Everyone is expecting 16.5.1 because of the watch release. Now everyone will be expecting it tomorrow, I'm not sold there will be anytime soon.

Well this has been a good week so far, might as well keep it that way as far as iOS 16.6b2.

PB likely tomorrow as 16.6b1 has been fine on iPhone 14 Pro. I still find the health app has a lot of issues with not updating its summary immediately, but that is not vital to most people.

Bittersweet just like the lifecycle of iOS 16 itself. Goodnight, sweet Prince XVI, we hardly knew ye. 😪

Downloading using still-functional profiles on HomePods and Watch; will have to snag iOS IPSW in a minute. And macOS, as has been the norm as of late, will simply have to wait for p*blic.

it was a great journey here with you guys, see you on the iOS17 topic. LET'S make it legendary!

Downloading IPSW now. 🤫

Does the IPSW dev install on iPhones if apple got rid of dev features and is it activated by iTunes not Xcode?

I don’t know exactly what you’re asking but yes. I haven’t had an active $99/yr membership since 2014 and IPSWs still install just fine using Finder in macOS. Xcode not even installed. Hopefully the same is possible with iOS 17; less than a week till we find out.

Not for me

Not for me

Try snagging the dev profile if you can find it—still works fine on my Watch.

For most of us, this will be the most stable version of iOS 16 we use until iOS 17 on Monday. Savor every minute of it.
