The next big iPhone software, iOS 26, is almost ready for its public beta release.

Apple announced the next big iPhone software back in June, set to go on general release this fall. It’s called iOS 26 and its new design has made it highly anticipated. If you’re keen to try iOS 26, it’s about to become available in the first public beta – and more information has now come to light. Here’s what’s happening. Apple announced in June that the release of iOS 26 would first appear as developer betas as usual, with the first public beta set for July.

And there’s another reason things seem to be running a little late, which is that instead of using the third developer beta as the basis for the public beta, which is the usual one, “It seems likely that this public beta will match up with the fourth developer beta version,” this time, Gurman goes on.

Since this is for public use, better software will be welcome. There have been tweaks to the Liquid Glass design which is the marquee feature in iOS 26, so maybe developer beta 4/public beta 1, will have something closer to the final look.This week looks most likely: Apple said July and after this week, there are only three days in July left.

Gurman’s proposed date of July 23 is also possible, but keep an eye out for dev beta news on Monday. I’ll be updating the news, so please check back.
