iOS 16 Beta 2 Profile Download. Apple will announce a beta version in the summer next year, and iOS and iPadOS 16 in the fall, available for all compatible devices. But if you can’t wait to try what’s new, you can download the beta for developers.
Since Apple has decided not to remove support for any iPhone or iPad this year, compatibility is easy. If your gadget runs on iOS/iPadOS 15, then you can install the new version on it (Except iPhone 6s/6s Plus and iPhone SE).
Important: before any manipulation, back up your smartphone or tablet. Developer betas can contain serious bugs, so there is no guarantee that such a system will work for you on a regular basis.
