They usually release a couple days after events.

For iPhone reveals, that’s correct, but for iPad releases I believe they usually release on or even before the event. In this case, we don’t even know if the iPads are going to be mentioned at the event (which is primarily rumored to be a media event - movies, tv and magazines). If so, the release can be in conjunction with a press release.

I know last year they released 11.3 two days after the March event, and 10.3 a week after their March 2017 event. We’ll see.

So tempted, but must remain on 12.1.1 B3 for Jailbreak.......o_Oo_O
I was until this weekend. I got tired of the pop up to update everything I pulled down the Notification Center. Also, I don’t trust the people developing this jailbreak, too much drama.

And I may be thinking of released for sale not the event too.

Back to our regularly scheduled programming. Nothing OTA yet.

Random question:

If I force quit the Settings app while a beta is in the “preparing” process, will it still install itself?

Yeah the pop up is starting to drive me bananas a little bit but I’m holding strong... I’ve been YouTubing some of the cooler tweaks to keep myself motivated :D:D

You can leave your watch on release software. I'm running the beta on my phone but refuse to try my luck on the watch since there's no way to go back.

I think you’d need to reopen the Software update page before it will proceed.

Hmm, they launched public betas 3 hours after the developer release.
Maybe they could release another beta this week?
