Developers taking part in Apple’s beta program can download the new builds to an Apple Developer Centeror by updating their iPhone or iPad already running the betas via the Settings app. Public beta versions usually arrive shortly after the developer versions.
These release candidates are for the current-generation versions of Apple’s operating systems, including iOS 17.6, iPadOS 17.6, tvOS 17.6, and macOS Sonoma 14.6. They are not to be confused with the fall build testing for iOS 18 and iPadOS 18, tvOS 18, and macOS Sequoia.
