Release notes

What changed

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

Beta 3 release identity

Contemporaneous release reporting identifies iOS 5 Beta 3 as available to developers on 2011-07-11. This batch creates that historical event identity without adding a milestone to the hardcoded seed file.[1]

Structured developer-note delta

The page contains 16 source-linked records: 7 explicit fixes, 8 known milestone conditions, and 1 API or behavior changes. Repeated cumulative text is excluded unless it is needed to show continuing state.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]

Evidence boundary

The detailed notes survive through a third-party reproduction of Apple’s developer material. The page paraphrases selected records, credits both the original author and preserving publisher, and makes no claim of completeness.[18][19][20]
