Heh Apple stopped signing the update, this whole process has been embarrassing for them.

Great assumption, 9to5Mac released a new article that confirms these animoji will animate to your voice as well as your face. Really looking forward to it.
Pig Animoji spam all day long! I'm quite sad this will be iMessage-exclusive, it's basically dead here. They'll probably add Face API in iOS 12 for third party apps but meh. Guess I'll try to convince some iPhone buddies to switch; Apple Cash etc might help when ever it launches over here

Switched from Android (OPO) last year and am digging it wholeheartedly, but I've one huge pet peeve: searching iMessage is so brutal. Does iOS 11 return more than one result per person and/or go back a few days yet, albeit in beta? I figure with Cloud sync they've gotta be looking at it.
Other changes sound nice or alright, but that would be a winner for me.

It's been brutal for the past ten years. You might as well delete everything in iMessage that's older than a month because no way in hell you can find what you need going back further anyway.
It's the GM.
WTF.
Also, the virtual Home button in the AssistiveTouch menu does nothing on the Lock Screen while the device is still locked, rather than bring up the passcode prompt like a Home button press should. Sucks because I use it if my fingers are dirty or sweaty so I don't shit up my physical Home button.

3D touch on my iPhone 6s stutters on this GM.
That's been a problem with all the 3D Touch iPhones throughout the beta process. Guess they decided it's good enough to ship for now.
Touch, simply touch, on my iPhone 6 has randomly decided to be unresponsive for about an hour at a time during the entire beta process.
My 6 Plus was unresponsive on the Home screen after completing the GM update setup (enter your Apple ID password, etc) for about 20 seconds. I'm chalking it up to background processes after a fresh upgrade. It has not been on the betas.
Animations are noticeably worse so far on iPhone 6 Plus though.

And they call this GM? LOL
Apple has been consistently dropping balls....well, the only good product they put out recently is their 27inch iMac this year.
These new iPhones seem pretty good to me. *shrug*

Amazon.com (and some other sites) has been very laggy for me in Safari since 10.3 and the 11 GM hasn't changed that. Anyone else experience this?
No problems on my 7.

It still integrates very poorly. It just operates as a pop up inside Files (as do all other providers, Google Drive, One Drive, Box). Its all very janky.

Thats means its not integrated. You on the GM? And updated the app?

Yes to both.
Portraight light is explicitly described as 8+ / X feature on their site. Probably related to the neural engine in the A11.

Between Apple and Intel, I'm starting to feel like fixed function hardware acceleration is simply a way to market new features while causing planned obsolescence.

Had to restart my phone. My control centre and Notification Centre is not working. I am on iOS 11 GM
If you're updating straight from beta to GM it's generally recommended to do a backup and restore afterward. Bugs can linger from the beta builds otherwise.
I don't quite get this. Do you mean that the non-Beta is out before the official release date?
Yes, the final build goes out to developers a bit early so they can build and test their apps against it (and get any necessary updates finished and shipped) before it rolls out to the general public.
Oh, yeah... Sorry, I badly phrased my question (literally only on my first cup of coffee of the day).
I meant, is the non-Beta out on the non-Beta track before the official release date? Essentially, did Apple break the street date of the official iOS release?
I'm guessing not (because that's silly), but the post I was replying to didn't specify GM or "for Beta participants and developers", just that iOS 11 was out.

I might have to do this for various reasons.
I'm never doing a summer beta season again, fuck this

Does anyone else not have a clear button for notifications from the current day? It appears for every other day but any notifications from the current day I have to manually clear since no clear button is present.
It doesn't seem to be integrated. The same old modal window appears, even though the update notes say it works with the Files app now.

has calmed down a bit.
I didn't do the beta and I'm updating to the GM.... Should I wipe my phone? What is the recommendation for big jumps in the OS like this? I really don't want to start over with so many apps and log in again.
OTA update is fine if you're doing it using the dev profile. Otherwise just update in place in iTunes. No need to wipe.

I've read enough bad experiences, and High Sierra adds so few features, that I think I may wait for the .0.1 update to upgrade.
