If you are a user of the iPhone 14 Pro series model and you like to mess around, you can try it out, but I personally think that there is no need. After all, most apps have not been able to adapt to "Lingdong Island" at this time.
Once you upgrade the RC version and the official version is released later, you can only flash the machine completely. People who don’t like to mess around are advised not to move, after all, this system is for iOS App developers to preview and adapt to the app development.
