Will Apple Inc. (AAPL) Release iOS 7 Beta 4 Today

The first iOS beta release arrived on June 10, the same day Apple unveiled iOS 7 to its WWDC audience. The second beta release for iOS 7 appeared two weeks later on June 24, and the iOS 7 beta 3 release arrived two weeks after that on July 8. Assuming Apple follows the same release pattern for each update, iOS 7 beta 4 will likely appear on July 22.

Though the beta 4 release date for iOS 7 hasn’t yet arrived, Apple developers and interested users are invited to download iOS 7 beta 3, as the latest build is polished and stable. Any registered iOS app developer can access and download the iOS 7 beta 3 -- users who installed a previous iOS 7 beta release can also upgrade directly through their iDevice's settings -- but unregistered Apple fans who can’t wait for the fall release date of iOS 7 can simply opt to pay the $99 fee to Apple to get access to the iOS 7 beta software ahead of its public release date. For more information on how to download and install iOS 7 to your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch right now, check out our thorough step-by-step guide to loading your iDevice with iOS 7.

There is no word on when iOS 7 will be officially released but it should be sometime during late summer or early fall in time for the release of the iPhone 5S. Although we have no idea what to expect from iPhone 5S, it’s pretty safe to predict that it will be a small upgrade from the current iPhone 5 generation. Fortunately, we know what to expect from iOS 7. Highlights for this new Apple Inc. operating system include a simpler design, Control Center which allows users to access what they need quickly, Notification Center that alerts users of missed phone calls or important dates on their to-do list, multi-tasking capability that allows users to switch between apps, a better camera with cool filters for that Instagram effect, iCloud Photo Sharing, AirDrop, iTunes Radio, Siri, and more.
