iOS 7 Beta 4 Download Released for Developers

The fourth beta of iOS 7 has been released for supported iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad models. Beta 4 is versioned as build 11A4435d, and provides many bug fixes and improvements to the development iOS release, and continues the march for a public release by Apple this fall.

Download iOS 7 Beta 4

As usual, the fastest way to download iOS 7 beta 4 is through Over-The-Air (OTA) updates which are accessible directly on any iOS device currently running beta 3:

• Open Settings and head to “General” followed by “Software Update”
• Click the “Download & Install” button and agree to the new licensing terms

The update weighs in between 200 and 500mb, depending on the device being installed on. Downloading the update is quite fast through Apple’s servers, though the update itself may sit on “Preparing Update” for an extended amount of time before the installation completes.
