iOS and iPadOS are finally available for all those who would like to test them: the first public beta is finally available. For a few weeks now, it has been possible to test the new versions of the firm's mobile operating systems on compatible devices, but on condition of having a paid developer account. The new public beta is very easy to install, with the activation of a profile - it is nevertheless relatively complex to roll back in iOS 12.
Do you want to test the new features of iOS 13 before everyone else? Let's start with a warning: when a program is in public beta, it means that the beta is not finished. There are plenty of bugs to be expected, both in the system and in the applications you are used to using. As well as sub-optimal performance and increased impact on the battery. So installing the beta at this point means doing it on a device you don't use every day.
