Get iOS 11 Before its Release
iOS 11 is the latest mobile Operating System from Apple available in public beta. Hence iOS 11 can be downloaded by anyone with their iPhone, iPod, iPad right now before its official release on 19th September. The company has used this software in iPhone X, iPhone 8, and iPhone 8 Plus.
The iOS 11 comes with a number of features and improvements to Apple’s devices. These features include reorganized Control Center, Peer-to-Peer payments via Apple Pay, Siri notifications, and Drag and drop on iPad. This Operating System will be of more use for iPad users in particular. This is because the operating system transforms Apple’s tablets into a laptop. And what do you think is the reason behind this transformation? Thanks to the multitasking feature of the iPad with this Operating System.
This doesn’t mean that an iPad can replace a laptop. But the Software gives a number of improvements that can make an iPad user feel it as a laptop. After the release of this Software, the developer preview will follow. This developer preview is open to only the once enrolled in Apple’s developer program.
Here is the tutorial to get the iOS 11 before its official release. And once this Software is officially released, this article won’t be of any use. But the first thing you need to do before getting into the steps is to back up.
You are recommended to back up your device before downloading the OS. Else, it may result in deleting data or any other problems. So Apple recommends backing up your data and files on iTunes and archiving it prior to downloading the Software. And it’s better to install beta software on a secondary device instead of your primary iOS device (your iPhone).

This Software works with iPhone 5s up through 7 and 7 Plus. The users with iPhone variants below 5s cannot download the Operating System on their smartphones.
