Apple releases iOS 8 beta 6

We are all waiting to see when Apple will finally unveil its new operating system, known today as the new iOS 8.

However, today the news takes a radical turn regarding the wait for this operating system, after it was announced that Apple has released iOS 8 beta 6 for some of the company's business partners.

And this news would be corroborated by some developers, who indicate that Apple has indeed made the new version of the highly anticipated iOS 8 available to its executives .

What motivated Apple to release iOS 8 beta 6?

This curious and sudden move by Apple regarding its new operating system is likely due to the company releasing a Golden Master (GM) version alongside iOS 8.

Apparently, according to some reports, this new beta won't include any major new features. Instead, Apple has focused solely on improving and fixing bugs found in previous betas, aiming to deliver an optimal and fluid operating system.

It's worth remembering that yesterday Apple released a new version of Yosemite – Developer Preview 6. Unlike the new iOS 8 beta 6, which is limited and for the exclusive use of the company's business partners, this version is available to all developers.

This new beta, and only for this occasion, will not be available for developers to run. As we mentioned, it cannot be installed, and developers will not be allowed to analyze the new features that Apple has included in this version.

This process apparently allowed the company to thoroughly test all the new features, ensuring its new operating systems were ready and operational before launching the final version of its products.

Finally, let's wait and see what ultimately happens with these updated versions that Apple has been constantly releasing in recent weeks.
