Does anyone know how many releases there will be before its released to the public? 5-6-7-8? I have never ran a beta iOS before. I have had the iPhone since it first came out.

They normally do one about every two weeks until the next phone is announced, which will probably be in August.

I believe there is usually 4 betas before GM is released. I am surprised were at beta 3 already. And mine runs fine enough that i could use it for awhile.

Mine is still not 100%, but beta 3 is definitely more stable for me compared to beta 2.

Agreed. Beta 1 was really buggy but still functional to me. 2 was a vast improvement. I actually did get the lock screen to go bonkers tonight for me but it was fine after I pushed the power button again.
 
Running iOS 7 Beta version 3 on my iPhone 5. Its better than good, if i compare to the previous beta version. And beta 4 hopefully will be out by the end of the month, hope Apple will sort out all the pending bugs.

beta version is only available to developers as of now, it is better that you do not try it on your phone you might end up with a locked phone.
 
I have went back to beta 3 on my iphone 4s 32gb and its working much better for what ever reason. It may have been a cleaner install as far as my phone installing from scratch last week as opposed to the older 6.1.3 install it previously had.


I really like IOS7 besides the white pastel colors.. its pretty gay looking in my .02

I do love the quick access to the BT and WIFI and clock ect.. LOVE IT LOVE IT

I have seen many people say that they upgraded to the betas and it ran like shit. Clean wipe and it ran fine.
 
My 4S was provided to me by my employer, I hope I don't have to wipe it clean to get iOS 7 final to run well on it. Is it just a side effect of being in beta that a clean install works so much better or is this the way it's always been?

It's probably a beta thing, I've never had to do clean installs on my iOS hardware in the past.
