Apple released iOS 14.3 developer beta 3 today, Wednesday, Dec. 2. The update comes 15 days after Apple released iOS 14.3 beta 2 for developers and public beta testers, which introduced a change that bypasses the Shortcuts app when using a custom icon on the home screen.
Apple released this update at 10 a.m. PDT, the company’s standard release time for major software updates. Unlike 14.3 beta 2, however, this update isn’t for both developers and public beta testers, just developers. If you’re a public beta tester, you’ll need to wait for Apple to release iOS 14.3 public beta 3, which we expect to see at 1 p.m. PDT today, or 10 a.m. PDT tomorrow.

To update your iPhone to iOS 14.3 dev beta 3, you’ll need to be a registered developer.
