iOS 11.x.x Release Speculation Thread

[Banglazed]

I also doubt a final release next week. A good indication is that the "full" iOS beta has yet to be shipped to the banks.

I was kind of expecting that since I believe there might be one more beta next week and then final a week after. Then 11.3 beta either same day as 11.2.5 official or 1-3 days after

I also wonder when will the final release of 11.2.x be before going on 11.3?

Im om 11.2.1 and it works good, nothing to complain about.. i dont want to update to 11.2.2 if there soon onother updatezz

Yes, possibly above, you'll have countless updates

My bet is the final release will be on Monday the 22nd and then 11.3 beta 1 will be on the 23rd.

Probably realised that no matter how many point updates there are iOS 11 is still a pile of rubbish so doesn’t wanna waste his time. Maybe he’ll pop up again with iOS 12 (if that’s any better).

He’s been baffled by releases that he can’t even predict the next one anymore

Well, 11.2.2 was "predicted" without issues it seems.

Something was released now. Public beta?

Public beta was released yesterday. This is strange, maybe a HomePod update for testing?

Quite possible another beta or GM/RC

Less likely Monday, as that is a federal holiday here in the US. But, as we’ve seen, nothing can be ruled out. I’d look at Tuesday though.

Do we expect a 11.2.3 and .4 before the .5 finally will be publicly released or do you guys think the next released update will no matter what be .5 ?

@sunny2k1, @Madscotsman or @Mlrollin91 you guys any thoughts ?

Its probable. Its so hard to know. Being that 11.2.5 is still a beta build number, its definitely possible a 11.2.3 might come out first.

 

[sunny2k1]

Only if there’s another huge security issue to fix. Else I highly doubt another release prior iOS 11.2.5

 

[Tmelon]

11.2.5 will probably see a public release a week from tomorrow, so there's probably no time for 11.2.3 or 11.2.4 unless there's an emergency bug that needs fixed.

 

[mariusignorello]

Probably some kind of minor public release this week (vague, I know) and possibly something major (11.3?). We haven't gotten anything major in a while. I've got a feeling this is the week.

What happened to 11.3? We had 10.3 this time of the year last year.

Nobody knows. Seems that Apple follows a different strategy this year

 

[0014]

11.3 is probably delayed so they can introduce the battery information they promised.

Yep we need that + User choose Performance / Battery option.

No we didn’t. 1/26/17.

Except Apple wont be closed today. Most are working today other than as you said federal agencies. We did get an update on MLK day before as I recall. However, since we just got beta 5 on Thursday they may push it out another day or so.

 

[dannyyankou]

Virtually zero chance of a new beta today.
