The public beta release of iOS 18 is now available, offering users more control over the layout of their iPhones. However, the highly anticipated Apple Intelligence feature is noticeably absent from this update. Despite this, there are still improvements to native apps like Photos, Messages (including RCS support), and Notes. While we eagerly await the rumored ability to create personalized emojis, there are still plenty of features to explore in this update, although it may not be as exciting as what was initially teased at WWDC. To access the iOS 18 preview, simply enroll on Apple’s website and the beta will be pushed to your iPhone’s Software Update section. Remember to back up your device and ensure compatibility before installing the update (iOS 18 is compatible with iPhone XS, XR, and newer models released in 2018 or later).
