Very immersive in a psychedelic sort of view. 😋

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but have any of you had issues with the screen jumping around in Notes? Particularly when you touch it for some reason? Like to edit text.

Beta 2 out now!

I may finally jump in. I have had experience with DEV betas before. The DB1 iOS releases for the past two years were pretty stable. I was on the fence about this one. I know DB2 can be worse, but I have had my trigger finger on the update button.

iOS 26 DB1 on my iPad has been working mostly great.

Awaiting initial impressions from those of you downloading and installing today.

Edit: wrong thread.

Downloaded Beta 2 onto my iPhone 16 Pro Max. I skipped DB 1

First thing I noticed is that the phone is running warm.

Other than that, the phone seems to be very stable. I made a few phone calls, did some tweaks. No issues yet.

Just switch it back to classic. It’s right there at the top.

I’ve installed it on an old phone, so interested to see how the Beta evolves

My Search seems to be glitched. Can anyone else get a different result when searching for Screen Capture in Settings search or system search?

Search doesn’t work for anything in Settings on my iPad Pro.

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

Weirdly, I am finding any new bookmarks cannot be edited. (If I directly add it as a Favorite from the iPadOS Share Menu, it can be edited. I haven’t tested on macOS yet.) All of my pre-iOS 26 bookmarks can be edited. Only new bookmarks are immutable. New bookmarks are behaving like Reading List items. The secondary menu on the bookmark gives the option to save for offline, but my preexisting (and editable) bookmarks do not present that option.

They may claim to be “Apple Authorised” just because they sell a few iphones.

Check for authorised repairer

They are, I'm not that daft.

Well authorised repairers should not use third party batteries without warning you, they need to be struck off. The whole point about being authorised is they can get hold of the real thing.
