The date for Apple’s “Wonderlust” event has already been set: September 12. The new iPhone 15 series, the new Apple Watch 9 and the new version of the iPhone operating system, iOS 17, which is scheduled to be released a few days later, all the details of the event are expected to be announced.
However, you don’t have to wait to try out iOS 17. Apple has made a public beta version of the software available to all iPhone users who want to try it out.
You can try new iPhone features like better autocorrect, interactive widgets, use your images to generate Live Stickers, and share your contact information via AirDrop as long as you’re enrolled in the Apple Beta software program, which is free.
The iOS 17 developer beta is now in its seventh version. Although the public beta is a more refined and stable version of the developer beta, you may still encounter software bugs, features that don’t fully work, or other issues.
Since not all iPhone models will work with iOS 17, you must first determine if your iPhone is compatible; the iPhone XS and later should be suitable. You can also check out our list of the best iPhones for 2023 if you want to upgrade to a newer model.
If you want to try out the iOS 17 public beta, here’s what you need to know about installing the experimental software on your iPhone.
How to get the iOS 17 public beta on your iPhone
Make sure to update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS 16 first, and then back up your iPhone to the cloud or PC.
Backing up your smartphone is essential if you decide you don’t want iOS 17 and want to go back to iOS 16. Without a backup, you risk losing vital data when you roll back. Alternatively, if you have an extra iPhone, consider using it to run the public beta instead of your main phone.
You can continue now that you are ready.
Go to the Apple Beta Software Program website on your compatible iPhone and sign in (if you’re already a member) or register. To achieve either, you’ll need an Apple ID. If you are registering, be sure to follow all the instructions.
More information about the iOS 17 public beta can be found on the Public Beta Guide website. Tap the blue link to register your iOS device to Get Started. Scroll down to the second section on the next page and depending on the software update you currently have, you have two options:
- If you have iOS 16.4 or later, simply go to Settings > General > Software Update > Beta Updates and select the iOS 17 public beta to install.
- If you’re using iOS 16.3 or earlier, you’ll need to download a configuration profile (tap the blue Download Profile button), then go to Settings, tap the profile, and follow the instructions.
- Finally, navigate to Settings > General > Software Update to download and install the iOS 17 public beta. After restarting your phone, you will have access to iOS 17.
