Just curious as I wait.... when I tap "Software updates" >> "Beta Updates", software update currently displays options for ios 17 public and developer betas. Will this switch to ios 18 developer and public betas without my intervention when they are available, or do I need to do something?
Got a tip for us?

Will "software update" switch from showing ios 17.x dev and public betas to ios 18?

I just checked the Apple Developer site, and the relevant sections to your question are down for “scheduled maintenance”.
EDIT: so no one knows quite yet.
It told me my Apple ID was not enrolled in the Appleseed program (anymore) and when I went to the site, it's under maintenance. After a reboot, I only have the public and developer beta options.
Free account for me.
It is live indeed, downloading it RN. To me this update was way more exciting than iOS17, that was boring AF. Lots of quality of life improvements this year instead of useless sharing bollocks nobody uses.
If You have a free DEV account then just go into the settings and iOS18 dev beta should be there, just check it go back and search for updates. It popped right up on my 15 Pro.
I didn't have to restart. I just when into and out of, the General - Updates screens.
I am in Austria and have the update, my friend from Ireland still does not see the dev beta profile. I believe it is coming in waves.
