The subject under consideration is a pre-release version of Apple’s mobile operating system. Such iterations are distributed to developers and select users for testing purposes prior to a general public release. They provide an opportunity to identify and rectify bugs, assess performance, and gather feedback on new features.
Early access to these operating system builds enables application developers to ensure compatibility with the latest software. This proactive approach mitigates potential issues for end-users when the full version is launched. Historically, these programs have been instrumental in delivering stable and feature-rich updates to millions of devices.
