guess ill be waiting for iOS 18.3 public release since 18.2.1 didnt really do anything - didnt fix any bugs that i have
 
This should be a pretty boring beta cycle (.3 I mean) so not too pumped just yet. I'd like them to surprise me with something 😬 Maybe add more languages to AI, or allow Claude.ai/Gemini to work as an AI assistant next to chatGPT?

I guess there's a loooooong shot we might see the new Mail app on iPadOS 18.3 (and macOS 15.3) betas.

But other than that I can't see anything new til 18.4

There's no way they add a new AI partner on a beta release of a bug fix release. Trust me, when they add other partners, it will be done with much fanfare at a big announcement, likely at WWDC in June.

Are we ready for a new beta update with no noticeable changes, but just changing the build number makes us feel good for some mysterious reason?
18.3 at the very least seems to include optimizations and enhancements on the server end for Apple Intelligence features. But I’m also thinking it’s possible that some more minor features will be introduced in 18.3, and we just didn’t get them in the first beta because the holiday season and delays caused by the 18.2 RC.

Yes, but beta 2 could possibly fix some issues like iOS charging is actually working more normally. AI improvements with existing supported devices. I’m sure we all know the beta 2 at 23 days could potentially add something not ready back with initial iOS 15.3 Dec 16th seed.
 
Pretty quiet here for a likely beta drop day!
We’ve been burned before, lol! 😂. Seriously though, I’m pretty optimistic about a new beta today. 👍🏻. And I am guessing we’ll see at least a few minor new changes or features in 18.3, possibly some in beta 2 that weren’t ready for beta 1. 👍🏻

Weren’t ready…or Apple wasn’t going to ship them right before the extended Christmas break.
