iOS 26 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[Reeneman]

I wonder how apps like WhatsApp that have a toolbar on top of the keyboard will get the new one.

Good point

Holding off on updating until transparency in Widgy is fixed.

Never had a release day of a new iPhone OS where the download was so terrible slow as today
Not expecting any change regarding the RC but I want to update nevertheless.

For the redraws & Visual bugs. Did any of you guys experience this on iPadOS 26 as well?

Yes, still do.

The Passwords app.

beta was turned off, no option to turn it back on, still stuck on RC with no option to update. Restarted the phone, still no change.

Force quit Settings, that will bring your options back. Many have run into this.

Woah download is taking ages today

My phone is stuck on 6 hours remaining, had been up to 12. iPad was at 2 days at first. iPad is now done but phone is not moving. I may shut it down and try later.

If staying on the beta train, is there any point in installing the final instead of just waiting for the next beta?

You’ll save yourself a big mess if you just stay where you are. No improvements that I’ve seen, but a lot of headaches trying to download this turkey.

Updated from the rc, had stuttering and slowness on my iPhone 15 pro.

Force restarted it and was welcomed to the black screen with the white cable telling me to go and restore.

Awesome.

the rc was perfect for me.

I prefer this „let’s carry this“ issue instead of the squared notifications that we had for so many versions. Wasn’t it the entire iOS 18 phase?

So you need to DFU and start from scratch? Seems strange, since the RC was already the final release

Anyone?!!

Would you be able to try if this works?

Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, tap on My Watch, then Workout, and select Workout Playlist to choose your desired playlist.

Did you force restart while the device is plugged in? Because that's how you put the phone into Recovery Mode.

Same here. I'm on AT&T...

I'm on AT&T and have no issues with Messages (or any other app).

At this point, I'm sure that they know. It's more like they just don't care. Shoddy, sloppy work, and we line up to hand over our cash. #baaaaa

Force restarted it again and now it’s working again. Curious what changed from build 340 to 341.

I am at 2 hours and counting on my iPhone 16 ProMax to iOS 26. It says I still have 56 minutes remaining. Is that normal?

It depends on how your internet connection is. Go to speedtest.net and see what your speed is.

Not a fan of the new alarm design with the large stop button. It's as though whoever made it didn't realize that the buttons were different sizes for a reason.

 

[TimFL1]

I stand corrected. Thank you. I knew Apple could, but forgot it was only for Apple Stores.

Either way, correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't it still require a software update when you turn it on first time. "update software". Technically speaking, todays build day 1.

It will probably show you that there is a new build to update to but it‘s not mandatory. Doesn‘t hurt to update right away though.

Updated from the RC. iPad floating keyboard became unusable in iMessages (jumping) until a forced restart.
