Developers are now enjoying the fifth beta of Apple’s next major iOS release, but just like everything created at the Cupertino camp, we never know when an update is about to drop. Unless, of course, you go digging around in iOS files… which seemingly reveals the release date of iOS 5 beta 6.
iCloudil.com has discovered a change in a file within iOS 5 beta 5 which looks like it is being updated remotely by Apple. The file was first discovered shortly after the release of the current beta, but the date originally read “2011-08-17.” Now it reads “2011-08-18” — indicating Apple has delayed the update by a day.
Since the release of the first beta after WWDC, iOS 5 updates have been dropping fortnightly, so we’d expect to see another iteration at some point next week anyway.
