It is logical that before a new launch of an operating system we want to test all its novelties. iOS 9 comes with few new features, but there are new functions that invite us to try it, such as that trackpad on the keyboard that provides us with a new way to control some applications. Or, of course, the multi-window that is available for the iPad Air 2.
All this is very interesting at first glance, but it must be remembered that iOS 9 is in its first betaTherefore not a good idea to install it on a main device unless you are a developer and you want to optimize your applications for the new operating system. Here are 7 reasons why you should not install iOS 9 Beta 1
1 App compatibility issues
With the arrival of all new operating systems problems with applications usually appear, especially with third-party applications. That is one of the reasons why the betas of a new system are released about 3 months before the final version. It already happened with iOS 7 and iOS 8 where we could see that there were applications that were closed and, sometimes, the iPhone was also restarted.
2 Has bugs
It should come as no surprise that we find lots of bugs. Application closures can be joined by bugs such as apps that freeze for a few seconds, which can be frustrating. It may also be the case that we are doing something moderately important and let's lose the information. Or he can catch us while we are playing our favorite game or during a call. Problems can appear at any time and in any situation. That must be taken into account.
3 Downgrade to iOS 8
If problems appear that you cannot assume, you can downgrade to iOS 8 without major problems, but it is important to keep in mind that you will not be able to recover a copy of iOS 9, so everything you have done in the new beta you will lose. In fact, Apple warns about it on the support website.
4 No jailbreak
Logically, if you want to have your iPhone with jailbreak, keep away from iOS 9 Beta 1. First, because it has not come out nor is it going to come out unless some hacker finds a way for Apple to plug in the beta 2 of iOS 9. Even in that case, it would not be very good to have an operating system in its first beta and above with jailbreak. It would be very unstable.
In addition, Pangu Team has one prepared for iOS 8.3 that may work on iOS 8.4 that will be released, surely, later this month.
5 There will be no support
If we are not developers, Apple does not offer support in its betas. It's something that I discovered using a beta of OS X Mavericks. I had a problem with my accounts (I use two) and they told me that if I was not a developer, they could not help me. That was the last time I used a beta operating system as the primary system. Just in case.
6 Not fully optimized
The first beta is launched for developers to test their applications from the beginning and also to collect the bugs that they find. Once the first bugs have been found, Apple will launch a much more optimized beta 2.
7 Things We Can Expect
Some features like multi-window won't work well with third-party applications until developers get their hands on it, so we'll have a somewhat "lame" system. Battery issues are also common in early betas and even early public releases.
I understand that you want to try the iOS 9 beta, but it may not be a good idea. I'll install it, but I have an iPhone where I can install whatever I want without fear of losing data or anything like that. If this is also your case, then you can install iOS 9 Beta 1 without problems.
A question is it known if Apple music will arrive at its launch in Spain?
Yes. June 30.
Thank you very much Juan Alegre

Regarding Apple's support in the betas, I imagine that they will give it when they release the public betas (not those of developers) in July, right? Thanks
Hi, Pablo. I think they will help with normal topics. Let me explain: if you have a totally new iOS 9 software glitch, they will tell you to wait for an update. If the problem is, for example, a failure with iCloud and they can give you a solution, they will give it to you. When I installed Mavericks, with good words they told me that I should not have installed it. I had a problem for a month until it was released publicly.
Thanks a lot. I think I will dare but when they go for the 3 or 4 beta. Greetings
What must be understood is that the betas are for developers and that they do not have the same performance, that is, they can be slow or have problems, also the battery consumption can be higher, and that happens with this beta.
Good contribution! I was looking for it and could not find it. Thanks
Well the troll arrived
Can't load via pc ...
I have tested iOS 9 on the ipod touch and the iphone 6 plus and the system literally goes on pedals. It has a life of its own, apps are closed, crashed, apps are restarted, it's very stressful !!!!!! iOS 9 has very interesting new features, but it is clear that there is still a lot to polish. Let's see if for the beta publishes everything is more ... stable.
What part of "BETA" didn't you understand? When it comes out officially and whoever wants to complain will be tested, how the hell can we complain about a beta of an OS that we have not tested? Duh, the criticisms of Android have always been to released versions, not to the developer versions ... and I agree with Paco ... that would be.
I installed it on iPhone 4s and the truth is that I do not know what they complain about, since obviously it is beta and even so, being the first beta it does not have so many bugs, I mean it is the first of a new generation besides that if they did not launch neither proactive nor news In iphone 4s with beta one but they plow it like the others, the only bug I find in the forced respring and some apps but if they install it it is obvious that there are problems, do not install a beta thinking that it is stable since neither the public betas are stable….
