Tomorrow (September 16th). Likely at the typical 10 AM US Pacific timeframe (or perhaps the secondary 1 PM timeframe).
Thanks. Are developers only allowed to release updates for their apps from tomorrow then?
Apple released Xcode GM 7 hours ago, and that meant they could start submitting them then. Usually there's a week between this and the public release of iOS x.0, meaning there is time for these app updates to be submitted, reviewed and released. Since that gap is non-existent, won't see any apps today using the new iOS 14 things like the new widget style.

That’s funny; my son has already been able to download iOS14 for his iPhone 6s.
I tried with mine (11 Pro Max) but iOS14 is not available yet.

SO STUPID.
I was going to start a different thread but I guess maybe it part answers why some have it. even though its the GM, for me its only available if I have the beta profile installed. having woke up this morning to find my iPhone, ipad, watch all showing update available, I thought cleaner if I delete the beta profiles as once a new OS is out I don't want to continue with beta updates. then I went into updates and none of them were showing the update. I put back the public beta profile and they appeared, installing now.
There are a lot of developers that are annoyed on Twitter by this. Saying that Apple are focussing on consumers and not the developers.
Public Beta access for the GM probably
GM should have come a week before public, NOT 24 hours before. It's never been that way so why all of a sudden now? Oh let me guess, covid.
yep, nothing here in Germany either for iPhone or iPad.
And why not!Ehh, give some time...it is not like it releases exactly at 1:00pm EST.
I assumed somewhere is sitting there all morning waiting for the time to arrive to press POST UPDATE

Apple's official public release of iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 dropped on Wednesday, September 16, just a day after the company released the Golden...

that is copied from Apple, and it says 1000PDT (which would be 1800GMT/1900CEST)
If I want delayed ota updates, I can buy an Android!
I wonder if a delay is due to developer rebellion?
Apple usually gives a full weeks' notice for devs to reconcile their apps against a GM; even I wasn't expected iOS 14 until NEXT Wednesday.

And why not!
Haha, I wish! I have everything on the GM (except my iPhone 11 Pro Max, which is my daily driver), but I am really picky when it comes to new OS's...so I do clean installs on everything.
I know it is not necessary, but we all have our own ways of doing things!
Steve Jobs would have fired everyone at Apple including the gardener if the update was 20 minutes late...Apple isn't what it used to be!
Can anyone confirm that the IPSW files have been released, at 1pm, for i/OS 14?
Perhaps this is just a temporary OTA issue.
