iOS 18 beta 2 now available
Apple unveiled iOS 18 at WWDC two weeks ago and concurrently released the first beta for developers. Throughout the summer, Apple will roll out new betas of iOS 18 in preparation for its public release in September.
Each new iOS 18 beta is expected to introduce numerous changes, bug fixes, and additional features. Apple closely monitors feedback from iOS 18 beta testers, with each successive beta addressing complaints, bug reports, and performance issues.
The iOS 18 beta is currently only available to registered developer beta testers. The update will launch to public beta testers sometime in July, followed by a release to the general public in September. For the time being, testers should still expect performance and stability issues when running the iOS 18 beta on primary devices.
Apple has already confirmed that iOS 18 beta 2 will add support for iPhone Mirroring as well as SharePlay screen sharing upgrades. We’ll dive into those features once the updates have fully rolled out.
The build number for iOS 18 beta 2 is 22A5297f.
