Release notes

What changed

Original editorial synthesis. Linked references appear with the claims they support and in the source ledger.

What survives

A complete text rendering of Apple’s iOS 10 Beta 3 developer PDF survives online. It identifies the SDK as Beta 3, preserves a 15-page document body, and separates a milestone-specific “Fixed in this Release” section from the cumulative notes and known issues that follow.[1][2]

Exact delta boundary

Only records beneath the document’s explicit fixed-section heading are attached to Beta 3. Generic known issues, functionality exclusions, and notes after that section are left out because they may have carried forward from earlier builds.[3]

Selected coverage

The structured delta spans purchase testing, Apple Pay, Apple Pencil, audio, CarPlay, Core Image, Exchange, backup and restore, Messages extensions, Music, Notes, telephony, Photos, privacy, Siri, SiriKit, and UIKit.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40]

Archive limitations

The original Apple download is no longer publicly inspectable without relying on a mirror, and Apple’s archive now presents the final SDK document. The preserved transcript and a contemporaneous filename link establish the Beta 3 document, but no unavailable build number or community-discovered behavior is promoted into this page.[41][42]
