Release notes

What changed

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

Release milestone

Contemporaneous reporting places the second developer beta on April 20. A same-day forum post preserves Apple’s known-issues section, including its explicit NEW and FIXED markers and several unmarked current-state notes.[1][2]

What this page indexes

Beta 2 has 20 structured records. Reader-facing titles and summaries are original synthesis, while short locators identify the evidence used for each factual statement.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]

Selection method

Fourteen explicit NEW or FIXED records are indexed as milestone deltas. Six unmarked entries are labeled cumulative so the page records the Beta 2 state without claiming that those conditions first appeared in this seed.[24][25]

Evidence gaps

The surviving copy is a participant-posted transcription of the known-issues section, not a first-party-hosted or complete release-note artifact. Workaround commands and long source prose are not republished.[24][25]
