RIP iOS Public Beta Program. It was a nice ride from iOS 8.3 through iOS 16.3!
yeah when its Tuesday there will be nothing because everyone says the same thing. It will never arrive if people stop complaining about bugs in the software then apple will release it.
😆 we've been saying that for weeks.
I think ios 16.3.1 will not be released, if it exists. I don't see the point of releasing 16.3.1 for some devices, and maybe a week or more later, releasing that version for the rest. If there is a release before iOS 16.4, it will be a hypothetical 16.3.2.
Come on apple make me look bad by releasing ios 16.3.1 tomorrow haha

I really hope after all this time 16.4 isn’t just another minor update; they must be cooking something good lol
…and it’s failing miserably, hence no release. 🤪
In all honesty, we’ll get .4 soon I believe.

Good afternoon beta friends!
I'm back! Dang! so much has happened in this thread this week alone. It's crazy we did not see iOS 16.3.1 or iOS 16.4 Beta 1. I think Apple is too busy participating in the Superbowl. It is the first time ever. I also believe we may not have an Apple Event lined up in March. Perhaps, April seems more likely.
Looks like next week it is. Tuesday or Wednesday?

We may not see a beta of 16.4 and back on the beta wagon on iOS 17. 😮
It’s almost starting to feel like this may be the path.

Whoever gets an iOS 16.4 Beta 1 release date correct for next week deserves a big shout-out!!! Because none of us got it right for the last 2-3 weeks. 
Who's going to hit the jackpot?

The fact that this one has seen some considerable delay being seeded since the 16.3 dev/PB RC on Jan 18th tells you this will be the main event for what comes before WWDC 2023. (Late March through April products)
They can literally seed tomorrow or any day next week. The PB won't be available until next week, if it's seeded on a Friday.

I really don't want to wait till April. I really hope Apple holds an Apple Event in March of 2023. This is a good month to release new products due to the Spring break.
Because Early January represented several days of releases, the emphasis on a single event doesn't need to occur. Apple might change it up significantly then what they done the last 3 years.
And then Apple surprise everybody with a Friday release for 16.3.1 or a beta 1 for 16.4 haha seriously I believe that next week should be the next week something happens for beta testing

End of February???? No one has this much patience to wait this long. I find that very hard to believe. The more I realize iOS 16.4 Beta 1 is not here... the more I dislike reality OS. It's messing up the whole plan.

What plan? Why are you so obsessed with this update(s)? Genuine question.

Well if it comes out on Tuesday that’s already the 14th so sort of the latter half of the month since February is the shortest month of the year 🤭
Also Tuesday is a holiday so maybe they will have to further delay it lol.
