This guy, known to be well informed about Apple products, speak of a "Theatre Mode" in the future beta update of Apple in January.

What do you think this Theatre Mode means ?

10.2.1 isn't even out yet, and they jump to 10.3? That's something I've not seen before. Does anyone know if it happened before?

To bad they would waste their time with a theatre mode when they already have do not disturb and the mute switch for that matter. I would like to see them integrate Apple Pay into Trailers so we could have a fully functioning movie app.

They have had two betas out at the same time as I recall, but for different iOS versions, like iOS 8 and 9. In this case, if this was to hold up, it likely means that iOS 10.2.1 would be publicly released sometime before the 10.3 beta.

I hope they aren't adding yet another mute/silence toggle. There's already the ringer switch, then Do Not Disturb on top of that, which already seems redundant to me. If this is like a DnD+low brightness toggle... ugh, that'd be such cruft.

Well.. 10.2.1 is not even close to being ready for primetime..
Given that it's really mostly just 10.2 with a few bug/security fixes, is there something there that is that seriously broken for some weird reason?

The mute switch is technically a vibrate switch ;)
Dnd is actually silent.

Did they have two betas out at the same time? Or something else?
The former. Curiously the public beta of 9.3 was made available first if I recall correctly, while developers were offered the other(at least in OTA).
