iOS 11 Beta Release & Time: 7 Things to Expect & 5 Things Not To

Expect a Bunch of iOS 11 Beta Updates

If you aren't a fan of bugs but still want to try the iOS 11 update ahead of its public release, we encourage you to wait.

Apple will almost certainly release multiple iOS 11 beta updates for iPhone and iPad. Last year the company released eight iOS 10 beta updates before releasing it to the public.

We'd expect the company to release a similar number of iOS 11 betas in 2017. It's impossible to give you an exact number but this is the same company that released five betas for iOS 10.3.2, a tiny maintenance release. 

Each iOS 11 beta will come with its own set of issues but you can expect the early versions of the software to be the buggiest.

If you hate bugs, you'll probably want to avoid the earliest versions of the iOS 11 beta.
