Next should be rc and they never come out on normal pattern always random days even like Fridays it’s hard to call it
Don’t remember Friday! Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday usually and mostly 2 weeks! Unless they need to patch special security holes and than they rush things weekly.

when was it released on Friday before? I don’t remember

I'm actually a little surprised to not see anything (so far) today. It's not the end of the world for me personally, as the one issue I had seems to have worked itself out. I reported an issue with an incorrect battery percentage showing on the Lock Screen at all times, even when not charging. After sending the report in...it hasn't happened since then. Ha, figures!

To stray a bit off topic...I upgraded from the 2020 SE to an 11. I can't get over how much better the interface looks! Thinking back to the SE, I'm thinking about how odd the curved elements of the OS looked on the more square-shaped screens. It made things seem somewhat out of place, in my opinion.

Now, more on topic...Hopefully an official release is coming soon! I don't do watchOS betas, so I'm missing out on the mask/FaceID Apple Watch unlock feature. I'm loving FaceID so far...except for when I have to pick up my phone at work! It's a feature that will definitely benefit me in my line of work looooooong after COVID settles, because we'll still be using masks (just as we were before COVID came around). It probably won't be an "all day" thing like it is now, but the Apple Watch unlock will still come in handy for those instances.

Since there is no apple event we were expecting March and April. I am pretty sure we back to 2 week releases again

Hmmm...Its still March. I don't think you can honestly say that there cannot be an April event. Its more likely that we'll see the RC early next week (or sooner) and then the event on the 13th.

They would have announced today but they announced June event all ready. For June which is 2 months away.

They might not hold an event at all and just do a press release for the new iPads (If I remember right, that's what they did last year) and possibly airtags early in April. If that happens they won't announce an event, so we can still expect an RC sometime in the near future, say next week or maybe even this Thursday (Being optimistic). Either way, I sure hope we go back to B4 levels of stability and battery life with whatever comes next, RC or B6.

I don't think so. They announced WWDC because they normally announce it about this time of year and they are doing so now so that anyone who thought they might have to travel will know they won't have to. I would not read anything more into it than that.

Surely beta 6 will arrive in 11 hours time. ??

Wasn’t happy waking up this morning and not seeing beta 6. ??

But it has already turned from 2 weeks into 1 week and I can't recall a time when Apple then reverted back to a 2 week cycle.
They have done it previously with iOS 14, let’s just say a lot of people weren’t happy. ?

If next is RC then it could be 2 weeks sometimes the last release can have a much bigger gap
