I think @VSMacOne is saying based on the stability and lack of issues being reported in beta thread its a good indicator they are about finished with it.
That sounds plausible. Being that only the iP12 owners got the 14.2.1 version it would make since that us lowly users with older devices would get some love too.
@gwhizkids nobody was saying it was based on the feedback. I was responding to another post stating that there would be a couple more betas. But I can see how you would think that only looking at that one post.
Basically, I’m fairly certain that we’ll see it next week. As certain as a non-Apple employee can be ?.

Or the issue with messages not downloading/syncing with icloud in the messages app
Apple will be off for the Christmas/New Years holiday period likely beginning 12/22 or 23. I don’t think they are going to issue a point release (14.3) or a significant new service a day or so before they go on holiday. So, the latest we should see both of these would be 12/15 or 16, I think. We could also see them the week prior. So I’ll say anywhere between 12/8 and 12/16, with a slight nod towards the later date.
There need to be 14.2.2 update due to bug with contacts groups - https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/contact-groups-in-i-pad-os-14-2-are-empty.2267668/
Don’t see why that fix can’t be in 14.3. Also, it seems based on your post you referenced that there are very few people affected by the bug, so I’m not sure it’s high on Apple’s priorities. With that said, I hope you have filed some type of feedback so Apple is aware of this. Bummer you are having that bug though.
As I noted above somewhere, they could go as late as 12/15-16 and achieve that. But I would not be terribly surprised if it were today/tomorrow or next Tuesday/Wednesday either. The possibly mis-embargoed headline above may be an indication of an imminent release. Or simply an article that was pre-written (not that hard to do, either)
I doubt it’s a site that gets pre-embargo information, from what I know of it.
mom thinking Apple will err on the side of caution, as they’d want to ensure there nothing that will cause them to get hell over Christmas. I’m personally leaning towards next week.
Also tending to that conclusion: Apple Fitness+ is designed to sell Watches and AppleTVs. I doubt too many people are buying those items in anticipation of the release. So they want to get it launched ASAP to stimulate hardware sales (which is the business they are primarily in!)
