[Homme]

[DimaVR]

When you guys get ota let me know lol 😂

 

[Dave.Inwood1988]

I’ve got no OTA on either my 12PM or IPP

 

[rdinterman]

Perhaps posted the Dev Portal in error. I believe it happened before. 🤔

 

[DimaVR]

Yeh got nothing and Reddit going mad also

 

[sorgo †]

Well … this is just great. 😞

 

[SpecMode]

Aaaaand the dev portal has reverted iOS and iPadOS to beta 2.

 

[AppleFanboy1984]

This is more nervwrecking tham election night

 

[Donga120]

Just finished installing for me...

Aaaaand the dev portal has reverted iOS and iPadOS to beta 2.

Uh-oh. I was impatient and downloaded the full restore image before they were pulled. Install in progress on my 12 Pro now. Hoping they didn't pull it due to something super buggy / broken.

Oof, good luck.

 

[Fjuarez]

OTA is ready!

 

[sorgo †]

Back up and downloading .. 492 MB on my iPhone 12 coming from beta 2

 

[WaruiKoohii]

OTA live here as well, ~483MB on an 11 Pro Max.

 

[Donga120]

Wonder if its the same build number. Can’t imagine they’d get a new revision out that quick though

 

[ProfessionalFan]

I am gonna wait to download that update, looks a bit off.

 

[SpecMode]

Figures...first we get the restore images without OTA or release notes, now we've got OTA and release notes without the restore images.

 

[JetBlack7]

From an f to an h build...interesting.

 

[iOS Geek]

From an f to an h build...interesting.

Beta 1 was an h build too, wasn't it? Can't remember!

 

[sorgo †]

Still not showing on my iPad mini fifth-gen after a couple of full restarts

Edit: Nevermind; profile got uninstalled somehow. Silly me—sorry.

Edit 2: 432.1 MB coming from beta 2.
