iOS 26 Speculation Thread

[yukari]

Does anyone have an estimate of when iOS 26.2 will be released?

My estimate is 90% by next Monday or Tuesday.

Definitely before Santa gets here 🎅😉

Not expecting it today but just wondering… has Apple ever released a .x update on a Friday?

Off the top of my head I don't remember any main version released on a Friday. if any re-release of betas or any .X.X version to solve important errors.
On the other hand, the 26.2 cycle has been quite atypical, so anything is possible haha

Lots of new carrier bundles released, usually a good sign of updates coming.

3 of those are Verizon MVNOs but Visible is missing. That’s…. Weird.

If carrier bundles were released, I think there's a really good chance 26.2 final is released today.

I think today is a good lesson for everyone adamant nothing would happen this week. Anything is possible, remember that.

Seeing iOS and iPadOS, not watchOS or macOS, though... yet

 

[ValerieDurden]

Nice now let’s hope this is a solid version.

 

[Maloney~888]

Yay. It’s here!

 

[iSuzan]

Wow.. on a Friday! Nothing is impossible. ;-)

Or maybe RC versions for those were final releases.

Told ya.

That would be unfortunate :-(

This beta cycle has had wild release times and days. I hope we go back to “normal” with x.3
