📱 Yes? No?

I know I shouldn’t, but I’m quite bored, and it seems stable enough.

An iPhone screen displays the software update page for “iOS 18 Beta 4” from Apple Inc.

@esamecar None, yet. Waiting a bit, maybe someone will scream “DON’T!” at me.

@maique I used to have a secondary device (older one) for installing betas. But now that I do macOS development instead of iOS development, I decided to retire that device and returned it to Apple (for $$$). I don't do betas on my primary phone.

@maique I’ve been on the public for awhile and not noticed any major issues. A few bugs and glitches but nothing major.

@otaviocc I second that. My iPhone is probably my main computing device. Too risky for me. I usually wait until at least the .0.1 to upgrade On iOS 16 I waited until 16.1 🫣. @maique

@pcora @otaviocc That makes a lot of sense, of course. This is probably the worst time to be fooling around with betas. I do feel the curiosity, but it would be a pain if things didn’t work. Holding off. Obrigado.

@maique I took the plunge on the developer beta on my main device (yes, I know). I'm now running the 18.1 beta 2 with AI and I have virtually no issues. Perhaps a little bit lower battery life? For a while "recent" emojis weren't populated, but that's fixed. I use it all day every day and have been happy with it.

@maique Did it a day or two ago. No regrets yet, but it does always seem to bite me eventually. Some cool new features.

@danielransom.com @Mtt I feel like I would probably be ok, but the fear of braking something at this point, when I’m very dependent on the phone, is paralyzing me!
