Release notes

What changed

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

First developer seed

Apple announced and made the first iOS 5 beta available to program members on June 6, 2011. The date and developer availability are first-party facts, not a reconstruction from a later timeline.[1][2]

Documented preview baseline

The 15 structured records reuse the canonical iOS 5 feature definitions already owned by the Public page. Here they describe what Apple documented at the first seed—not whether each feature was complete, stable, or unchanged through October.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]

Evidence and copyright boundary

The article summarizes Apple’s public feature preview in new language and links to the announcement. It does not reproduce the press release or treat first-seed documentation as a complete beta changelog.[18][19]
