Hello,

Beta releases are likely to have some defects so we recommend them for development while you keep your personal devices on production releases.

Claude31's suggestion to use the Simulator instead is a good alternative.

Otherwise, check out How to uninstall iOS or iPadOS beta software to put your device back on a production build.

If your iPhone is your main and only device, I do advise NOT to install beta releases. Yes, it can be instable, by nature of a beta.

Wait for a full release, and even don't rush to install. You can live a few months with previous release and wait for 26.2 or 26.3.

For your app development, test on simulator, that's no risk. You will find plenty of information from Apple, on the web, on what's new in iOS 26.
