Apple is very clear about this and the information is displayed when you
sign up for the public beta program and it can also be found by going to
http://beta.apple.com and by clicking on the Frequently Asked Questions
link. Here is what is said about confidentiality:
Is the public beta software confidential?
Yes, the public beta software is Apple confidential information. Don’t
install the public beta software on any systems you don't directly control
or that you share with others. Don’t blog, post screen shots, tweet, or
publicly post information about the public beta software, and don't discuss
the public beta software with or demonstrate it to others who are not in the
Apple Beta Software Program. If Apple has publicly disclosed technical
information about the public beta software, it is no longer considered
confidential.
Read our Terms for full details.
I guess the "if Apple has disclosed technical information about the public
beta" could mean that any features demonstrated during the keynote could be
discussed?
Anyhow, I agree that with a relatively small percentage of Viphone members
probably running the beta, it is probably not the place for discussion,
maybe if you are interested in such a discussion you could start a list
dedicated to this.
As for built numbers, yes, Apple Developer Beta 3 became public Beta 1 and
this is the case since registered developers had access to a first beta on
the day of the keynote on June 10. A second developer built was released 2
weeks or so later and then the third developer built was considered
sufficiently polished by Apple to become public beta 1. The first 2 builts
did not include, for example, the News app and full access to Apple Music.

Sieghard

Hello all,
I would like someone to explain to me why there is a NDA associated with a
public beta. Anyone in who wants the beta can get it so why not discuss
it?
Thanks
Steve

Hi,
That’s the exact rout I’m taking. That’s not to say the software has
gotten worse over the years, I just want to save the $99 for other more
important expenses.

I am currently still signed up for the Apple developer program and
installed via iTunes after downloading the full installer package. My
annual Apple Developer subscription is coming up for renewal at the end
of July, but I don't think I am going to renew it especially since I am
also registered for the public beta program and while I used to enjoy
getting my hands on a new iOS version right after WWDC, I am not that
keen about it any more and happily wait a month or six weeks for the
public beta.

Hello Sieghard,
Did you install iOS 9 Beta over-the-air or via iTunes? If you installed
OTA, from which website did you obtain the installation profile?
Thanks,
Mark

As others have already pointed out, the public beta program is free.
However, especially the first public beta can often have many bugs and
you really have to be willing to put up with those. In this case, the
third beta for developers became the first public beta and I can assure
you that there are issues with various aspects of iOS. Apps may crash or
not load at all, SIRI and Voiceover may not function as expected and so
on. Being on the cutting edge can be fun, but it is not for the faint of
heart. If you rely on your iOS device a lot and don't have a secondary
device like an iPad or iPod Touch you could use for the beta I'd think
twice. I have been enrolled in the developer program and have beta
tested at least the last 3 or so iOS versions, but in the case of iOS 9
I downgraded back to 8.4 after Beta 2 came out and I believe I will wait
until at least one more beta version has been released before trying it
again.
Regards,
Sieghard

Is the beta free for anyone to install? I know you can't talk about what
features and stuff, but I was just curious if I could install it, or do
I have to pay?
