iOS 18 Developer Beta 7 is out now, possibly ‘last’ beta before public release

iOS 18 Developer Beta 7 update has been rolled out by Apple for iPhone users with registered accounts. It carries over similar features introduced by the previous updates, improvements in system performance and bug fixes. Apple has also pushed out the iOS 18 Public Beta 5 to iPhone users. According to a report, the iOS 18 Developer Beta 7 could be the “final” update before the operating system (OS) is released to the public later this year, possibly around the same time as the launch of the iPhone 16.

iOS 18 Update

The iOS 18 Developer Beta 7 update comes with build number 22A5346a. According to Apple’s release notesit doesn’t bring any significant new features, but focuses more on making the iPhone run more smoothly. The update adds a fix for an issue that prevented the iPhone from playing newly added background sounds. It also fixes the occasional disappearance of Music Haptics in Accessibility settings.

In the past, Apple has released up to eight beta updates for developers, but that may not be the case for iOS 18. Meanwhile, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman said in an X afterthat he believes the iOS 18 Developer Beta 7 is the “final” seed and that it may contain all features. This likely indicates no other future beta updates for the iOS 18 OS that was originally shown off at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024 in June.

Even if they do arrive, Gurman suggested that no new features are expected in iOS 18 other than those tied to the introduction of new hardware, possibly the iPhone 16 expected to launch in September. However, this update has not been declared a release candidate (RC) by Apple, suggesting that another beta update may be in the pipeline alongside the launch of the latest iPhone models.

Other updates

Along with iOS 18 Developer Beta 7, the seventh developer beta updates for iPadOS 18, watchOS 11, visionOS 2, tvOS 18, and macOS Sequoia have also been released. Additionally, the iOS 18 Public Beta 5 update for iPhone has also been released, along with updates for other Apple devices including iPad, Apple Watch, Mac, and more.
