It's out. Downloading now. 856mb on my iPhone 15 Pro!
On my iPhone, which is still on iOS 18.1, it says it needs at least 13GB to perform the installation of the update. But honestly I don’t care, as I’m going to perform a clean install through my Mac.
Going from 17.7.2 to 18.6 it would be 4,37 GB OTA on 12 Pro:
Releases
iOS 18.6 (22G86)
iPadOS 18.6 (22G86)
macOS 15.6 (24G84)
tvOS 18.6 (22M84)
visionOS 2.6 (22O785)
watchOS 11.6 (22U84)

Just like last year, the non-beta release has a different build number compared to the RC [formerly known as GM]
Just checked and iOS 14.7 was the last x.7 release that went through several developer beta releases. iOS 15.7, iOS 16.7, and iOS 17.7 were all RC until the public non-beta was released.
Major focus will be on iOS 26 developer beta while minor focus will be on iOS 18.7 RC
Thanks for the correction @drak22

The iOS 18 beta cycle can be considered over, given what Apple has done in recent years. iOS 18.7 will be released alongside iOS 26, but it won't have a beta cycle. It will be for devices that don't support iOS 26, or if you don't want to install iOS 26.
18.6.1 coming today.

macOS 15.7 will likely not come out til September alongside the '26 releases and 18.7 for iPhones that can't be updated to iOS 26.
We could see macOS 15.6.1 today though if there are bug and security fixes included in this batch of updates.
I only used it once on my series 9 when I got covid a few years ago. The doctor told me it was quite precise.18.6.1 coming today.

I really haven’t missed it on my series 10 bought last year when in the US but appreciate the update nevertheless.
Will it update on iPhone and watch even if I’m not in the US currently ??
