Hi all!
WWDC just ended and I want to install the iOS 26 beta on my iPhone 12. I’m already signed in with my developer account, but I’m not exactly sure what to do next.
Any clear steps or tips would be super helpful—thanks!

Original Title: How to download iOS 26
iOS 26 won't be available as production software until September/October this year.
Pending eventual release of a public beta, if you have an Apple Developer account, you may be able to sign-up for an early Developer's release. If available to you, you will find details of the beta sign-up process from your Developer Account.

Yep. An angst, I hate and want to downgrade and no one had my permission to change anything day!
Don't forget 'it killed my battery'.

What I wrote was by no means a comprehensive list! 😜
We can only imagine the creativity of the complaints we'll see after iOS 26 drops!

You can install iOS 26 beta on your iPhone 12 if you're already a registered developer.
This is an old question from June and the WWDC that you are replying to, and the cited iOS 26 beta ended a while ago.
More recently, this thread has been a thread of people with iPhone 7 and wishing newer iOS versions, and none of those iPhone 7 models are ever getting iOS 26, beta or otherwise.
Same Request
You need to go to settings general software updates then turn on iOS 26 developer beta then refresh the page then you can install the update
How do I get iOS 26 early

You need to be a developer and have a spare device that you don't need for everyday use or one that you depend on.
Please me iPhone 12 update 26
Are you a registered developer with Apple? If you are, you already have the information that you need.
