Apple today released the final release candidate, a.k.a golden master (GM), of iOS 10, the next version of its mobile operating system, for people participating in the Apple Beta Software Program.
The release arrives one day after Apple revealed its iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus and five days before Apple releases iOS 10 to everyone.
If you’ve been dutifully installing the public betas of iOS 10 in the past few months since Apple announced it, then here’s your chance to see some of the latest changes before everyone else gets them. Or, you could just wait a few more days and install the official version on September 13. The choice is yours.
If you’re already registered to receive the betas, just visit Software Update and follow the installation process. If you want to join the Apple Beta Software Program so you can get this update, well, you can do that, too — go here to sign up.
