Apple has released the fourth beta for iOS 8.2 for developers. The new release has been pushed out just under a month after the company released iOS 8.2 beta 3 to developers last month.

Apple has been undertaking an extensive beta program for iOS 8.2 as a major update is expected in this release with the launch of Apple Watch. According to reports, Apple wants to expand the iOS beta testing program to wider pool of users - a move that reflects company's aim to improve the quality of feedback.

The first WatchKit SDK was included with iOS 8.2 beta that included new details regarding the Apple Watch. The latest build reveals details about how users would be able to load apps and how the watch would work and interact with the iPhone.

A separate Apple Watch app will be included that will allow users to download and load apps onto their Apple Watch. The app can also be used to manage settings and configurations of the wearable device.

The iOS 8.2 beta 4 is available for registered developers as an OTA update or via Apple's official iOS Developer Center.
