and Airplay 2 (ditto!) is out now.

    So login to icloud.com to send and view messages, ya? And they sync across phone and mac etc?

    They will sync across devices, yes (meaning you don't have to delete a message individually from each device and the same data doesn't get backed up several times), but you can't send or view them on iCloud.com. I assume that isn't possible without breaking end-to-end encryption. Btw to enable syncing you have to have two-factor authentication enabled. Two-step verification isn't enough.

    It's a very welcome feature and should make restoring as a new phone a lot less painful, especially considering the growing instances of corrupted backups.

    installed last night, was a big download.

    Installed quickly, no issues on iPhone X.

    Face ID appears to be a little bit snappier, when it works.

    surely it can be restored via itunes?

    If not, get on to apple for a replacement.
