\t\"iOS<\/p>\n

iOS 26.2 is expected to launch some time this week, but it looks like today might be ruled out. Apple has just shipped a second RC of iOS 26.2 for developers and public beta testers.<\/p>\n

iOS 26.2 revised RC arrives for developers and public beta testers<\/p>\n

Earlier today, a leaker with a strong track record of predicting Apple software launches shared<\/a> two build numbers for iOS 26.2.<\/p>\n

One of those matched the previous RC, but the second matches a new RC Apple has just debuted.<\/p>\n

iOS 26.2\u2019s second RC version is now available, with\u00a023C54 as the build number. The previous RC was 23C52.<\/p>\n

Apple is still expected to launch iOS 26.2 to all users some time this week, but following this new RC, that almost certainly won\u2019t happen today.<\/p>\n

Whenever an RC debuts for beta testers, Apple\u2019s intent is that it ends up being the exact software build that ships to all users.<\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s not uncommon for the company to ship revised RC builds after a few days of testing. That\u2019s what happened with tvOS 26.2 last week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Shipping the software to beta testers can sometimes reveal critical bugs that need to be addressed. Thus, today\u2019s updated RC build is here for iPhone.<\/p>\n

Assuming the new RC doesn\u2019t present any new issues, iOS 26.2 is likely to launch to all users in the days ahead.<\/p>\n

Have you noticed any changes in the new iOS 26.2 RC? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
