Apple’s public beta program is gearing up for its busiest season yet. Any day now, Apple is expected to release the first public betas of iOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and several other major updates.
Before the public beta is released, Apple lets you pre-enroll in the beta program so your device is ready and able to install the new software as soon as it’s available. Here’s how to do it.
Public beta registration is now available
If you’re planning on installing the iOS 18 public beta on your iPhone (or any of the other betas for another device), you’ll first need to sign up for Apple’s public beta program.
Signing up is quick and easy, and is available now at beta.apple.com. Here’s what you need to do:
- Access beta.apple.com from any device
- Click on the blue “Register” button
- Sign in with your Apple account (formerly known as Apple ID)
- Read the Beta Software Program Agreement
- Click on the blue “Accept” button
- Follow the device-specific guides to get beta updates on that device
After following these instructions, your device will be configured for the upcoming release of public betas.
Here are the upcoming public betas
Public betas will be available for almost all Apple devices, but not all. The following public betas are expected to be available:
- iOS 18
- iPadOS 18
- macOS Sequoia
- watchOS 11
- tvOS 18
- HomePod Software 18
Each of them has its own specific instructions for installing the public beta, which you can find here.
While almost every platform offers a public beta, the one notable exception is Vision Pro. Apple has never offered a public beta for Vision Pro, limiting its betas to developers only. Unfortunately, that will be the case again this summer with visionOS 2.
Are you planning to install the public betas as soon as they are released? Which beta are you most looking forward to? Let us know in the comments.
