Makes sense. Don't worry about the security fixes, or other fixes, not mentioned by Apple. What's the worst that could happen?

Apple Releases iOS 26.0.1 With Fixes for Wi-Fi, Cellular, and Camera Issues on iPhone 17 Models

The are two updates I'm waiting for eagerly. SwiftKey (so that it hopefully fixes the slight visual misalignment with the upper edge of the SwiftKey keyboard) and Mactracker, because I want to see the new devices listed and their specs. I'm hoping they come soon.
Apple claimed for decades to be a software company that made hardware. If the software sucks, who cares about the hardware?
iOS and iPadOS 26 are the most controversial releases since iOS 7. I use Slide Over all the time on my iPad. What’s the 26 equivalent?
EDIT: the macOS like multitasking is not a helpful replacement for Slide Over in my case.
It’s a better and more polished version. Updating is recommended. Could also contain security fixes. iOS 18.7.1 was also released.
The only issue I’m experiencing since going to 26 is that my watch only reports sleep generally and no longer by type, to Apple Health app.
17 Pro Max WiFi issues fixed for me with 26.0.1. In my opinion this update took too long to get out considering how debilitating this bug was.
How long did it take for your update to complete?
My iPhone 17 Pro Max has been 3 hours with the progress bar at 99%. But no reboot.
Welcome to the MacRumors Forums
Your 30 years of ‘Apple Experience’ doesn’t make your opinion anymore than just your opinion.
Several members have said this same line last year, and the year before that, and so on…
Seriously?
You make it sound like iOS 26 the end of the world yet millions of us are using it just fine.
In fact maybe Android is perfect for you if truly unable to handle this horrific change Apple has done.
Yikes, that's a problem. Mine took maybe 10 minutes total I think.
Millions are using it fine? Not sure what planet you are from but there isn't millions using iOS 26 fine.
It's an epic debacle.
There is a hope because these are just digital smudges:
Mark Blurrman claims that in 26.02, the glass is wiped clean when you simultaneously long-press the lower right, upper left, and center icon on the home screen. This finger gymnastics gesture will also count towards your daily activity goal !!!
This UI glitch when using the trackpad with my Magic Keyboard in the weather app persists with iPadOS 26.0.1. It was one of the first iOS/iPadOS 26 bugs I had reported. I’ll find out tomorrow if they fixed the issue where Maps freezes if it’s not actually on the screen (in CarPlay anyway) and therefore doesn’t provide navigation guidance… and then when you select Maps again it snaps to your current location and starts working again.
Overall the UI seems slightly smoother on my 13 Pro and M1 iPad Pro than 26.0, but I’m waiting to see if other bugs have been fixed as well, like the occasional rectangular/non-liguid glass address bar in Safari.

Unlocking the phone with Face ID since 26.0 has been very erratic! 26.0.1 didn't fix this bug. Might work once, then the next 6-7 times it kicks me to "Enter Passcode."
I've turned "Require Attention for Face ID" in settings but it didn't do anything.

If you are having battery problems, Apple suggests you get the 17PM.
Huh. I wonder if this is that bug I encountered on the Air in the store that day. I know this note is on the iPad version, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility. We know devs don’t announce ALL their changes…
