Well quite, and the first reported, was my point.

Does the order of something mentioned in an article written by a website imply anything in particular as far as what's actually in the update or anything like that?

Sadly that's what many people (non tech geeks) would see and would actually update for. I think Apple realises this, they know people are more likely to update if there's new emoji included.

Has Apple released any copy in relation to how this iOS update is publicized or anything like that?

How about they fix the Music app to make it as useful as it used to be? Multiple taps to bring up menus that were once easily accessible? Lack of swipe to unlock? Artist label showing EVERY artist ever purchased from iTunes instead of showing ONLY those artists currently residing on the phone itself? How are these "features" intuitive or useful to anyone?

Get over yourself. The Music app has many features. You can't just cram buttons everywhere. It may be multiple taps but everything is clearly labelled now and all of its features work with Siri which is no taps. As for swipe to unlock? That's gone forever. Deal with it.

Looking at Apple latest bug fixes - looks like many exploits were hoarded for the Google project zero competition - also Apple's bounty program might be 'helping' killing the bugs required for a jailbreak - its definitely being longer than usual .

No worries, none of these were the 0days that are going to be used for a jailbreak

Since you have it. How's battery life?

I got 16 hours usage on my first charge since this Beta.

Update: iOS 10.2 beta 4 is not currently available over-the-air, and there appears to be a bug with Apple's iOS servers. Developers who have installed iOS 10.2 beta 4 are being prompted to download iOS 10.2 beta 3, the previous beta, over-the-air after installing iOS 10.2 beta 4 using iTunes.

When the OTA update is suspiciously unavailable, it is incredibly unwise to just go ahead and download the IPSW and try to update via iTunes. It is an obvious signal that one should be patient, and wait.

Downloading OTA now on my iPhone 7 plus. It was 1.98GB to go from beta 3... Oddly enough, it says "Public Beta 4".

It just doesnt vibrate anymore. I've search and this seems to be a random issue that affects some people running iOS 10. I'm avoiding resetting to factory which is the only known solution so far.

Do not have that issue and no one that I know has that issue. I'm all my friends go to for tech support. Definitely seems like you need a restore.

Just dropped OTA per @IOSReleases on twitter. Full 1.75GB download on my iPad Air 2.

 

[Ooskalabebe]

I can confirm OTA is now available.

Just a full installer instead of a delta one.

I got 16 hours usage on my first charge since this Beta. I can't believe how snappy Safari is.

Awesome. Cant wait for the OTA to arrive.

It was the same with the last beta for 10.1 could it mean this could be final according to you?

 

[dadiy]

woohooo. UK update OTA is available. at 1.9gb I suspect this is the final version.

It really doesn't say anything much one way or another as far as its meaning.

1.99GB on 7+, just says "10.2 Beta 4", no "developer" or "public" beta name

 

[Mlrollin91]

1.99GB on 7+, just says "10.2 Beta 4", no "developer" or "public" beta name

That means you have the developer profile installed.

 

[brooksdbrewer]

That means you have the developer profile installed.

Typically it will say "Developer" Beta (I do have the developer profile)

Has anybody ever run across a bug in previous iOS versions in which group chats clone themselves when a new participant posts? My kids are going bonkers with the group chats cloning out of control. For the longest time we thought one of the kids was doing this but after speaking to everyone we found out it is some kind of bug. The kids are all on various apple devices from ipods to ipads to old Iphones and new Iphones. I'm not sure what version of iOS each kid is running.

Anyway I was just wondering if this was a known issue and had been fixed in any of the betas.

iPad was released OTA as well.

Thanks!
