The beta version, known for its early access to upcoming features and other improvements, was awaited by the developers. However, shortly after installation, several users found themselves stuck in a boot loop, where the device continuously tried to reboot without success.
Apple acknowledged the issue and took immediate steps to prevent additional users from encountering the issue. It temporarily halted the distribution of iOS 17.3 Beta 2 and launched an investigation into the root cause of the boot loop.
Some reports suggest that the iOS 17.3 boot loop bug may be related to the Back Tap setting. A log shared by a developer, Guilherme Rambo, that a certain Back Tap function triggers the boot loop, which ultimately causes the iPhone to crash.
