Apple has been releasing iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 beta updates to developers since it held its WWDC event in June. With every update, the company adds new features and improves the stability of the platform. Earlier this week. Apple released the fourth beta of iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 to developers, which came with a handful of front-facing additions, and now the company has released a new version of the beta 4 with some required changes.
Apple re-released the fourth beta of iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 to developers
As mentioned, Apple has released a new version of the iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 beta 4 to developers, which can be downloaded over-the-air on your iPhone and iPad. The original beta 4 of iOS 18 came with the build number 22A5316j and the latest beta features the build number 22A5316k. If you are a registered developer, you can download and install the latest version from the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
Before you head over to the Settings app on your device, it is worth noting that the beta build will not be available unless you link your Apple ID to your Developer Account. Once you do so, the update will appear in the Settings app, and you can install it by heading over to General > Software Update > Beta Updates and then following the on-screen instructions to download the latest build.
iOS 18 is a major update that comes with a new Home Screen layout shift and the ability to place apps anywhere on the interface; the Control Center has been redesigned, which now features pages that you can use to organize your controls. You can test out the new build of the platform right now and test all the features for yourself.
At this point, there is no information available as to why Apple saw the need to re-release the fourth beta of iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 to developers. Possibly, the company fixed a vital bug in the platform. Take note that the company will release the fifth beta of iOS 18 at its usual time, and the latest release will not have an impact on the schedule. We will be covering additional details on the platform, so be sure to stick around for more.
