Apple launched a public beta of iOS 10 today through its Beta Software Program. It is identical to the second developer build and provides non-developers with a chance to test the upcoming software version for the first time. But given the nature of pre-release software, is it safe to install the iOS 10 public beta on your device?
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that you use as your daily driver is your planned installation device, the short answer is no for most people. While the public beta is generally stable enough to use, dozens of popular apps such as Airbnb, Bank of America, Camera+, Facebook, and McDonald's have yet to be updated for iOS 10 and crash or have broken features as a result.
As to be expected from beta software, iOS 10 also has a number of reported bugs affecting CarPlay, Control Center, Notification Center, Messages, Music, and general system functionality. Many users, for example, have experienced audio pausing sporadically when using apps such as Music, Spotify, and Overcast.Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos.
Another aspect to consider is battery life. iOS 10 is pre-release software without the complete performance optimizations of a final build, so expect battery life to be worse than iOS 9 -- in some cases, much worse. The good news is that battery life appears to be improved in the second developer beta, which the public beta is based upon, and should steadily improve in subsequent betas.
If you have a secondary device to install iOS 10 beta on, upgrading is a safer bet. Installing iOS 10 beta allows you to test out most of the new features, such as the overhauled iMessages app, redesigned Apple Music experience, and Lock screen widgets, but there are some caveats to keep in mind before making the jump.
First, the new iMessage features cannot be used in conversations unless the recipient is also running iOS 10. If you send animations, stickers, or invisible ink to a device running iOS 9, for instance, the other person will not see any of those elements. Meanwhile, the iMessage App Store currently has only four sticker packs from Apple: Classic Mac, Hands, Hearts, and Smileys.
Third-party extensions for Apple Maps, such as those for making dinner reservations with OpenTable or requesting an Uber without leaving the app, are also unavailable since they cannot be released on the App Store right now.

Wait a little longer.Works fine on my iPad and iPhone. Don't see any issues.
Everyone, this is a prime example of something that you should report through the feedback app in your beta software.Did the update to my iPad Pro 9.7 all was great...waited a few hours read more posts and did my iPhone 6s Plus and its horrendous. Maybe a bad install?? Messages app takes 30 seconds to ope or just crashes and I can't send any texts. Phone app hangs and crashed after 30 seconds won't open at all. Everything is SLOWWWWWW. Currently going back to 9.3.2
Try putting your iPhone in the freezer for about 30 minutes, then try again.The installer deleted several apps to create space for the install. After the install, those app icons say "Waiting..." but don't seem to be downloading. Is anyone else having that issue? Is there some setting to enable those downloads?

That's really good to know. I did the update on my iPad Pro 9.7 this morning and it's been fantastic all day. I've been contemplating doing it on my iPhone 6 since it's been good on the iPad, but now I'm nervous

You sold me at Facebook and McDonald's apps are broken.
Installed it. First impression, very responsive and stable on the iPhone 6S Plus. Facebook WORKS. Pokemon GO seems to be unable to login, but I'm hoping that's due to a server overload on their part since everyone is trying to use it at first.
Still going through with it. I want to go bug hunting.
It's been a solid experience for me though. So far not a single bug encountered, and the OS is running like a GM.I installed it late last night on my iPhone 6 and got totally fed up with it by this afternoon. After filling 3 bugs, I decided I didn't have the temperament to use it, and have reverted to iOS 9 and will let others put up with the frustration. (Thank you others!)
What to expect seems lengthy delays in downloading the OS!!!!!
