Same as GM 18A8395


Which also happens to be the same build running on the new iPhones:

Yeah, I was really hoping for a watchOS update today, too.. Checked about an hour ago for the HomePod beta update and nothing.. Just checked now as I type this and there's 14.2

Ask and you shall receive.:) Guess the theory that "they wont release both same day" is blown out now too.

I’m mostly failing with my guesses this week, it seems haha!!

Yea, i don’t remember them doing this before. They might have done, but would be such a rarity.

I’m going with another prediction that’ll be proven wrong soon enough, but I think we will get GM for 14.2 the week after next, with public release the week of the Pro & Mini launch.

beta 5 next week then GM the first week of November then public release the week of November 9th?

We might not get a Beta 5....


Okay but it would be better if release was linked to quality rather than a calendar.

Seeing as the 12 Pro & 12 Mini is likely to ship with 14.2, it's more tied to that, than a calendar. Big public releases are always tied to a date.

I would anticipate beta 5 next week, then GM the following week, finally public week of iPhone release.

Beta 4 is an A build so probably GM next weeek then. Release first week of November and then start iOS 14.3 beta 1

I don't see it being next week. It will be the first week of November, with the public release the week of the Pro max & mini launching. Just like all the x.0, 14.0, 14.1 releases. The Pro Max & Mini will come with 14.2 on.
