Apple today released the fourth beta of iOS 8 to developers, two weeks after releasing the third beta update and more than a month and a half since unveiling the new operating system at the Worldwide Developers Conference.

The update, build number 12A4331d, is available through Apple’s over-the-air updating system on iOS devices and can also be downloaded via the iOS Developer Center.
