It would be nice to see Apple Cash outside of the U.S. in 12.4 but I figure we’re going to have to be patient and wait longer still.
Got a tip for us?

I would like exsisting features like Apple Cash, the apple credit card, ECG… to come to Canada (News took 5 years )
And iOS12
And iOS11
And iOS10
I think Marzipan lends a lot more weight to dark mode being part of iOS 13, particularly since dark mode was introduced in Mojave last year. It'd be pretty weird to make this whole system for iOS apps to run on the Mac but not work with the dark mode they just introduced 12 months prior.
Updates are good. That you don't see changes, does not mean changes are not made.
I was sure the one from the day before was the latest release of iOS 12, before they turn to iOS 13.
Always the same! Some say it’s the fastest iOS they ever had, others say no.
He says is the snappiest and fastest ever:
What do you think?

Depends on the timeframe of the release. They don't want to have a 12.3.1 release planned with new features and with a six week timeline for betas, and then have to figure out how to squeeze in an emergency fix between 12.3 and 12.3.1.

The purpose of betas are typically for developer feedback, not public feedback. While there aren't changes to the public API or existing UX, there may be changes (for instance) to how Apple Pay works behind-the-scenes that could impact existing code.
12.3.1 probably for internal Apple testing to be released in weeks if not in a month.
Sure. They try to reduce the impact of changes to developers within a major version like iOS 12. So for instance, the 12.3 release changed the Apple TV app experience, but didn't really impact any existing developer APIs (at least, that was Apple's plan.)
If Apple is working to plan, nearly all features should land in the x.0 major release, with most other releases being bug fixes. They do wind up having releases that expand that - such as if there is an iPad Pro release with new hardware that needs to be exposed, new features added to a built-in app like Apple TV, Airplay functionality expanding to support third-party devices, and so on. They don't have many of these low-developer-impact changes planned between now and September, when the new OS will almost certainly launch.
Apple may also move forward deprecating functionality apps use during a major release. So for example, don't be surprised if macOS 10.14.6 starts warning users more frequently when launching 32 bit apps that they will stop working with 10.15.0. This is done long after informing developers that support is going away.

Apple today seeded the first beta of an upcoming iOS 12.4 update to developers, a few days after the launch of iOS 12.3, a major update that introduced Apple's revamped TV app.
Registered developers can download the new iOS 12.4 beta from Apple's Developer Center or over-the-air once the proper configuration profile has been installed from the Developer Center.
As a 12.x update, the new software may include more significant features than the smaller 12.x.x updates. iOS 12.4 will mark the the fourth major update to iOS 12 after iOS 12.3, which introduced a redesigned TV app with Apple's new Channels feature for subscribing to and watching third-party subscription content right in the TV app.
We don't yet know what we can expect to see in iOS 12.4, but we'll update this post as soon as we download the software and discover what's new. It's likely that this beta includes some Apple Card-related features, as the Apple Card is set to launch in the summer.
iOS 12.4 may be one of the last updates to the iOS 12 operating system as Apple transitions to iOS 13, which is expected to be introduced at WWDC in June.

Seriously? Updating one tiny app which the majority of users don't even use (especially internationally where there is barely any content) is a "major update" now?
That’s the subject of your dreams?
[doublepost=1557980421][/doublepost]
That’s not all that was updated. Nor is that what the sentence says.
All they do is introduce new bugs by fixing old bugs. The obvious reason why they release betas in this overwhelming fashion is to attack the jailbreak community
