Release notes

What changed

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

Milestone identity

Apple’s fourth developer beta arrived on June 9. Its notes retained three Music limitations, and a follow-up report identified a fix for the crafted Unicode notification crash.[1]

Indexed evidence

This page indexes 4 bounded occurrences. Every title and explanation is original synthesis, and each claim points to the retained evidence family that supports it.[2][3][4]

Evidence limits

A June 22 GM prediction was later corrected because no iOS 8.4 GM had appeared. The archive therefore ends the external developer route at Beta 4 before the June 30 public release.[5][6]
