iOS 14 Release Speculation

[Cobold]

Very curious at how roll out is going to be! I doubt we'll see apps burning from this release, but should make for interesting updates afterwards.

There have been 8 betas for a reason 😉
Most apps are ready for 14.5 for some weeks at least.

Don't I know it! It's pretty much been eating me alive the last few weeks.

Do we think beta 8 could be the final build as in when the official public release comes out it will be same build number but obv without the letter and small build number, has happened before, I hope the final version is a higher build 🙂

Hopefully a higher build with bug fixes.

I can’t imagine it being too many builds higher.

The release candidate of iOS 14.5 is going to be this week 🙂. I hope Apple releases the new iOS 14.5 by this Friday. That would be so dope.

With 8 betas (the most ever for a X.1 release) , an RC isn’t needed. If devs don’t have their apps ready after nearly 3 months of betas, that’s their problem. The final release could contain all the necessary new product support. Fingers crossed for a release soon after the event.

So, what will be next? 14.6 or 15… And a new thread? Eight betas is too many, and so is 215 pages of this

What will be next will be iOS 15 development and the occasional surprise 14.5.1 or 2 release.

I guess Public Release today.

 

[Kylo83]

I guess Public Release today.

They don’t normally release a public release straight after an event, most likely will be this week tho

 

[Pearsey]

Today, is the day, apparently. 🤞please Apple let the RC have an iMessage bar for Mike.

 

[Kylo83]

Happy Apple day today 😀

Store being closed suggests ordering today and deliveries Friday. That would support public release this week.

or there will just be a public release this week and we won't get anything today 😉

 

[dan980]

It's been "soon" for a few months

 

[Kylo83]

ive got a feeling 14.5 is coming 30th April like the other releases

 

[Ansath]

Im sticking with RC today and public release next week (Wednesday or Thursday) in time for AirTags on 30th.

If AirTags were available this week, we would have had public release today.

 

[macintoshmac]

RC today and release next week or maybe even 3-4 days later is an appropriate process to follow. Gives time for any showstopper issues that might creep in.
