Apple surprised everyone today by releasing the public beta versions of iOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and other updates. Packed with new features and improvements, these betas offer a great opportunity for those who want to experience them firsthand. Here are the details of the new iOS 18 beta update…
iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, watchOS, and tvOS 18 public beta updates are now available
iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, watchOS, and tvOS 18 public beta updates are now available for download. Apple’s updated iPhone, iPad, and Mac operating systems will include enhanced Apple Intelligence AI features and an improved Siri.
However, these features are currently available only on specific devices. Let’s take a closer look at what the beta versions have to offer so far. iOS 18 beta brings several innovations for iPhone users. You can now place apps anywhere on the home screen, apply tones to icons and widgets, and enjoy a new layout for the Photos app.
Additionally, there’s a more customizable Control Center and dark mode icons. These enhancements will make using the iPhone even more enjoyable. iPad users also benefit from these updates. The public beta of iPadOS 18 finally introduces a native Calculator app to the iPad, along with the innovations seen on the iPhone.
Apple has some surprises in store for the upcoming fall betas. Apple Intelligence AI features will be exclusive to iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, as well as M1 and higher Macs and iPads. So, we’ll have to wait a bit longer to experience these features.
watchOS 11 beta introduces new features such as Rest Days and the Apple Vitals app, where you can quickly view your nighttime health metrics. Mac users are also in luck! With macOS Sequoia beta, you can mirror your iPhone screen to your Mac. For Apple TV users, tvOS 18 beta includes the InSight feature similar to Amazon X-Ray.
Trying out betas can be fun, but it’s important to be cautious. Most devices can be reverted to stable versions, but Apple Watch isn’t included in this list. Think twice before installing the beta version because there’s no going back. If you’re keen to try out these new features, simply sign up for the Apple beta program. Visit Apple’s website for installation instructions for each device.
