Tutorial: How to install the public beta of iOS 11

This week Apple released the second beta of iOS 11 and first public version for users who want to test it out. Apple OS 11 was announced at the beginning of June at WWDC 2017. Here, we have already talked about some news that iOS will bring to iPhones, iPads and iPod touch.

This isn't the first time Apple has released a beta version of your operating system for the public to test. The difference, perhaps, between iOS 9 and iOS 10, is that the iOS 11 is much more stable than other operating systems. In a way, if you like to use the new features before everyone else, it's an incentive to test this version of the OS.
