Release notes

What changed

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

Preserved Seed 5 state

A fixed BGR archive snapshot and a contemporaneous iDevice.ro reproduction preserve matching Seed 5 developer-note sections. The two copies support a focused set of explicit fixes and milestone-labeled changes.[1][2]

Structured release delta

The page contains 12 records: 8 explicit Seed 5 fixes and four notes with a defensible milestone boundary. Repeated issues keep the same canonical identity used on earlier prerelease pages.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]

Evidence boundary

The cumulative sections contain older context that is not promoted into this release delta. Reader-facing text is original synthesis, and both the Apple-authored material and each preserving publisher are identified in the source record.[27][28]
