If it's "released to developers", what do you think?
Why they don’t mention the message and mail issues? Or am I reading it wrong?
It was released last Friday as Beta 5, but it's the same build for final now (no GM for it was released today).
Looks like final for watchOS has been released today. I also got 6.2.5 update for my watch and I don’t have any watchOS beta profile installed
You are right! ? Working from home must be making it really hard for the different release managers to stay on the page
I didn’t get you. Do you find any issue of mail resolved actually but not mentioned ?
GM stands for Gold Master. It's the finalized firmware before public release. So the public release for iOS 13.5 is tomorrow.
Interesting - 9to5Mac is quoting a Twitter user that says iOS 13.5 will drop on Wednesday (May 20) instead

The 13.4 GM released a week prior to 13.4 public release. I'll be surprised if 13.5 arrives tomorrow.
He is most likely referring to this: Fixed in 13.4.5/13.5 betas

After reading this forum I went and had a look on my XS and it had practically finished downloading ! It is now preparing for update . I have never been on any beta of any sort..not courageous enough ;-)
