iOS 14 public beta details
If you’re interested in signing up for Apple’s public beta testing program, you can do so via Apple’s website right here. Apple’s new software version won’t be complete until the fall, at which point it will be released to the general public. Testers should still expect performance and stability issues when running the iOS 14 public beta on primary devices for the time being.
Apple warns about running the iOS 14 public beta:
Apple began beta testing iOS 14 immediately following WWDC last month. iOS 14 beta 2 was released to developers earlier this week, bringing a variety of small but notable improvements.
