Yeah, it’s usually released every other Tuesday, and then every week when it’s late in the release cycle.

Well, in fairness, when it shifts to weekly around Beta 5, it can bounce around the week (Well, Wednesdays & Thursdays), but yea, mostly Tuesdays, especially when it's fortnightly (Other than Beta 1 which was after WWDC Keynote on a Monday).

I think we will see the Beta 3 today :)
Hope there will be some fixs for weather, dark icons :)

Yea, widgets need some love, as they are buggy.

For me, I'm hoping for a fix with the resetting, as I keep forgetting about it, then join a meeting on MS Teams and it resets in the middle of it! 😂😂 I have to remember to use my Mac for that, for now. 😊

I think it’s pretty safe to say that we’ll get beta 3 today. Last release was on the 7th, and today’s the 21st. If all goes well with the release and there’s no reports of anything being totally borked, the Public Beta will probably be released either later today around 4pm CST or tomorrow. That’s my guess..

That sounds about right. Here’s to hoping the storage bug is fixed.

Agree! And the whole downloading music offline in the Music App thing, too (FB7862795). If you're not familiar, you can usually download one album or set of tracks or whatever, it works.. Then go to another album and get the spinning wheels but no downloads. Force quitting the app or hard rebooting doesn't fix it. So, if you mainly utilize the music app for playing downloaded music... *buzzer sound*

I've also been filing feedback (FB7864391 & FB7774885) about the Maps app not keeping the selected view style in place.. When you open Maps, it starts you at the "Maps" style view, and you can tap the "i" and change the Map Settings to "Transit" or "Satellite", but if you close the app and come back to it later, it'll be back to the "Maps" style view again. Not sure if that's by (poor) design or if it's some kind of memory bug causing the app to crash, similar to the Safari RAM management issues. The macOS Maps app settings stay in place.. I'd assume the iPadOS (and the iOS) Maps app would want to mimic the same behavior.

Today developer tomorrow public? Like before 2 weeks?

Probably, but at some point in the beta process, they end up being the same day, but a few hours apart (I think it started at Beta 5 last year, when the Dev Beta went weekly, but would need to double check).

Yikes, this makes me thankful I use Spotify. Hope it gets fixed for all the Apple Music users tho.
