iOS 26 Beta 2 Released |
Apple has launched the second beta version of iOS 26, and it’s full of smart features, new designs, and better ways to use your iPhone. Whether you're browsing, listening to music, or organizing your apps this update makes everything easier and smoother. Below are all the big changes you should know, written in simple words. Tap each headline to explore.
Safari Now Has Forward and Back Buttons at the Bottom
Apple has added forward and back buttons right at the bottom of Safari, even when you're using other apps like WhatsApp or Facebook. This means you can quickly go back and forth between websites without jumping out of the app you're in. It makes browsing faster and more comfortable for everyone.
Notes App Now Shows You Smart Tools When You Need Them
The Notes app is now smarter. When you’re writing or making a list, the toolbar changes by itself. If you're typing normal text, it shows text tools. If you’re making a checklist, it shows list tools. This helps you save time and tap less while writing or editing.
You Can Change Folder Colors in the Files App
Now, your Files app folders can match your iPhone’s color theme. The folder icons will take the same color as the rest of your phone’s system. This makes your screen look more neat and personal. It’s a small change, but it makes organizing fun.
Live Radio Widget Comes to the Home Screen
Apple added a new live radio widget that you can place on your home screen. With one tap, you can listen to streaming radio stations without opening the full Music app. Great for music lovers who want quick access to live content.
Transfer Your eSIM from Android to iPhone No Trouble!
Switching from Android to iPhone is now easier. With iOS 26 beta 2, you can transfer your eSIM during setup no need for complicated steps or calling support. This makes moving to iPhone fast and friendly for new users.
Recover a Broken iPhone Using Another iPhone or iPad
If your iPhone gets stuck or has problems, you no longer need a computer to fix it. You can use another iPhone or iPad nearby to help recover it. This new feature gives people more freedom to solve problems on their own.
Blue Badges Show Messages from Unknown People
Now in the Messages app, you’ll see blue badges for texts from people you don’t know and red ones for your contacts. This makes it super easy to spot who is messaging you and helps avoid spam or unwanted texts.
Wallet App Now Tracks Your Orders Too
The Wallet app can now track your online shopping orders using the details from your Mail app. So, if you order something online, Wallet can show the delivery status no need to switch between apps. Super useful for busy shoppers.
Camera App Gets Labels and Better Background Blur
The Camera app brings back helpful labels like “Night Mode Auto”, so you know what’s on. Also, widget backgrounds now have a nicer blur, making text easier to read. These small changes give your phone a cleaner, modern look.
Taking Screenshots and Editing Images Is Now Smoother
If you had trouble editing screenshots in the first beta, it's now fixed. Buttons like “Ask” and image options work properly. This makes it much easier to take, mark, and share screenshots perfect for work, study, or fun.
Message Details Are Clean and Easy to Understand
When you open a conversation and look at “Details,” you now only see what’s really there like photos, files, and links. Empty sections are hidden, so it’s faster to find what you need. Less mess, more focus.
Animations and Rounded Corners Make iPhone Feel New Again
Apple added small but lovely touches. You’ll see smoother animations when customizing your home screen, and corners on buttons now match your phone’s shape better. All these make your iPhone feel more premium and polished.
Final Words: A Friendly and Powerful Update
The iOS 26 beta 2 isn’t just about looks—it’s about making your iPhone easier and smarter to use. From better browsing and music to faster recovery and smoother design, this update helps users feel more in control.
