Fixing the Mail app’s visual bugs and glitches alone was worth jumping on this RC.
Keyboard feels kinda weird to me, though…

Well I’m not making nowhere near as many spelling mistakes since the update. Does seem like an improvement. The auto spell check is a lot more accurate too.
Tell me if it’s only me. Phone app is broken. When i tap to call a contact from contacts tab it says call failed. It works ok from recents tab. Same happens from contacts app. It’s been like this since beta 4. Has to be the new phone icon they added in contact details (alongside the icons for each detail, mail etc)

I can’t talk for myself; but I think I read people having that issue with the favourites tab.
I thought Stolen Device Protection is supposed to be ON by default with this update. It’s still OFF for me.

I don’t think anyone can answer that as you’re the only one who still uses it.

Loaded the RC via Public Beta on iPhone 16 Pro.
Noticed that in settings/about/iOS Version, it no longer lists the build number. It just says 26.4.
Anyone else seeing this?

If you tap on 26.4 it will give you the exact number.

Apple Devices is a Windows utility for dealing with… Apple devices. 😉
Click on the part that says 26.4, it’ll show the build number

I’m not looking forward to being the guinea pig though I suspect that will probably end up being the case. I will give it a couple of days, but it would be nice to possibly get feedback from one other person in the meantime considering the risky history of Apple’s often-times broken nonfunctional software.

Updated from 26.3 and at this point I don’t even know if it’s a bug or they’re doing that on purpose.
Sometimes when I want to delete a mail, this pop-up shows up at the bottom and sometimes it flies to the top of the screen, it’s really annoying.
Also the delay when Liquid Glass triggers is funny
I am still having my previously documented issues with Safari in this RC. New feedback supported, FB22274055, as the old feedback, FB22107446, went from “more than 10” to “none” in recent similar reports.
For those that don’t know, I and a few others have been having issues when Safari is launched “fresh” (i.e. not loaded in the background). It takes 20+ seconds to begin loading any web page. Once it’s loaded, Safari works as expected, but as soon as it is closed/no longer kept in memory, same issue. Disabling extensions, Private Relay, and WiFi Assist have not helped.
Unbearably bad.

I know, thought I’d try be funny since he’s always bringing up that utility lol
I’m not sure why he refuses updating OTA considering it’s more reliable than Apple Devices
Same with everyone here. Which is why they moved on to better alternatives.

Oh, it’s been like that for me for a very long time. Definitely since the iOS 26 beta cycle, can’t recall if it was that way before. I figured that’s just how it is, though I can’t understand exactly why it would have such a long slow startup. For reference I have about ~40 or so tabs left open at all times.
