iOS 18 Speculation Thread

If there’s going to be an 18.4.1 then I’d assume it’d come out before 18.5b2

💯

 

[Reeneman]

18.4.1 today?

 

[Broken Hope]

If it's a security release I'd expect it today.

 

[yeahtyeaht]

If it's a security release I'd expect it today.

I believe it’s almost never just a security release and it most often includes bugfixes.

iOS 18.5 b2 in 1 hour with nice new features.

Let’s pray to apple beta gods

 

[UliBaer]

My bet goes to 18.4.1 though...

 

[metsi]

beta 2 out!

788,5MB on 14 pro

 

[Chinoo]

Beta 2 out 16PM 1.02GB

 

[Kal Madda]

Awesome! I’ll install the beta later when I can!!! 👍🏻

 

[mattburley7]

18.4.1 tomorrow then since we got beta 2 today.

18.4.1 tomorrow then since we got beta 2 today.

Could be Weds / Thurs with Beta 2 Public most likely tomorrow.

 

[Broken Hope]

Would technically be public beta 1 as no public beta exists for 18.5 so far.

 

[Travis299]

IOS 18.5B2 on 15PM & 16P with no problems noted.

Music on macOS is up to 1.5.5.24, from 15.5.20. By the small build jump between Beta 1 and Beta 2, I assume this will be a short beta cycle. I guess public release in the beginning of May?

(I haven't look at the version history for past years)

17.5 last year was released on may 13th

So far this beta is running great, I wonder if we’ll see another two week gap until beta 3, or if we’re ready to move to weekly beta versions. So far 18.5 definitely seems better on battery use, and seems to have fixed some bugs people I know have run into. So I’m looking forward to the public release!

 

[gtmead09]

I would guess the beta flow will be:

Beta 3 - Week of April 21
Beta 4 - Week of April 28
RC - Week of May 5th
Public - Week of May 12th

 

[Domadia_Jasmine]

Maybe or maybe not 18.4.1 today

 

[Broken Hope]

Public beta for 18.5 out.

Since 18.5 is feature wise mainly a nothing burger from 18.4, maybe they skip 18.4.1 completely and we get 18.5 RC already next week? ¯\_(シ)_/¯

Why would they test 18.4.1 then? Pretty sure it's coming, this week or next week the latest.

We will probably see the RC the week of 5th May if the timings of the Pride watch face/wallpaper announcements over last few years are anything to go by.

I’m also wondering if we are going to see support for AirTag 2 in the RC. It’s due to be released in the next few months.
