iOS 26.5 “Pride” Luminance Wallpaper Collection Not Installing
I downloaded the newly released "Pride" Luminance wallpapers collection from Apple for iOS 26.5. It's showing a ✔️ mark on the "Add New Wallpaper" page, but I can't see the actual wallpapers. I downloaded iOS 26.5 just for these wallpapers, even though I read it has battery life issues! Also...- IHateiOS26

News app giving double notifications with 26.5
Anyone else getting duplicate notifications from the Apple News app? This started with the second to last public beta of 26.5 and exists still for me with the RC.

Is iOS 26 required for the iPhone 17?
I know it’s irreversible, but is there any way? Like many of my friends, I’m now considering switching from the iPhone to another phone because of iOS 26. Should we just hope that they’ll drop this (LG, iOS26) in future OS updates? Or should we wait another 15 years? -
Persistent notification for not using iCloud
Since “upgrading” to iOS 26, I have a persistent phantom notification in Settings. It’s displayed on the Settings icon, but not inside the settings app. I’ve have made a clean install of iOS 26.4 and it still happens after I sign into the App Store. I don’t use iCloud and in iOS 18 I could just... -

Today I witnessed someone trying to switch to Android because of iOS 26 and its problems!
I knew this was happening and could happen, but I witnessed it for the first time. I'm afraid Apple is still defending what it's doing. -

Hey all, I'm posting because I used to be involved in the jailbreaking scene quite a lot back in the golden days (iOS 2 - 7 era), and have dabbled with jailbreaking iOS 9, but I dropped off for a while.

Even With a New UI Head, Liquid Glass is Here to Stay
There seems to be this belief floating around that with the departure of Alan Dye, Liquid Glass is going to be abandoned or significantly stripped back with OS ‘27. But not so fast… From Gurman’s newsletter this morning: “Q: Do you think Apple’s design team shake-up will lead to user interface...- Lounge vibes 05

iOS 26.1 phone haptics no longer works
In iOS 26.0 and 26.0.1, I would get haptics for phone calls whenever a call is connected or dropped. I loved this feature. Now with iOS 26.1, that is not working for me.
