iOS 16 Speculation Thread

[gwhizkids]

Or if the event is in mid-late October, which tracks, any hardware unveiled then may not ship until early November, which makes 16.1 in November a possibility.

I think this is the correct theory.

The preview pages for Ventura and iPadOS both say coming in October

OS - iPadOS 26

iPadOS 26 delivers a fresh design, an intuitive, new windowing system, and a more helpful Apple Intelligence, so you can flow through work and play.

Interesting. This article suggests iOS 16 update in November, and we already know that 16.1 is coming in October. So there is possibility for 16.2 in November.

Point updates tend to stick to an every month to month & a half time frame, too. I'd expect we'd all be on 16.3 beta something over the Christmas holidays.

I'll speculate that the public release will NOT be the same build as the RC we currently have. Way too many bugs reported - they'll try to get some of these triaged (but most will likely be patched in 16.1).

 

[gank41]

It's possible we even see a revised RC today. Second RC releases on a Friday aren't unprecedented.

I hope so

Nothing today iOS-and iPadOS-wise. Not surprising. Glad we got MacOS beta 7 though.

So…what are we thinking? 16.1 betas this week?! 😍

If you mean next week, as in Tuesday/Wednesday…sure!

We not thinking a chance for Monday to start this roller coaster off again?

… then we fall into Tuesday/Wednesday?!?

Will iOS 16 be released “on a parallel rail” with iOS 15, like iOS 15 with iOS 14?

What bugs? 🤔

Could be, but this might cook Apple servers again within the same week. 😋 iOS 16 confirmed for Monday, 15.7 most probably too. So I would guess Tue-Wed for next betas.

If iOS 16 is released Monday, there’s virtually no chance they release 16.1 b1 the same day.

Ahhh, there you go. Glad someone’s still got the ball 😉👍🏼

Totally. What a dumbass. (Not you)

Nice respect there on your profile pic. 👍🏼

Do we think the public version will be the same as RC or different build

My guess would be the same .. but I’m only speculating

 

[gwhizkids]

Do we think the public version will be the same as RC or different build

Probably the same but would not be terribly surprised to see a build or 2 higher.

 

[Ansath]

We’ve seen the public release be a new build more than usual lately, so I’m not gonna be surprised if it is a new one.

 

[Pearsey]

Monday
Public release a few builds on 🤞🏼

Tuesday
iOS 16.1 beta 2 - to sync everything again with iPad ?!

Wednesday
Could be the same as the day above

From what I’ve been reading on here.

They will also need to fit 15.7 somewhere there for older devices.

I guess nows the time to remind anybody that wants to stay on the public release to remove the Beta Profile.
I don’t plan on running the betas on my 14 Pro Max when I get it Friday 📱

Aye, I just did that as hopping off beta train. Might put my iPad on tho.

Unfortunately, the 2018 iPad Pro isn’t really seeing any of these new cool things. I’m just going to ride that one out until 16.1 is released.
