Nothing says that 11.4 can’t come out publicly after iOS 12 is released to developers. iOS 8.4 came out on June 30, 2015, several weeks after iOS 9 was released to developers.
Once it was clear Apple was releasing iWork’s and GarageBand updates today, the writing was on the wall for no 11.3, beta or otherwise. They almost never release iOS updates on the same dates as other large software upgrades. Probably taxes their delivery infrastructure too much..
11.4 sounds kind of boring like it's all about ClassKit. Like 8.4 was about Music, but more niche. I hope I'm wrong. But at the same time, I hope they're focusing on making iOS 12 a good release.
As for 11.3 beta 6, I have seen RAM issues, that's why I want final, it ejected all of my apps from memory. I want the stable release or at least a beta with the debugging code turned off.

11.x has been boring in general (for phone, not iPad). iOS 12 now seems like fixes over any new UI changes too. Too early to start an iOS 13 thread?
That’s what I read too. Apple is looking to fix the issues BEFORE adding any new features in iOS 12. So where is iOS 13?
Is this for real? I have a hard time believing Apple is making so many low-level changes for iOS 11.3.
Usually low level changes like this are reserved for major releases like 12.0, not a point release. Of course, I could be wrong; it feels like they are making more changes in point releases than they used to.
Anyone think iOS 11.4 will be heavily "education-focused"

It’s a specialty update like 8.4. Apple music. One feature and that’s it.Anyone think iOS 11.4 will be heavily "education-focused"
usually, the .3 release between mid to end march. This year seems to take longer than usual to finally comes out. 11.3 is on beta for 2 months now..
That said, you can safely install the beta if you are impatient to install it. At this stage, there's no real issue and feels like a GM to me.

There are annoying issues regarding the Bluetooth headphone. Specifically, iOS cannot handle the in-line control of certain models of Bluetooth headphones. Starting the playback with such devices connected is much more difficult than usual. I have determined that iOS 11.3 beta 6 has such issue while iOS 11.2.6 does not have. Unfortunately downgrade is too costly for me.
Yeah okay. Apple employees have to sign a dozen contracts and NDAs. Any leak is an immediate offense and breach of contract. Plus on the hook for all damages provided in the NDA.
I would update to b6 but the long list of remaining issues is filled with nightmare fuel:
- attention awareness broken for certain things
- Messages in iCloud being funky
- Shared web credentials error (I use this 24/7 in Safari and apps)
+
Features like AirPlay 2 and ATV home app integration removed. The only fancy feature left is the battery health one which doesn‘t affect my iPhone X anyways.
What do you mean too costly? I’m on the beta and don’t really notice much difference.
