Warning to all. Dont do it on your main phone. It will break some apps and stock features. Possibly make your phone sluggish at times too.
Did it last year with iOS 26 Beta. Never again.

I already did it. I did it every year since iOS 18, never had problems at all. iOS 26 wasn’t bad at all for me.
