Apple released the iOS 27 developer beta, which was presented at WWDC 2026. The final release will take place in autumn, but you can try out performance improvements and updated AI-Siri now. The iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, and macOS are all available simultaneously.

The key feature of this year - access to the new AI-Siri is provided via a separate waiting list. Before installing it, consider the risks: test software may work unstably, affect autonomy and be deprived of some final functions. Apple recommends making a backup copy and, if possible, installing the Beta on the spare gadget. For those unwilling to take risks, public beta is traditionally released in July or August.

Registration in the developer program is available through the Apple Developer portal or the eponymous app on iPhone and iPad - a $99 subscription is not required to download the Bae. The list of devices compatible with iOS 27 matches iOS 26 and includes models from iPhone SE (2nd generation) to the iPhone 17 lineup, including the new iPhone Air. For watchOS 27, it is important to keep in mind that before installing the watch, iOS 27 beta must already be on the connected iPhone before installation, and a rollback to a stable version is not possible until the final release.
