I'm expecting it to come out today also. And I hope it is stable compared to Beta 1

question im not a developer but I am registered and run ios 8 beta, will I be able to OTA update? or will I have to download the file as I did beta 1 ?

[CrucialTK]

depends on how it is distributed from Apple. IIRC in prior years some betas after initial were OTA, and some were the DMG/IPSW file.

I've got my fingers crossed that it will come out today. I've already backed up my devices come on Apple

Should be in 1 hour

Keeping an eye out too. Beta 1 has been a complete mess. Compared to last years iOS beta 7, this first one has been terrible.

It's not quite 1 where I am.

That's what I'm hoping. Maybe tomorrow, or tonight (even better)!

I completely disagree. iOS 8 beta 1 has decent battery life, and I get a springboard crash going into Settings the first time after it’s been a while. Otherwise, it’s been remarkably stable for me. Very few app issues, as well, though that is totally out of scope for Apple/beta iOS. The few other issues seem to have cleared up, or at least are not bothersome, IMHO.

Ok, Cupertino, hit me with beta 2.

Agreed. iOS 8 beta 1 has been very smooth for me compared to iOS 7 beta 1.

Another +1 the first beta of iOS 8 has been way better than the first beta of iOS 7 was last year. Especially considering all the new stuff that they put in it. I'm not sure how other people are loading up the beta and maybe reloading might fix the horrible experience. It might also depend on hardware too. In the end it's a beta so it's supposed to break things I just find it better than beta 1 on iOS 7.

Same with me. iPhone 5S.

The betas usually get more stable over time, usually by beta 5 or so they are pretty stable and able to nearly be run as the daily driver (except for possibly a few apps that have yet to be updated)

I know, I did a clean install on my iPod touch and not had stability issues.
