iOS 18.3 Release Imminent
Apple's iOS 18.3, primarily focused on bug fixes and performance enhancements, is expected to release soon, following a beta testing schedule similar to iOS 17.3. While not a major feature update like iOS 18.1 or 18.2, it addresses issues with the Writing Tools API, Genmoji, and Feedback app login. It also introduces robot vacuum support in the Home app and tweaks the Image Playground app icon.
Expected Release Timeline
Based on the previous year's timeline, the iOS 18.3 beta 2 is anticipated this week or early next week, followed by one more beta and the Release Candidate. This suggests a public release is just around the corner.

- Robot vacuum support in the Home app.
- Updated Image Playground app icon.
- Bug fixes for Writing Tools API and Genmoji.
- Face ID/Touch ID login for the Feedback app.
- Dark mode support for the Camera Control menu icon in Accessibility settings.
