'''ios-releases.tar.7z''' is an archive in three compressed parts containing a massive amount of development files and data related to [[IOS]]. It was leaked to [[Pokemon Proto General|/ppg/]] at the same time as [[wiidump.7z]] and the source code for Pokemon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, on October 17, 2020.
ios-releases.tar.7z (split into three parts for its original release) was an archive obtained in the [[Zammis Clark Breach]] containing a massive amount of development files and data related to [[IOS]]. The full contents of the archive have not been explored due to its large size and complex folder structure (as the majority of the archive's contents are nested within several layers of compressed and archived files), however it is believed to have the source code and module binaries for each release of IOS, as well as other related files.

Prior to being leaked, the existence of a folder named "ios-releases" floating around somewhere was already known by some, and there was anticipation of it being leaked due to it being mentioned in the files from depotrvl.tar in [[unsorted.7z]], and gba.tar in [[netcard.7z]].
Although in a TAR file, and originating from [[BroadOn]]'s fileservers, ios-releases was not one of the [[BroadOn data dumps|BroadOn source trees]]. It was not a separate development project or repository being worked on, it was simply a folder on BroadOn's servers used to store release builds, archives, and other data. During the development of the Wii [[IOS]], ios-releases was the folder on [[BroadOn]]'s servers where every release build of the [[IOS]] source code (think "Releases" on a GitHub page) would be exported to.{{LeakNavbox}}
