How do I know if I have the profile installed on my phone? I signed up for the Beta Program and when I go to the page i am able to log back in and everything...

Just being able to sign in to beta.apple.com does not necessarily mean you will be able to download the profile. Historically, one has had to receive an e-mail from Apple, which then allowed them to download the profile.

Public Beta for iOS is always OTA. The email you get sends you to a page to install the beta profile that allows your device to see beta updates in Settings > General > Software Update.

The profile appears at the bottom of the General page in Settings.

Huh, thanks for this. Do other installed profiles appear there too? I remember with the initial release of iOS 8 they removed the ability to see what profiles were installed on a device.

You can install it again by going to and logging in on the beta program site. (I reinstalled mine right after updating to official 8.4)

That's exactly what I did, and my phone shows that I have the profile. Hoping for the beta later today!

i signed up for the public beta on the day they announced it. weird.

Except a few individuals,

People who signed up before even the Keynote ended,
at this point, still don't an invite for the profile yet.
 
I downloaded the profile from unofficial sources on these forums because I wasn't in the public beta program. Am hoping 9 will be released today.
 
Ask eddie! :) Or even ask apple.... Well, someone can call OS X and iOS 9 tech support and they will answer! :) Well, I am living in sweden and they don't know... ....
 
I'm so annoyed with seeing the "Coming soon" on the public beta page. I'm hoping today to see "Available Now"!
I feel pretty good about today. The FAQ article, combined with it being a Thursday, make me think that today could be the day! :D :D :D

We do can ask eddie! ;) Well, as people know they do released a note about apple id or something with public beta information... So, today is the day that is should be released, and if not, well wait until next week or even with DP 4... I think today! :)

If it does drop today I'm hoping that the issues I'm reading of battery performance and such that are occurring with the developer beta 3 are only isolated instances. But I for one despite my earlier hesitation am looking forward to trying out the new News feature.
