iOS 26 Beta 7 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[StumpyBloke]

I did on Settings. I'll keep searching. I wonder if this has been there all along and I'm just noticing it or if iOS 26 did it.

It’s been there all along in iOS 26. I love it personally.

just put the beta on my phone last night.

Messages keep showing up in my messages that are from a long time ago.

They don’t exist on any other device I have. Where are these messages coming from?

A bunch are showing up from October of last year. And a few from July of 2024

I delete them and they come back. I don’t get it.

The one chat had over 500 messages. I thought once you deleted texts, they were gone??

These messages were not here last night when I went to bed. I’m so confused.

Has anyone else been able to locate the "Recently Added" section in the Music App while in CarPlay?

And to think I thought beta 6 was ready for prime time… BETA 7?!?! Oh she READY ready.👏🏼

Icons refresh every time I switch from light to dark and the reverse. Heats up like crazy and slows when updating more than 1 app at a time. Spring board crashed this morning. But hey, might just be my 16 PM. IDK. Smooth other than those annoyances, but def doesn't seem ready for release.

It’s new to iOS 26 and as I said, I love it and thankfully it will stay I guess, because it’s still in the beta at this late state…

Wow. I am honestly not seeing any of that. Of course, the icons change when switching between light, dark, clear, tinted, but it's more like a color overlay on the screen - the icons themselves are not redrawn or refreshed. I don't recall any springboard crashes and I haven't had any heat issues to speak of. I'm on a 16 Pro Max.

I’m also unsure if I am liking the updated safari. Two presses to get to all my open tabs instead of one.

You can also just swipe up from the address bar

Whaaaaat.

I didn’t realize that was a thing.

I tried it twice and closed out of safari. I thought you were trolling at first lol.

No it’s true

The bar needs to be extended though, otherwise you end up swiping out of the app that’s true

Anyone experiencing bugs with app icons? Specifically, when using dark mode icons: if an app is in a folder it will show the correct icon when the folder is open however, if you close the folder the app reverts back to the light mode icon. If I remove the app from the folder it works fine.

Seeing the same. Not all apps, just some.
Take a look at Utilities > HP Smart in attached.
