No IPSW yet… 🫠

 

[Tokenfreak]

iOS 26 weighed in at 9.1 GB for me, with iPadOS 26 being 14.91 GB

Lord Banglazed has put iOS 26 beta 1 thread, let’s move there. Mac rumors mods will eventually separate everything to the iOS 26 category.

IPSW files are out! 😊✌️

See you all on the flip side!

Downloading to an iPhone 11 this year - that's the only truly spare iPhone I have. Kind of old but I guess it will be good to test how the OS runs on the lowest supported hardware. Won't run on XS I guess?

No XS support, it's iPhone 11 and up.

Someone else has made a thread like this, can you tell them to come here

I was really hoping for the "stage manager" feature for the iPhone. Might be something they will release with new phones instead or iOS 27

Swiss UBS, Bunq and Sparkasse App seems to work. Push TAN seems laggy but maybe because of the not used for Long time 14PM. Perfect on iPad and 16PM.

Wallet seems to have issues with the cards. They need to be removed and re-added to work again.

Saw this message on the iPadOS Journal app. It mentions "iOS 19," I wonder how late they decided to go with the iOS 26 name.

Rly? Wow they didn’t even know about this… I’m sure it’ll confuse people

Installing on my iPad. Really wanted to install it on my phone but they didn’t do enough to motivate me, not worth the bugs. ipad actually has some exciting updates though.

 

[TgeekB]

Updated both my iPhone 16 Pro and iPad. So far so good.

Now that the Apple OS has unified version naming scheme, I have a feeling the number on iPhone and iPad will be dropped.

iPad
iPad Air
iPad Pro

iPhone
iPhone Air
iPhone Pro
