iOS 9 Beta 3

The watchOS 2 beta is based on the betas of iOS 9, so, technically he's correct there.
ok so what's the next expected release date? Any good guesses? I understand it could've been said but I have not read the entire post.
*sigh* This is the sort of stuff that got the last few threads closed and moved to the Wasteland...
you guys need to relax. it's a beta. Try having an android phone with Lollipop. It's like a beta that never ends.
And let's try to keep it nice and civil so mods dont close this thread. It's always fun to speculate with this community prior to a beta. We're all like detectives analyzing tweets to figure out clues haha. Makes my day at the office pass by quicker. 
Perhaps from your perspective, although I don't know how extensively you've tested new features, how much regression testing you've performed, or what apps you're running, but results clearly vary -- just look at the Apple Developer forums, there's only about a billion bug reports. And I've encountered most of those myself on iPhone 5s, iPad 4, and iPad mini 3, including the Blue Screen of Death, which I thought went extinct with Windows 95. That said, it's good to hear that it's performing swimmingly on the Air 2, at least from your point of view--it gives me hope. Primarily I'm eager for an iOS 8 level of stability and Apple Music.

I didn't know watchOS is based on iOS 9, so I was perplexed too. I'm waiting on 2nd gen at least before getting the Watch.
Mind you, I said a perfect beta, not a perfect OS.
It has bugs, it crashes... But is very usable and like I said, the performance is great. But this is to be expected with the Air 2 because it's a powerhouse.
I installed only a couple of my own test apps but the device is full with media (music, videos, pdf, books).
14GB free out of 128GB.
Ok. We are all waiting ....I think everybody who reads the comments in this thread knows that .....so we can discuss about expected Features .....
I hope ....
1. I can try Apple Music with iOS 9 Beta 3
2. Apple will also launch Watch OS 2.0 Beta 3 and I hope we get App-updates for "Runmeter", "runtastic" and other health apps which then will support the heart rate Monitor ....
3. we get native Apps for the Watch as soon as possible
What do you expect from iOS 9 Beta 3 ?

For most of the bugs from beta 2 to be ironed out.
I'd like to see some actual evidence on my device of proactivity, every week night I go to the gym, put my headphones in and it does nothing.... yet!
You need an Apple qualified earphone to activate proactive of music playback. Such as that super expensive beats headphone.
This answer I got from the apple dev Forum ......
