It would be wrong to say that we aren’t interested in exploring what iOS 14 & iPadOS 14 has to offer its users. & though we aren’t getting our hands on the official release until the coming fall or most likely September 2020. We can definitely go for the beta versions of both the updates as they have been made public.
The release of public Beta versions include reporting bug encounters as well as if there are any suggestions for improvement. & since these public beta are FREE to be used & explored, there is no harm in trying & knowing what they have to offer. And, in case you aren’t happy with the Beta version, you can always go back to the official version you were using before.
At WWDC 2020, Apple Inc had announced both the beta versions (iOS 14 & iPadOS 14) & made them available to be tested by users.
