9 reasons to install iOS 18 beta on your iPhone – and AI isn’t one of them
I was wrong to think iOS 18 beta wouldn't be worth installing on my iPhone 14 Pro because the hardware doesn't support Apple's AI features. First of all, Apple Intelligence features, Siri included, will not be available until later this year on supported devices (iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max). If you don't want to try the iOS 18 beta until AI is ready, you'll have to wait a while.
But iOS 18 is interesting even without AI. Rumors claimed iOS 18 would bring plenty of exciting non-AI features. Apple confirmed all those rumors, and I promptly installed the first beta despite the associated risks. iOS beta releases can be buggier than usual and can drain your battery life faster.
In what follows, I'll explain why I decided to install Apple's newest iPhone OS now, instead of waiting. Before I start, a warning: If you want to install iOS 18 beta on your iPhone, make sure you back up your data first.
