Apple released the first beta of iOS 18 to developers shortly after last month's developer conference, which included some of the new features the company announced at WWDC. So far, the company has released three developer betas, each more stable than the previous one, and we expect the company to release the fourth beta next week.
Many users are waiting for the public beta to be released to ensure its stability, but the company has not revealed when it will be launched. If past trends are followed, we think Apple may release the first public beta of iOS 18 for your iPhone tomorrow, a week earlier than the developer beta 4 release.
iOS 18 is a major update that includes a ton of new features and visual changes, including a redesigned Control Center, a new Home screen layout, and more. One of the major additions we're all looking forward to is Apple Intelligence and the new Siri experience, which will be available to developers early next year. However, this update still includes some major changes that all users should try out for themselves to get a feel for what to expect from the final release.
In past years, we've noticed that Apple wouldn't release the first public beta of an iOS update until after it had released the third beta to developers. In contrast, the third developer beta of iOS 18 has already been released to developers, giving us a fairly reliable indication of the public beta. Furthermore, the first public beta would arrive a week after the third beta was released to developers, or a week before the fourth developer beta was released. If Apple follows the same trend, we could potentially expect the first beta of iOS 18 to arrive tomorrow, which would be the week between iOS 18 Beta 3 and Beta 4.
These speculations are only true if the company follows its past beta update trends. Also, it depends on whether the public beta is ready for release. This means that the company will make sure that the version is stable for regular users. This has always been the biggest concern of users: should they download and install the developer beta or wait for the public beta which is more stable than the previous one.
In addition to iOS 18, Apple will also release watchOS 11, macOS 15, visionOS 2, tvOS 18, and other updates, and make them available to the public in beta form.
