OS X public beta program with iOS 8.3 this spring and
iOS 9 this summer. The hope, reportedly, is that a wider beta, beyond just the traditional developer program, will help improve software stability. <!--break--> From
9to5Mac:</p>
<p>Apple intends to release the upcoming iOS 8.3 as a public beta via the company's existing AppleSeed program in mid-March, according to the sources. This release will match the third iOS 8.3 beta for developers, which is planned for release the same week. Apple then expects to debut iOS 9 at its June Worldwide Developer Conference, with a public beta release during the summer, and final release in the fall…</p>
<p>It's said the public betas will include the bug reporting app that shipped with early versions of the first iOS 8 beta. That app reportedly led to screeners being flooded by over a hundred thousand bug reports being sent to Apple during the first weekend, some of which contained no useful information.</p> <p>If Apple does go ahead with a public beta, it'll be interesting to see how they balance resources and ensure the quality of feedback.</p> <p>Either way, if Apple offered it, would you want to be part of a public beta?</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-30053"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='
