iOS 14 Public Beta Download. Apple’s first public beta update for iOS 14 is here. WWDC presented a new firmware release for developers at a conference on June 22. Apple iOS 14 has added a number of new features, including a revamped homepage, new widget features, updates for local apps, and more.
The public beta version of iOS 14 allows anyone to test it before the official release on their iPhone. Just note that the beta version does not have a complete list of expected functions.
