I’ll probably load it on my iPad but hold off for a bit on my iPhone. I need my iPhone in guaranteed working condition.

If Apple does the usual by releasing the first developer beta of the new full iOS version following the keynote at WWDC, will you be installing dev beta 1 when it drops? You already know I’m going to. I plan to do a clean install on my iPhone 8 first. If it goes well, then I’ll install it on my iPhone X. What about you?

On my test device yes. But my primary device no. Once I’m convinced it’s stable enough for my primary phone, then yes.

Same here. Since I do business on my phone, I can’t let a beta affect anything. I’ll usually install it on my primary phone around beta 3 or 4. Beta 1 is usually a disaster on the June betas.

It’ll definitely go on my iPhone 8 before putting it on my iPhone X.

I think I waited until beta 4 last year. It was a particularly messy beta experience compared to prior years.

Guess I’ll put it on one iPad and wait and see how everyone else is doing with it. If I can live with the issues then it will go on the X

Charging my 8 plus now so it will be ready for iOS 12b1 this afternoon.

My primary device will get it later in the week once the beta is vetted a bit. Same goes for watchOS 5

My iPhone 8 is all charged up and ready to go. I’m taking both it and my MacBook Pro with me to the office for the sole purpose of downloading and installing iOS 12 Dev Beta 1.

Ummmm... not me.. I'll be living vicariously through you. If I had two phones.... I'd definitely consider it though....

I just installed it on my iPad Air 2 and so far so good. My only issue is that my bank app doesn’t work very well. This happened with iOS 11 so I’m not surprised. Holding off on my X until it works on my iPad. I need a working phone too.

That’s by design, to keep you from spending money
