Apple Launching Public Betas of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra Today
Two days after releasing the second developer betas of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra for testing, Apple today is launching its public beta program for the forthcoming updates, allowing a broader cross section of users to test out the new features and report bugs to Apple (via The Verge and CNET).
Update: Public betas of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra are now available.

Users interested in testing out iOS 10 and macOS Sierra should visit Apple's Beta Software Program website for more details and to register for the program.

Bring on all those that don't understand what "beta" means and begin complaining when it doesn't function as properly as the final public release.

WARNING: If you plan to install this on any device (primary or secondary) ensure that Two-Factor authentication is DISABLED and for the mean time use Two-Step authentication as some users are reporting that they have been locked out of their Apple account and Apple themselves can do nothing about it.
The security methods above are different and NOT the same!

WOW... I dont think iOS 10 Beta 2 is ready for public testing... Its going to be a nice upgrade but when facebook crashes pretty consistently and it seems like battery life is taking a hit. Im guessing the average "public" tester isnt going to handle that very well. Im not complaining its a beta its all part of the process. But I know friends who would try this beta because its public beta. Must be good enough... Im thinking they should wait for beta 4.
I'd call that a feature.

The real question we need answered is if Pokémon Go is compatible with iOS 10 or not. I'm running the latest PB 9.3.3 and it works fine, but if I have to choose between the two, it is Pokémon FTW.
