Put your finger on the address bar in Safari and slide up to get to the all tabs window. They actually made this easier in iOS 26 (at least I think this is new, I don’t fully remember if this shortcut was in iOS 18).Whoever "re-designed" Safari and the process of opening up all tabs is an.. em I allowed to use profanities on this forum?😟
Why the heck have they now hidden the meny bar where we previously could on an instant press on the "tabs" symbol and have all the tabs?!
Now I have to press three dots, and then "all tabs". Making easy flowing processes into several steps of tapping is brain dead to me...
Same when I highlight something like a text on a site and want to do a search. You now will get a wall of alternative like dictionary, Siri, and then you have to scroll all the way down to get to "Search web" What the actual frick?!
Is there any work arounds for these issues?
Got a tip for us?

A couple of CarPlay issues:
- The CarPlay screenshot thing is broken. Regardless of the setting, it does not capture the CarPlay screen as a separate image.
- A buddy has a Ford Ranger with SYNC4A (vertical 12" screen). Prior to 26.2B1 he got 3 widgets - clock on top and two more side-by-side below that. Now he only gets one (the clock). My Ford Bronco with SYNC4 (horizontal 13.2" screen) still gets three widgets. My wife's Kia (horizontal 12" screen) now gets three widgets - up from 2 on 26.1.

I’ll say, I’m getting way better speeds on 5g since 26.2 beta 1 yesterday. The modem firmware update and the carrier update definitely fixed something.
I'm not sure why MacOS 26.2 beta wasn't released, but I'm assuming things like artwork and the new "urgent" reminders-with-alarms stuff won't sync properly until it is.
Far easier….pinch with any two fingers/thumbs. All tabs on view. Works in compact view, bottom and top view. Quickest method. Nothing to complain of here.
The things I learn on here, this is amazing, what a time saver thanks guys!
It does feel like everything is a tad faster than 26.1, just hope they fix the damn stutter swiping between the widget screen and home screen on the next release.
Thank you!💗 I had no idea they gave us alternatives. Thank you for explaining it.

Just double tap the three dots, that shows all of your open tabs. It’s been like this for a few versions
Are you waiting for Apple's AI integration across all its apps? I find these kinds of updates not to be worth it as well, but if AI really jumps in at 26.4 (as they say) I may jump back in. I'm eager to see on-device AI to be usable in all Apple apps at some point, sigh..
Certainly for the first iOS 27 updates!
We don’t need even to touch the three dots - just touch the address bar and swipe it up. All tabs will be there.
2022 Toyota Corolla on IOS 26.2 Beta 1 and wired Carplay crashes about a minute after it connects. It was doing the same thing on previous Betas. Is it the cable I'm using or is anyone else having the same issue?

It’s not a real feature, but works.
When you can turn off Liquid Glass entirely, then I'll move from iOS 18.
Lots of people have been and continue to experience this. It seems to be prominent on smaller touch screens. For example, CarPlay crashes on my 2016 Escape, but works fine in our 2022 telluride with larger screen.
