1.17.1 version was released before iOS 13.5, but we don’t see any major issues after SDK update, which means we had luck and Apple did not break anything important there since 13.4

Thanks @mykola-mokhnach . Hoping that it won’t impact anything as the major changes of iOS 13.5 has covid19 tracking & notification API’s implementation.
