A key feature of this data release is the inclusion of the individual detections, allowing time-resolved studies, illustrated by the i-band phase curve of one of the PS1 RR Lyrae. The IPP aperture and PSF fluxes are in good agreement, and either can be used for studies of the hundreds of thousands of variable and transient sources within PS1. Users are encouraged to check the provided flags for various bits documented in this work, as these may indicate suboptimal photometry. We highlight two such measurements in red. Uncertainties are typically smaller than the marker size.
