Release notes
What changed
Original editorial synthesis. Linked references appear with the claims they support and in the source ledger.
Milestone identity
Contemporary coverage identifies iOS 9.2 Beta 2 as distributed to registered developers on 2015-11-03. Public-test participation is mentioned only when it joined the same numbered milestone; it is not split into a duplicate route.[1]
What changed here
This page indexes 10 milestone-specific records. It excludes features merely repeated from an earlier seed and avoids treating a final cumulative list as a fresh beta delta. Any explicitly cumulative record preserves bounded release-scope context rather than claiming that a feature was active in this seed.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]
Evidence boundary
The retained sequence proceeds from numbered betas to the iOS 9.2 public release. No separately distributed GM or RC is modeled. That is a bounded archival conclusion about externally named routes, not a statement about Apple's internal candidates.[20]
