Apple has released public betas for iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and watchOS 11, offering users an early look at the upcoming updates for their Apple devices.

The iOS 18 beta also includes a revamped Photos app, while iPadOS 18 introduces a native Calculator app. Apple Intelligence features will be reserved for future software updates in the fall, available only on select devices like the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, M1 and up Macs, and iPads. The watchOS 11 beta introduces rest days and the Vitals app, while the macOS Sequoia beta allows for iPhone mirroring on Mac screens. These updates represent Apple's continued commitment to improving user experience across its product line.
