iOS beta 5 - where art thou?

[Shirasaki]

When I see "public beta 4 is out" title, I thought iOS 9 beta 6 was out. However after double checking software update, and watch the thread, I know that is only El Capitan public beta 4. I have already installed this yesterday.

How is that too late in the week? iOS 8.4.1 beta 2 last week was Wednesday. iOS 9 beta 3 was Wednesday. The only day nothing seems to happen is Friday's.

It was supposed to be a joke about Wednesday being late in the week vs early back when Cue posted that tweet.

 

[mariusignorello]

Beta 4 was apparently delayed to Wednesday...especially since Eddy Cue said it would be out early in the week and Wednesday isn't really considered early in the week.

Haha I started the Wednesday argument again...

 

[LewisChapman]

are you guys even developers? some of you i guess are, but the rest? the impatient, childish rest is just here to piss about how bad their battery life is and so on, it is a ****ing BETA! if you are not a developer, keep your hands off it!

sheesh, i hope apple will use UDID's again in iOS 10. But i guess that won't matter because there is a whole market for those UDID entrys, so anybody can use it.

I know that the more People are testing the new OS, the better. But all i see, is a circlejerk about when the new/next Beta comes out. Frustrating

Maybe if this frustrates you to such a point you should avoid viewing said threads. Or seek counselling.

hello my friends, time to get the Wednesday speculation going.

I say there's a 50/50 chance it's out today. If not, then next Tuesday. Here's hoping!

 

[MrGimper]

As much as I would love to see a new beta today I would say that the chances are probably 15%, with 85% that we will see it next week.

 

[februarian]

10AM would come & pass and we would feel silly that we even expected a beta release on a Wednesday, I bet!

 

[ithinkwithportals]

Here's to hoping the beta releases today in 3 hours!

 

[batting1000]

Would be surprised to see b5 today

Came on a Wednesday last beta cycle...
Day of the week is irrelevant. Beta releases have happened on Monday, Friday, any day.

Probably better than that. Two weeks ago, it was Tues-dev beta and Wed-public beta. It's realistic to think they might combine and do both at once today. *shrug*

Possible, or we have reached the time where beta's last longer then two weeks and it will be next week.

I think it's this. Probably moving to a 3 week cycle now, so more likely next week.

iOS 8 beta 5 was released at this time in 2014 so there's hope for today yet.

I think it was yesterday in 2014 (August 4, 2014), but that was a Monday.

My prediction: Beta 5 will be released at 1300 EST time today. At approximately 1315 EST someone will state how much snappier Beta 5 is, which will be followed by someone else stating its a piece of junk, which will then spark 50 replies on why the individual thinks it is junk.

Although I haven't posted much over the years of being a member, I get great laughs and even de-stress from reading all the comments, so let the fun begin this afternoon because I need a major destresser (is that a word?) today!!

haha i need a destresser too, badly. This keeps me sane.

I would love them releasing it soon. I do use custom text tones relatively frequently on different contacts and would love to be able to adjust them without it crashing.... haven't been able to find a workaround.

Yes. If they only fixed this one bug I'd be happy. I'm stuck on Tri-tone and really miss Popcorn!
