The news was originally reported by 9to5Mac, which stated that a source reported that Apple dropped iOS 17.5.2 for iOS 17.6.

We now know that the app will include a new catch-up feature for users who purchased Major League Soccer season passes. This feature will allow viewers to catch up on games by providing a series of highlights for latecomers.

While it is impossible to speculate on other features that will be included in the new update, the renaming to iOS 17.6 indicates that there may be more than bug fixes and Catch Up.

For now, we will have to wait until release to see what changes Apple has in store, but hopefully the photo bug seen in iOS 17.5 will not be repeated.
