How to Install the iOS 27 Beta on Your iPhone Right Now

Apple just concluded its WWDC 2026 keynote a while ago, and it finally unveiled the next-gen of Apple Intelligence and the new Siri AI across all devices.

For developers, you can start downloading iOS 27 beta and more right now, following WWDC tradition, letting you go hands-on with the first betas for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, Apple Vision Pro and Apple Watch. Here’s what’s available right now:

• Xcode 27 beta: 27A5194q
• iOS 27 beta: 24A5355q
• iPadOS 27 beta: 24A5355q
• macOS 27 beta: 26A5353q
• tvOS 27 beta: 24J5289o
• visionOS 27 beta: 24M5291p
• watchOS 27 beta: 24R5289n

How to download iOS 27 on your iPhone, iPad or Mac? 

Head over to Settings > General > Software Update > Beta Updates > tick off iOS 27 Developer Beta.

Then go back to the Software Update menu and you will see the option to update to iOS 27 beta right away. It’s coming in at a 21.59GB download for the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Again, this is beta software so you’ll want to install this on a secondary device (highly recommended).

You do have the option to ‘Update Tonight’, which will have you avoid everyone rushing to download it right now.

Back in 2023, Apple made the developer program free to anyone with an Apple Account, axing the need to pay $99 per year.

Once the download completes, install iOS 27 beta and boom, you’ll be enjoying the next version. Just remember there are requirements on which devices will get Apple Intelligence and the new Siri.
