iOS 15.1 Beta 3 is set to continue the general feature stability of iOS 15.1 Beta 2, hopefully, with some added features we are still waiting on from Apple. It's been a rocky start for iOS 15 in general, with SharePlay missing from general release to Apple Watches not unlocking iPhones. In one way or another, these issues and many more have been fixed.

iOS 15.1 Beta 3 Release Date
Whilst we don't have a definitive answer on when iOS 15.1 Beta 3 will be released, we know that the last two Betas have dropped on a weekly cycle. iOS 15.1 Beta 2 dropped last Wednesday 29th September, which means iOS 15.1 Beta 3 should be with us anytime now. Normally, Apple releases four or five Betas before a full public release. This means we should see a full iOS 15.1 release before the end of October if Apple sticks to weekly release schedules.
