Within that section, find the subsection titled "Install Beta" and click on "Check for Updates" - this will check to see if any new beta upgrades are available. Checking for new versions may take a minute.

To upgrade to the beta, click the "Install Beta" button. The device will upgrade just as it does for typical new releases.

Upgrading

After upgrading, new versions will appear as they normally do and it is recommended to upgrade to a new release once available.
