[Nikhil72]

[TL24]

I’m on 12.1 B5, why is iOS 12 showing up for me instead? This is after deleting the beta profile and restarting my XS.

 

[tosbsas]

Same here

 

[dan9700]

same getting iOS 12 hmmmmm

 

[Mlrollin91]

Not seeing anything on all devices, OTA or iTunes. All currently on 12.0.1. I keep getting an error when checking for updates.

 

[Davelfc]

In UK and installing now.

 

[AMTYVLE]

My AT&T iPhone has the 12.1 update. My iPhone on Verizon and my friend's on Sprint - nothing showing yet...

 

[TL24]

I'm going to download the IPSW for 12.1 instead. Not sure wtf is going on and why 12 is being downloaded via OTA.

 

[Eksoccer99]

At&t iPhone X, 470.2mb OTA showing up on mine.

Yep, stuck with iOS 12 popping up on update.

 

[daffie]

It's all good. Went ahead installing 'ios12'. My iPhone is updated to ios12.1 version 16B92.

Ah, I guess what it’s about is 12.1 is the like the new base version of iOS 12 and so that’s why it is saying iOS 12 and all the features that it comes with.

 

[mppn]

remember that if you are not planning on leaving the beta seed, Apple may have deliberately kept you on 12.1 beta 5 as they may plan on releasing 12.2 beta 1 tomorrow, so no need to remove the profile or anything like it unless you want to leave beta

wonder what new features we will even see in 12.2? everything that was announced to be in 12.0 is now there in 12.1

Well, these were the things in 11.2. Expect more of the same sorts of things in 12.2. The x.3 version is usually more substantive.

11.2 changes:

• New animation when tapping top right corner of music panel in Control Center
• Updated camera icon in Messages image chooser (image)
• System-wide scroll-to-top effect added to News app
• New loading animation for Live Photos Effects (image)
• New camera emojis (image)
• TV app now available in Sweden (possibly other countries as well)
• Increased usage of "You have # new (App) notifications"
• AirPlay 2: Can now control Apple TV playback (both music & video) from Control Center (image 1, image 2)
• Pull down widget screen to open search without press in the search box (also if iPhone is locked, but the search results are less, like no documents, and require password or touch id)
• The ••• menu on an App Listing in the App Store when tapped now shows a “More by this Developer” option instead of only opening the iOS share sheet.
• Control Center album art corner radius has been changed.
• Rapidly clicking the power button twice does not result in a locked device.
• It is now possible to 'send' call audio to another Handoff device such as an iPad during a call.
• Old whiskey emoji is back

sounds like 12.2 will be just small UI changes, bug fixes and performance improvements.

Well, if we've learned anything from Apple over the last 18 months, its that they can and do do things unexpectedly. But, the pattern they established of x.1 being fixes and emoji, x.2 being fixes and x.3 being "mid-cycle feature enhancements" seems to have held for a while (from iOS 9 on, I think). So my money would be on seeing more bug fixes than anything else in 12.2.

After all, what we're all really looking forward to is the rumored big refresh with 13.0!

 

[mattburley7]

12.2 beta 1 today?

 

[john991]

12.2 beta 1 today?

Probably.

 

[john991]

About 1/2 hour to go. My guess iOS 12.2 not today.

What expectations for iOS 13?
