Do iOS devices still randomize their MAC addresses?

Long story short, we had a lot of Apple iOS devices on our network last week. The network they were on logs their MAC address to keep track of how many devices are being used/paid for. We noticed for groups that had a lot of iPads, those counters kept going up even though they were not joining new devices.

Does anyone know exactly how iOS MAC address randomization works currently? I can only seem to find articles from the iOS 8 era when this feature was announced.
