The iOS 27 public beta is now available, and it’s full of major new features. Should you install it on your iPhone? Here’s everything you need to know.
Is the iOS 27 beta stable?
Here’s what Apple says on its website about installing the iOS 27 public beta:
The Apple Beta Software Program lets users try out pre-release software. The feedback you provide on quality and usability helps us identify issues, fix them, and make Apple software even better. Please note that since the beta software has not yet been commercially released by Apple, it may contain errors or inaccuracies and may not function as well as commercially released software. Be sure to back up your iPhone or iPad and your Mac using Time Machine before installing beta software.
One thing I always like to call out with every iOS public beta update is compatibility with third-party apps.
