Should you upgrade?

iOS 12.3 comes with a whole host of bug fixes, enhancements, and AirPlay/Apple TV-centric features. If your device is still running a beta version, we highly recommend updating to the latest update.   

iOS 12.3 is most probably the last major iOS 12 update as the WWDC is just a few weeks away now.

Apple will still continue seeding developer beta builds until iOS 13 is released officially in September, nevertheless.
