If you’re not a developer, it’s harder to find links. These seem to work

Maybe you don’t. It’s not been too bad, and it’s great to see the new features, but like any beta release it’s buggy. The worst bugs would be data loss, but none of that.
So far I have a radio app that doesn’t work with a station I use (ootunes), netflix will not work, the battery sometimes drains, and just now I plugged in my computer and installed just about all of my apps again for some reason.
