Release notes

What changed

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

What survives

Apple’s archived page is titled for the iOS 8.0 GM Seed, was updated September 9, and preserves ten exact fixed records under Apple copyright.[1]

What GM documents

This structured snapshot contains 10 narrowly attributed Apple developer-note records. The index preserves the component and milestone status for each item while rewriting the factual result in original language.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Selection boundary

All ten records under exact “Fixed in GM Seed” headings are retained. Notes and known issues elsewhere in the GM document are not converted into milestone changes.[12]

Archive limitations

This page is a structured historical index, not a reproduction of Apple’s document or an exhaustive list of every user-visible change. It excludes publisher commentary, workaround prose, community observations, unavailable build claims, and the already-owned Public route.[13]
