iOS 26 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

I'm having a weird issue with iPadOS 26, there doesn't seem to be an active forum dedicated to iPadOS so hope it's ok to post here.

Since installing the beta on my iPad, I can no longer access the Macrumours.com website in Safari unless I either have iCloud private relay turned on, or use the Cloudflare Warp app. My DNS and other settings are exactly the same as before I upgraded and the same as my MacBook and iPhone running iOS 18, both of which can access the site without any issues. I've tried the iPad on a different network and it's exactly the same. A traceroute from the iPhone and iPad follow the same route but iPad always eventually fails and says the connection to the server was lost.

Anyone else having any odd internet issues with iPadOS 26?
 
In the end, I couldn’t resist and just installed iOS 26 on my :apple: iPhone 15 Pro Max a moment ago.
It’s running smoothly - haven’t noticed any visible issues. I’m very satisfied so far :cool:

I still can't download Visual Intelligence. At least that's what it says when I open it. I don't know how many days it takes to download, but it seems like it's not doing anything. Apple Intelligence is downloading and working normally.
 
After restoring from iCloud backup, thing seems smooth. Two big improvements:
- notifications don’t need to be re-enabled for each app
- I didn’t need to re-train Siri

Apple Seeds Revised iOS 26 Developer Beta to Fix Battery Issue

Apple today provided developers with a revised version of the first iOS 26 beta for testing purposes. The update is only available for the iPhone 15 and iPhone 16 models, so if you're running iOS 26 on an iPhone 14 or earlier, you won't see the revised beta. Registered developers can download...

I'm honestly amazed at how much 'beta 1.5' has improved my phone. I didn't have the battery drain issue but the phone os in general one of the worst betas I can remember for a long time.

However today's update to fix the battery thing seems to have improved everything from animation speed to safari glitches. Maybe my phone just finished reindexing at the same time?

Anyone else?

I did notice that in Air pods pro settings, “off” is no longer available. Only Transparency, Adaptive and NC
 
While I am starting to love the look of iOS 26 I think this will be the first year where I don’t install any betas and won’t be installing the public release in September until I have been in a apple store to compare with what I have now .
iOS 18 to iOS 26 is such a design difference I am not sure if I will like it

Why not just install the beta and if you don’t like it rollback to iOS 18.5?

I have a lot of critical data on my iPhone and don’t want to risk any corruption, also only got my 16 pro max in may so feels odd putting a beta on it so soon after getting it 😂
And don’t have a working Mac at the moment to do a restore as I out the macOS 26 beta on it and it’s not booting at all going into boot loop so yeah
