Honestly, I am new to iOS updates, at least really actually CARING about them. My first two iPhones were already on the latest version, so I am going into settings and looking, and thinking "I thought apple did these all the same for all devices same time...?"

They “do”. But it’s entirely possible they stagger so it doesn’t overload their systems.

I’m not actually concerned. Just funny cause it’s exactly time for the release according to normal release schedule and there’s surely some who will be expecting the update like NOW now. Gimme. Haha

I guess it is in the wild for some, not all. I figured that being in Nevada, close to Cupertino, I would have first dibs ha.

Its out now. I can see it on my phone also there was a iOS 15.7 released at the same time along with iOS 16
 
I’m on the public etc and my update was below in the Also Available. Updating now!
 
I am downloading it now.
oh, nevermind. it is 15.7 for some reason.
I am in PDT timezone, if anyone is curious. Southwerstern USA.
 
Right here we go. Says 11 minutes to go. No doubt in two hours time it will be saying 12 minutes.

Is there not an option underneath that says iOS 16 is also available?

Not in my case, unfortunately. Now I am stuck installing this one because admittedly this is my first major iOS release... and I am stuck in "preparing update" mode now for a bit.
 
Downloaded the RC Build (20A362) a few days ago and took the Beta Testing profile off of my phone after that.

Does anyone know if people with the RC build will also receive a software update today with the general public or is that not the case?

Since the publicly released software today is identical to that released as the Release Candidate, you will not receive an update if you were already on the Release Candidate.

Anyone know what happens to all the photos that were put into iCloud shared library while it was activated during the beta should one decide to quit the public beta programme and go with the official releases from now on..?
 
All: this thread is only intended to capture the release dates of the various betas and publicly released software. Please keep discussion about when things will/may be released to the speculation thread and substantive comments about the software to the appropriate discussion thread. Thanks!
 
So is RC and official one the same? same features and performance? also when I get the iPhone 14 and do restore from back up ( from a 13 with RC version) will I have any issues ?
