"Business Chat is a new way for users to communicate directly with businesses right within Messages. This feature will launch in Beta with the public availability of iOS 11.3 this spring, with the support of select businesses including Discover, Hilton, Lowe’s and Wells Fargo."

Thanks - I missed this too. Assumed it would launch in beta within 11.3 betas, but appears that could be wrong. Although, the functionality of it working in the public beta would still need to be vetted now in the beta cycle, if it's to be enabled server side after 11.3 is made public.
True. I suppose it's possible it could be released to all 11.3 beta users first, provided the selected companies are on board as well.

Wait new update todaySo it is tomorrow or the next week...
Let's hope Apple surprises us today

Please dont make me start reporting these posts again. Mods have clearly said, dont do it.A few minutes before something might happen
That has a lot of potential.
I would say that as we’ve been 2 weeks, that there’s a pretty good chance for Monday.
Beta 4 this week, probably on Tuesday. If it comes Monday I will be shocked.

I'd say Tuesday.
Isn't the two-week cycle more that there is a calendar week in between betas, as opposed to there being exactly 14 days between betas?
I think we will get a new beta today in 2.5 hrs.
