When Can a New Official IOS Release be Expected?

Does it make sense to wait? is there any value in installing the Test Flight beta? My use case is with AUM.

well, curious people install betas to see what the future brings in terms of new sounds.. cautious people tend to wait for official releases. that's about all what I can say about the value of installing testflight beta's.
The officlal release is due within a few months from now, there is not anything left I'd want to add to the app for now.

I'm in the curious camp. Do I need an invite for IOS Test Flight?
