I mean it doesn't have to be this week. It's the most likely though being we got no betas last week on any platform.
I think we see it today, but I think your comment is correct. And its not just for aesthetic reasons: this likely will be the last update many people will see until mid-to-late September, when iOS 11 is released to the public.
I don't know why you all saying that this will be the last iOS 10 update. It will definitely not, as previous iOS versions have had more updates past WWDC conference
Yeah, I don't get why people keep saying that. Maybe last major point release version, but I seriously doubt they will go 5 months without releasing any kind of small bug fix or security patch. I mean, c'mon people, it's basic logic.
Clearly neither of you have been around for the last 9 years. Apple stops releasing updates unless for an emergency security patch after WWDC. This will be the last iOS 10 update unless of an emergency release. They always go 3-4 months without a public release.
Yes it is "basic logic". Go look through 9 years of iOS history. Once the new X.0 is in beta. All previous versions seize unless of an emergency. Except for iOS 8.4 with Apple Music. But it ended right after that with 8.4.1 for a bug Apple Music related. Then nothing till iOS 9 public.
Says to look at history, then contradicts himself re: 8.4. OK, buddy.
My statement "Maybe last major point release version, but I seriously doubt they will go 5 months without releasing any kind of small bug fix or security patch." is completely valid.
They *could* release some new feature that would be released through another point release, but more than likely we will ride to WWDC with just incremental security/bug fixes. Nothing I said was historically incorrect, so I don't know what your beef is.
It is not a contradiction because it's a unique circumstance because there was a March event that introduced Apple Music.
Go look through iOS history. Updates stop around April/May every single year unless an emergency happens. It is very likely that 10.3.2 will be the last one and we won't see a 10.3.3.
Another release for a new feature? No. For Apple Music they did it, okay.
