Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the Betas of the IOS 26 developer, iPados 26 and MacOS 26 are the most popular developer Betas in the company.

“It’s wonderful to see a large momentum for our platforms,” said Cook, on a call conference Discuss Apple’s quarterly results. “IOS 26, MacOS 26 and iPados 26 are by far the most popular developer Betas we have had.”

Apple published the developer Betas after his Keynote WWDC 2025 in June. Cook did not provide any specific installation number, and he did not comment on public beta updates, which were published last week.

Jason Snell shared a transcription of complete cook remarks on Six colors.

Two years ago, Apple abandoned the obligation to pay $ 99 per year for a membership in the Apple developer program in order to access its developer beta, allowing anyone who creates an Apple developer account to install them for free. This change has surely resulted in a larger number of non-developers installing the developer’s beta, even if Apple recommends that average customers wait for public beta.

In addition, the new liquid glass design on Apple platforms is a major visual change, to which developers may want to prepare. And many non-developmenters probably wanted to play with the new design too, without having to wait for public beta to be published in July, or the final outings were released in September.
