Apple releases iOS 8 beta 4 — developers grab it now!
how long till gold version?
Apple typically releases 7-8 betas before GM.
It (the GM) should release just before/about the same time the next generation of iOS devices launch...

What are the new changes in beta 4
I've noticed a few. Please let me know if you guys have found any others. Thanks!
1. Control center has a redesign.
2. Display and Brightness icon has an updated design. Text size and Bold text options are not available in the display and brightness settings.
3. Bug reporting app is now removed. And a "Tips" application was added and cannot be removed(at this point).
4. There is now an ability to add an expiration on video and audio messages. That can be found through Settings > Messages.
5. There is a new option called "Home Data", that can be found in Settings > Privacy.
6. You can now remove the "Recent's and Favorites" tabs that are available when you double tap your home button. That can be found by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Show in app switcher.
7. You have more customization for Hand off. Settings > General > Hand Off and Suggested Apps.
8. The Emoji icon has been updated with a small redesign.
One change I've noticed is that Bug Reporter is gone. It never worked for me in beta 2 or 3 anyway,
Control center is strange looking.

Looks like my company's app, TipCards, has been "Sherlocked" :-(
