Apple Releases iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 Golden Masters to Developers

[neuropsychguy]

24hr from GM to release got to be. A first

Apple reps always talk about how much faster their new processors are. It looks like even the time from GM to public release is getting faster!

The attention paid to iOS 14 and the Summer's release schedule shows how little Apple seems to care about Mac OS. More and more I get the feeling the desktop is secondary in the Apple scheme of things.

That’s been the case for a while now.

Nice! Now I can finally start to workout

I’m still have News widget issues on beta 8. Also, had some apps that were weird sizes. Hoping the GM version fixes those. It’s been a weird beta ”season” for me. Every other beta update broke my News widget.

and I just downloaded Xcode last night, 11Gb (30Gb unzipped).

Time to find the ISPW links.

Looks like it's basically the same build as iOS 14 beta 8.

That cannot be! It would not register as an update it the build number is the same.

Basically or the exact same build minus the extra build letter?

That cannot be! It would not register as an update it the build number is the same.

It's essentially the same build in the sense that it seems to be the release version of the beta 8 build (the typical beta identifiers from the build number were dropped).

Build 18A373.

From what I have read online, the beta had the same battery killing bug that plagues 13.6 and 13.7. I hope they have fixed that before going public.

Most underrated feature for me has been the ability to use the video player outside the app.

Anyone else having issued updating using the IPSW files using finder?

Software update required to install this update when I try to restore from the GM on Catalina. When I choose to download it, it says it can't be found because it's not available.

Public Beta is out. Simple Question. What is a Golden Master?

Yep...

It's the version used for the general public release.

Public Beta is out. Simple Question. What is a Golden Master?

The final version that is released to production...short of something really critical it's the version that gets released publicly.

 

[CmdrPuffin]

Amusing that AIM is listed in the app list. It was killed off several years ago.

 

[Shirasaki]

Just yesterday I installed iOS14 b from an iOS 13 jailbroken device, I wanted to install before the official release for just one single reason, the feature preventing tracking will not be in iOS 14 release AFAIK.

Do keep in mind that that toggle may not actually do anything, just like “follow iPhone” toggle in an early beta for spacial audio which turned out doing nothing.

 

[clukas]

Yep...
