How to install the iOS 26 public beta

The iOS 26 public beta is now available for users who want to try out the new iPhone features.
It’s advisable to back up your data before installing beta software, as it can make changes to your device and may contain bugs.
The new design language Liquid Glass gives users the sense of looking through items on the screen, rather than at them.
Updates include enhancements to group chats, a call screening feature, and live translation.
To install the iOS 26 public beta, users must ensure they have iOS 16.4 or above and are signed up for the Apple beta programme.
They should then go to Settings > General > Software Update, where they can find the iOS 26 Beta and install it.
It’s important to check that the device you wish to run the beta on uses the same Apple ID as the one you use to sign up for the programme.
