iOS 26 Speculation Thread

Normally two weeks between beta 1 and beta 2. However since Apple pulled the beta for some devices it’s possible we may see beta 2 Tuesday.

Tuesday is a federal holiday, idk

God, how many holidays are there in the US? Somehow it's every few weeks

In the end they have more holidays than Spain haha

On the other hand, since they launched the public beta last week, I think it's very likely that we'll see the second beta this week.

Updated beta for those devices seems more likely this week

Could there be a swift beta 2 release to address issues on models with C1/C1x modems?

It’s a beta not a public release. There’s no need for swift release for anything. At least in a strict SDLC sense.

I'm torn but I still think we are at two weeks between beta 1 and 2. My better guess would be either a revised beta 1 or a released beta 1 just for the affected devices that were pulled last week.

Need 26.2 B2 asap to address the damn stuttering on the Home Screen while swiping…

Beta 1 was release on Tuesday, and tomorrow is Veterans Day. So I think beta 2 will come Wednesday.

No!!!

I just remembered, even though tomorrow is a federal holiday, they released a beta on Columbus Day. Maybe there will be something tomorrow.

And iOS 18.2 beta 3 was released on Veterans Day last year.

The only reason I don’t think we’re on a two week cycle is that we’ve already had a public beta released.

New beta today with some further visual Liquid Glass improvements would be sweet.

Ya I don't know, I am really torn on where they could go this week. 18.2 public beta 1 was Nov 7 with 18.2 dev beta 1 being Oct 23rd. So you may be on to something here. Guess we'll see in roughly an hour.
