Oh yes, usually they do. Not OTA always exactly on :00 but the announcement in the dev portal is usually spot on.
Whenever Tim is in China things don't happen as they should in Cupertino.
Here's some nice new today in the meanwhile
Disney+ started adding Hulu content to its app. Now, the streamer is integrating ESPN as well via a new tile that will start appearing in the Disney+ app today. And in a nice perk, non-bundle subscribers are getting some Hulu and ESPN content thrown in at no extra charge.

I feel like RC will be next week with the public the following week. Though I guess that’s pushing it close to holiday code freeze?
I don’t know what’s more exciting, That or the new iCloud Passwords Add-On for Firefox that Apple just released
I swear to God, Apple is pissing me off with this crap.
That's how I feel too Bro, he's about to cry like me!!
As long as we have each other, we might get through this. I’ve already sold my iPhone and ordered an Android.
And I understand that the iPhone also cries, it needs vitamins!!!
As the week is progressing and we haven’t seen an RC build. I think you’re exactly right. It’ll probably be,
iOS 18.2 RC - Between Monday and Wednesday next week
iOS 18.2 Public Release - Monday December 16th
and Maybe?? - iOS 18.3 beta 1 - Between Tuesday and Thursday week commencing December 16th or after the holiday season break.
This is all speculation and no one outside Apple truly knows what is happening.
Was hopeful we would see RC by now, but this probably tells the tale that this software has lots of issues still based on the delays we are seeing. Apple intelligence has been the worst deployment from Apple since Mobile Me.
I'm going to the Apple store right now and buy the iPhone 17 pro directly, which I'm sure already has IOS 19!!! 
Come on guys, they cant release an iCloud firefox add on and a new beta the same day. Their servers cant handle it.
That would be irresponsible. Is there any recorded instance of Apple ever skipping an RC and going straight from beta to public?
seems odd we would go from beta which was before thanksgiving break to public release next week and no RC?
