    Is it better to update using Finder/iTunes vs over the air?

    Just curious. What method do you all use to update your phones to the new iOS? iTunes/Finder or over the air? I'm a bit old school and still update my phone using Finder on my Mac. I usually wait about a month or so after the release to update and opted for 18.7. There have been several...

    No recent similar reports - Safari micro stutters

    I don’t know what’s frustrating me more, the state of Apple software or the state of feedback. Theoretically, there should be more people filling feedback than ever, but for what? What are we actually taking the time out of our days for? What are we doing unpaid work for? Why have a public...

    Doing a 180 - Liquid Glass is actually fine

    Well guys, I've got to admit it. After being a liquid glass hater all summer I've finally come around, it's actually ok. It's definitely a new direction for Apple and I'm guessing that a lot of the unsuspecting public might be a bit confused or annoyed when they update, but after using it a bit...

    iOS 26 Like/Dislike Poll

    The contrast between different people's opinions on the Liquid Glass design is astonishing. Let's settle this. Please vote for whether or whether not you like the latest design changes, and make a comment if you have other thoughts, or there's something I missed.

    iOS 26 Messages Wallpapers

    Is there a way to set a wallpaper in messages so it’s just viewable for yourself? I read that a wallpaper you set is apparently viewable to the recipient in the text. I’d like to just customize for myself and not affect the other person.

    Alarms in iOs 26 do NOT show what the words are in the alarm....Is there a fix for this?

    Alarms in iOs 26 do NOT show what the words are in the alarm....Is there a fix for this? Before it would show (most of) the words on the alarm (ex. wake up! or reminding me of specific things) but now it doesn't. Is there a fix for this or do i have to hope for a update that will make it like it...

    26 will be a stinker

    The RC is still a mess, carrying over bugs even from the very first beta. I recently had to reinstall 18 and then update to 26, and my hopes that some of these bugs may be gone were shattered the moment I started using the phone, because I even encountered visual issues I only ever read about...

    Sleep Tracking messed up since updating to watchOS26

    I've been using the iOS 26 Beta since early July and have had no issues when my watch was still on watchOS 11 but since updating it on Tuesday to the release candidate the sleep tracking has been completely messed up saying I've been awake for much of the night or like last night barely...

    iOS 26 beta: satellite weather forecast live?

    Hi all! I'm heading to the backcountry this weekend, and know that iOS 26 will have 'weather updates via satellite', where in addition to satellite texting/emergency SOS, you can also request weather updates via satellite when you don't have any cellular connection. Does anyone running the...

    What’s your experience on “Adaptive Power”?

    I wonder what does “Adaptive Power actually achieves? Tried enabling it on and off both for quite some time, but seems the average consumption is the same. The bad thing is, all apps seems to get “killed” in the background much sooner, the good thing is it doesn’t limit AOD and 120hz. What are...

    iPhone as an appliance, with clear boring UI

    As an iPhone user, who is really into photography both on the phone and various other cameras, I want my iPhone to be a very powerful tool where the UI ‘gets out of the way’ as much as possible whilst I perform my desired tasks. The UI should be a thin, minimal layer that I notice as little as...

    A couple bugs I’m having in beta 2

    Here are a couple of bugs I’m having so far on beta 2 that are the only annoying bugs I’m having. 1. First bug, after first unlock of device, if I swipe back to notification center and try to change my wallpaper, it will work. After locking, I can no longer change it. Tapping and holding does...

    How do I get my lock screen widgets towards the top, under the clock?! Or can't you in iOS 26?

    Where my inside temperatures, humidity, and Philips Hue lights status is on the left. Then the current outside temperature with high for the day, and precipitation kind/chance on the right. They all go in the same box which in iOS 18, was always under the clock. I have the clock as small as it...

    Anyone else lost Apple Intelligence?

    Greetings fellas, I’m running iOS 26 Developer Beta 1 Revision, recently, I’ve noticed that Apple Intelligence has gone missing, in settings, it just tells me to plug in my iPhone and connect to WiFi. Is anyone experiencing this issue? Is it only for the iOS 26 Beta? What’s causing this issue?

    Still on the fence about Liquid Glass. Preview app thoughts.

    After spending some time with the new betas, I have to say — I’m still quite skeptical about the new Liquid Glass design language. Sure, the effects are nice in isolation. I like how menus and popups respond to touch with depth and a sense of fluidity. But applying Liquid Glass everywhere feels...
