So basically iOS 16 and the early beta releases aren’t available to the public and they are available for only Apple developers. Maybe in late June or July Apple is about to release the public beta. But till then if you are willing to get your hands on it before the release you can try this method. Proceed only if you are willing to live with risk and sign up for Apple’s developer program.
Backup your iPhone
It is a beta software so there are chances that things may go wrong so make sure you keep a backup of your iPhone. Keep in mind that the iPhone 13 or any other iPhone model warranty doesn’t cover an iPhone running iOS beta. So before you bring your phone to repair, make sure that you restore it to the iOS that has been released already.
Having a backup is highly recommended.
