How to join the iOS 16 beta

To join the iOS beta, you simply need to head over to the Apple website.

You can sign up for the iOS 16 beta here.

You’ll need to sign up and enrol your devices, which will give you the opportunity to test the latest versions of iOS 16 – and their new features.

The beta will also feature a special app called Feedback Assistant where you can report any issues you find.

You’ll need a valid Apple ID, and that’s it – no fees or compensation involved.

Installing the beta also won’t affect your hardware warranty.

And you can leave the beta at any time.

What is the iOS 16 beta?

The iOS beta is a way to try out iPhone updates before they go live to the world.

A beta is a trial version of software used by tech companies to test new features.

So you can check out the next iOS update before it arrives on regular iPhone models.

“As a member of the Apple Beta Software Program, you’ll be able to enroll your devices to access the public betas and try out the latest features,” Apple explains.

“You can provide feedback directly to Apple using the Feedback Assistant app.”

Better yet, it’s totally free to sign up to the iOS beta.

You definitely need to consider whether installing an iOS beta is right for you.

Ultimately it’s still test software, so you can encounter bugs – sometimes very serious.

So if you only have one iPhone, it might be frustrating to use a new iOS version.

That said, the iOS public beta is usually fairly stable so you shouldn’t find too many devastating issues.

You’ll also want to make sure you’ve backed up all of your data before installing a new iOS update.
