iOS 26 Speculation Thread

[Apple Mac Daz]

No WatchOS showing yet

Wow that’s lovely 🥰
Still think the huge update size, at least the number that’s listed, is a bug. Nevertheless. Happy updating

 

[LutzRFrank]

Wow, it is out!

Just wanted to say “not you too mocking us” … but yay

Anyone lost the beta option in settings?

 

[Reeneman]

I wonder if this is the one that's safe to jump in. Nervous that my core apps like ChatGPT will break with one of these betas.

Don’t think so. Not at this point. We’re not at DB 1-2 anymore.

9.69 GB, iPhone 16 Pro. I’m going in!

Kudos if so 😀

Let’s goooooo

9,6Gb in my 15 Pro

1.67Gb is the size I downloaded before preparing the installation.

 

[iSuzan]

Preparing to install still…

 

[Reeneman]

Thrilled for the changes. Guess this will be one of the last iOS 26 beta with any (if there are any) visible changes.

 

[DDustiNN]

Download is suuuuuper slow today… still says 17 mins remaining. Usually the download only takes a few minutes.

If there would be a bit less stutter, that would be enough for me.
But for this I will only judge tomorrow, after I give my iPhone a bit time to „whatever it does after an update“ …

Well that’s a nice surprise!

Some re-indexing and stuff.
I think positive. Regarding the evolution from DB 1 to 5 there was a clear progress in terms of fluidity, battery and stability.

Yeah that’s all I need and I’ll be happy.

how close you were haha (23A5318c)

Before you give them too much credit, it's a different build number.

 

[LutzRFrank]

if its now really 23A5320C we have to give @Ladin007 the official license to 'predict'

EDIT: (even promised not editing anymore) ... ok, 318c ... 2 builds less... hmm, ok - maximum a ladin006.5

Ahh okay
