After closing Safari completely and reopen it seems to be normal and is showing the whole address

Sorry if this sounds basic, but how do you initiate a Facetime Audio call on iOS 26? When you go to the Contacts app and you click on the Facetime button, it defaults to Facetime Video which I do NOT want. When you click on the call button it defaults to a mobile call which I do NOT want either.

If you hold your finger on the "call" icon, it should open a list.

Also, in Settings / Apps / Phone, you can set the default calling app to Facetime, although I think once you've done the above and selected Facetime audio, it'll default to that next time you just tap the call icon.

Press and hold the call button for FT audio call option to appear

Very pleased to get this thankyou from Apple. I've had responses a few times before from beta feedback. Common note to the doubters: Apple does look, listen, and sometimes respond. :) Always report bugs, and don't hesitate to send suggestions.

"Hi Robert,

As a result of your feedback, there are software changes in the latest update, build 23A5318c,23R5340a,25A5338b, that have resolved this issue.

Feedback ID FB18686809, Some screens in the phone/contact app are totally illegible due to being incredibly pale"
 
On my iPhone 15 with Compact bar what happens is that I see the full [core] website address when the bar is in its smallest (passive mode), yet it gets weirdly right-aligned from the end when the bar is in full (its largest mode), as in the pics below. Reported to Apple.
I’m pretty sure that is intentional, so that “legitimate.com.phishing.net” doesn’t misleadingly show as “legitimate.com”.

Not a fan that passcode was added in the last few betas or so when checking deleted or hidden photos. Before it was just Face ID. We should have a toggle to allow passcode or not for that.
Passcode access was available since iOS 18 as well, just need Face ID to fail:

Installed beta 6 on my 16 PM. It’s smooth, no problems, performance is great, all apps work, but the battery life is crap. I hope that beta 7 will fix that.

I have the iPhone 16e, which because of Apple’s modem really does have incredible battery life. But not anymore lol. I used to get home and have 50-60% left, could literally seemingly use it all day on 18.6. I charge 2-3x daily on the iOS 26 beta, and even in the battery section it says that my usage almost every hour I check, is 20-30% higher than average to what it was.

I tried to restore my iPhone to iOS 18.6 with a windows computer but I have an error 3602 with iTunes. Do you know what it means ?

ChatGPT:

“What causes iTunes error 3602 on Windows

From what I found, error 3602 can happen when restoring or updating an iPhone — especially if the device has a work profile (like those installed by company IT departments for managed devices).

One example case: An iPhone SE with a work profile triggered 3602 during restore in iTunes. Removing the profile resolved it. (source: Reddit)”

I have to say. I’m very very impressed with the latest beta. Usually I hold off until RC or official release but couldn’t wait anymore.
This is very very useable and stable. Considering it’s an all new design and UI it very good. Didn’t imagine Apple would be able to ship this kind of performance on the first release. Considering there’s almost a month until release it’s looking to be a very good initial release.
 
Ok, but then perhaps they could make it scroll within the address bar, so we could still see the whole thing.
That would be an option, though personally I dislike scrolling text (Reduce Motion would hopefully turn it off) and am fine with tapping or swiping on text to see it in full when needed.
