I’ve got to say that I’m impressed by the first beta of iOS 26. It’s stunning! I’m really digging the new Liquid Glass design and I thinks it’s a great start. Can’t wait to see where it will end. Stability is fairly good. I haven’t had any apps crashing or resprings yet. It stutters but that’s expected at this state. I can’t imagine what’s going on behind the scenes when it comes to making Liquid Glass work.

Absolutely the same here. I am amazed at the stability and compatibility of a beta 1 on my 16PM and IPP. It’s all downhill from here…

My iPhone 15 Pro is stuck trying to download Visual Intelligence, and it's causing it to heat up and drain more battery than normal. I see this because at times, Apple Intelligence takes up 6.37GB, then suddenly drops to 4.8GB and then goes back up again, and that's it. The Apple Intelligence section doesn't indicate that anything is downloading, and turning the AI off and on and restarting the phone isn't helping at all. Since it started doing this, the system data has frozen at 1.07GB.
 
Could others confirm that iOS 26 is actually updating applications automatically now?

This morning I checked my application list expecting to have to manually kick off an update of countless apps showing that updates have been available for a couple of days…

FYI… my 16 PM charges overnight and is on WiFi at that time…

Have you turned on the switch in Apps, App Store Auto-Updates? Mine was Off, I am just trying to verify…
 
This might have been mentioned already, but if you move lock screen widgets to the bottom of the screen, they stay pinned there even as you’re scrolling through notifications. When they’re at the top, they move away when scrolling.

I’ve always had to manually update my apps for the past several years.

Is it saved as a Favorite? There seems to be in issue with those. I haven’t been able rearrange them, nor can I edit the name. For bookmarks in other folders, tap the 3 dots go to bookmarks at the top, find the bookmarks and long press for the menu, then tap edit

That’s it.. bookmarks in Favorites are locked down, no editing. Other folders seem to be normal.

As a work-around I re-saved the bookmark into Favorites with a better name, and now it’s synced correctly to my iPad and iPhone (no access to my Mac right now), and I’m finding all newly saved bookmarks to Favorites can not be reordered either. The others that were previously saved can be reordered. Also, the favicon of Favorites bookmarks do not refresh either

I’ll report these Bookmarks management bugs to Apple shortly

Once I get to my Mac in a few days, I hope I can fix it up there in macOS 26

Thanks for confirming @dcp10

Same here, which is the reason for my post. I am cautiously optimistic that they have finally seen fit to address that issue.

Time will tell…

Maybe they reduced the time window for the auto updates. I think I read a long time ago when I was developing apps that auto updates work after 2 weeks of the update being released. Also it depends if the dev choose to send the update to everyone or do a gradual deployment.

I’m able to reorder and edit favourites on my iPhone 11.

I found that deactivating apple intelligence and reactivating solved my heat issues. I deactivated it, restarted and reactivated it again. After a good night of sleep my heat issues were gone. Hope this helps.

Using Apple’s Podcast app, when listening to a podcast and using the forward or rewind buttons on the “now playing” box that comes up on the Lock Screen, there’s a nice little animation on the buttons.
 
Anyone else seeing a box like this when waking their device? (But before actually unlocking)

Perhaps it’s because I’ve turned on syncing Bookmarks in iCloud? I tried turning it off to see if that allows editing, nada..

Not sure, but I've reported the issue since this is affecting more than just me

15PM calling a 16P and second call does not ring on 16P unless you wait several, 10 to 15 seconds, before second call, after ending first call.

15PM looks normal on 2nd call and ring tone is heard. Also 16P fails to ring intermittently unless settings, sounds & haptics, ringtone and alerts is moved to initiate a ring tone, again intermittent on 16P.

Both iPhones iOS 26.0 (23A5260u).

Anyone having issue changing the homescreen wallpaper in the lockscreen? I can add a new one to both lockscreen and homescreen, but it doesn't offer to change the homescreen only. I have to do it in Settings> Wallpaper.

I am too. I think I was the first to mention this literally after the revised beta released. If I restart it works for like a minute then stops. Something on the revised beta broke it

You sure it’s not placebo
