Every time a beta comes out that installing it is not the most appropriate, because it contains errors and problems that we could suffer in our iPhoneespecially if we use the staff, and we do not have a secondary for testing.
However, with the passage of betas And time, all these updates They improve, and those bugs are increasingly visible, so a point where we can trust a little more, and although we are not exempt from risks, they will be minimal.
Apple has already taken the second public beta, that is, there are already a few developers, the ones that carry, so the question is, can I already install one of these to try the new system and design on my phone, or is it still too early? Let's see it.
Install iOS 26 Beta?
Apple has launched the Second Public Beta of iOS 26 and Ipados 26 on August 7, 2025coinciding with beta 5 for developers. This new version comes two weeks after the first public beta and is part of the tests before the official launch planned for September together with the iPhone 17.
This new beta brings with it the visual redesign called “Liquid Glass”, With more modern transparencies and effects. New artificial intelligence functions also arrive, such as real -time translation into calls and messages, improvements in Wallet, Safari and Telephone, in addition to the possibility of creating your own emojis and images with ia. There are new apps such as appropriate Games and Preview, and music can now be automatically mixed with automix. This beta can already be tested if you are in the Betas program It indicates that the full version will arrive at the end of this month, although we will see it with the launch of the new models, as we have already mentioned.
For now, no important failures have been detected, so it could be time to release it on our iPhone, although once you do, it is difficult to go back, so we do not recommend installing it if it is only going to be for a few minutes, and you will have to accept staying in it until the end. As we say, there are no well -known great mistakes, but it will also depend on the apps and use that you give it, because it may not be compatible with this system, at least for now, and you are unable to use, or present many failures.
And you, have you tried it already? Have you found anything for which its installation is not worth it? If you doubt, it is best to wait, since in less than a month we will have the Final Beta (RC)which should be totally stable, and not produce problems on our devices, both at the apps, performance, battery consumption, etc. For now we will continue to analyze the novelties that present us, and see if we finally have a version of iOS at the height of the year, since other companies are cutting land to Apple, especially at the level of AI.
