iOS 15 Speculation Thread

[Stuipdboy1000]

One question: Are Friday releases a thing (either beta or final)?. I seem to remember they are possible, but I´m not sure...

Rare, but possible.

iOS 11.2 was actually released on a Saturday due to a major time and date bug.

They are but extremely rare. Only seen it happens once or twice.

Thank you.

I'm expecting 15.5 beta 5 today.

Same! Fingers are crossed 🤞🏻

 

[rdinterman]

Whelp, appears to be later this week or even next Tuesday.

I think they will skip the a builds and beta 5 and go straight to RC next

That is a distinct possibility. If we don’t see b5 tomorrow (Weds), I’ll jump to that camp.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Today would be a good day to release a new beta Fingers are crossed, again.

 

[OhMyMy]

There’s gonna be a b5 today.

 

[B/D]

Or a 15.4.2.1... ok, I will shut up now. 🤣

 

[B/D]

Or perhaps it will come tomorrow, not today. Although there is still time.

 

[gank41]

Would be a great day for Apple to release something, considering Google's I/O is today 😂

 

[sorgo †]

It’s not looking good

 

[rdinterman]

Thinking next Tuesday at this point. Maybe the RC or even full release.

 

[OhMyMy]

They released an update for AirPods yesterday so I’m still hopeful of a beta today. They don’t typically release general release and beta updates on the same day.

 

[drak22]

there is still tomorrow ??

 

[B/D]

Thinking next Tuesday at this point. Maybe the RC or even full release.

Can they skip the RC and just do a final public release?

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

They have done that in the past. But that's also rare.

 

[bamf-hacker]

Can they skip the RC and just do a final public release?

Honestly they can do anything they want. There is no requirement to push an RC build

 

[Pearsey]

RC next week then, Tuesday?!?

 

[B/D]

Honestly they can do anything they want. There is no requirement to push an RC build

Ahh, I thought there was. Thank you.

Especially as this release comes with no SDK changes or new APIs.

So is not... feature rich, so to speak. Focused on bug fixes. Correct?
