iOS 26 Speculation Thread

[drak22]

I hope beta 3 drops today and it's a good build for the two-week break we might have until the RC.

iOS 18.2 beta 4 came around Nov 20th.
iOS 18.2 RC was Dec 5th (no beta 5).

So a two week waiting period could be in the cards.

beta 3 today hopefully

I would expect another beta (B3) before the two week wait. So hopefully a new one today/tomorrow and then an RC in two weeks.

Or we will see 26.1.1

Today is the day. Beta 3 incoming 🤞🏻🍀

To be honest that feedback is just as important as the negative stuff. It can seem unhelpful and snarky if you’re experiencing the issue but it helps others have a little perspective.

It’d be nice if we could have a simple a or b poll on individual posts like this.

Not sure why the mods moved this here. Nothing to do with speculation.

Update today! I feel it in my bones.

Ya phrased poorly but what I meant, beta this week and then potentially a two week gap.

If it does come out today, it probably comes out at 4pm ET. Seems to be their new beta release time (no longer 1pm ET)

I'll be back in 3 hours to check 👀

Apple throwing us a curveball today. Third beta before the second public beta even went out, lol

Probably skipped due to the menu crash with reduce motion enabled, that’s a fairly big bug for people that rely on that setting.

 

[weather34]

menu crash fixed in this release!

 

[Reeneman]

The visual issue in the App Library is also fixed. Go to the list view, hold one app to get the context menu and click on an empty space. No more strange bouncing of the app icon.

Hopefully you’re downloading iOS for your iPad

But I was told there was no bug. It was all in my head.

 

[yeahtyeaht]

It was a b build which is pretty good for a third beta. I wonder if we are going to see the RC next week.
