ios82While iOS 8.2 has been in the pipeline for quite some time already, there has been no sight of it just yet. Well, in February it was reported that a beta 5 version of the software will be rolled out to developers on March 9, which is the official release date for the final build. When one takes into consideration the “Spring Forward” event, everything else does seem to fall into place nicely.

It seems that iOS 8.2 will see support for the upcoming Apple smartwatch, and it has allegedly picked up one final GM build prior to the live update that is set to be introduced next week, and a leak has occurred, or so it seems. You can check out the internal changelog in its entirety, where it will be known as build 12D508.
