We are now into August and do not have any update on IOS mobile. I know it's a unique, and difficult process, but when they released Runescape mobile for Android in October of last year, I did not anticipate it taking 10 months later with no end in sight for IOS.

Does anyone have their best guesses/ information on when they think IOS will released to everyone?

And to my runescape mobile IOS beta players, how's the gaming working? Is it what you anticipated it to be? Are there still a lot of bugs to be worked out, or is it pretty smooth? Do you anticpate A LOT more work needing to be done on it?

Any insight would be helpful, and let me hear your opinions!

There is a designated Runescape Mobile Testing forum. There aren't many reports at all though, especially on the iOS side so everything looks pretty good.

Jagex said they are working on the Testflight compliance part which only have 10k limit. As in the case of OSRS iOS beta, it took several months of testing before it was released in October 2018. Following the same timeline, don't expect it to be released before October, 2020, but it should not take too much longer.

iOS is giving Microsoft and Facebook a hard time, Runescape is obviously going to have a hard time also...
Apple isn't making things easy so I wouldn't blame Runescape or Jagex for this challenge.

RS3 iOS is going to take a couple more months following OSRS's schedule last year. There need to go through the same process OSRS iOS last year but we will get there relatively soon though. :)

Just to be clear; RS mobile for Android didn't have it's full release either. It's just an unlimited open Beta, where the iOS beta is a closed one because of Apple's limitations for betas.
Also, didn't they recently mention during one of the Q&As that Mobile released is something they've planned for early 2021?

iOS beta is great though. I was lucky enough to get access and I use it almost daily. When it was just released, it had a few hiccups. Now, the only thing I notice is some login issues, but that's easily solved with restarting the app a few times.

It seems like Jagex has sent out new batch of invitations to iOS beta today:

Another sign toward the full release of iOS in the not too distant future. :)
