Just over a month after its WWDC 24 conference, Apple has released the first public betas for its new operating systems. These include iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, watchOS 11, and tvOS 18. Apple previously released three developer betas for iOS 18, iPadOS 18 and macOS Sequoia and will bring the final release versions this fall.

The public betas are generally safer for regular users with most bugs from the developer betas ironed out. Apple is still cautioning users not to install beta software on their primary devices. Those who do want to try out the new betas should back up all of their data and enroll in the Apple beta software program.
